[QUOTE]Originally posted by Montgomery: [QB] The way I see it Picard was able to destroy the cube in First Contact due to a residual telepahic link to the Borg Collective Consciousness. He was able to, if he focussed, perceive some of the internal commands being circulated in the "brain" of the Borg. Thus he could anticipate, if he waited until [i]just[/i] the right moment, a window of opportunity when a small section of ship would lose shielding/be regenerating/house a critical root command group for just those few seconds. Lucky for him. But what about everyone else? Well, if the Borg consciousness can be sensed by Picard there are only two possibile ways of it working. Technological transmissions, (they were "active over a subspace domain similar to a transporter" according to Data in BoBW2) If so, build a receiver to tap in and get useful info in battles. Perhaps tying in an "Interface" VR probe would allow swift reaction-time responses. Alternatively, it could have been "true" telepathy, which could be difficult to harness with technology. So... (and this is the hilarious bit), perhaps Starfleet should equip each ship in a battle group with a few telepaths to tap in and anticipate. Anyone who suggests Vulcan telepathy is due to prehistoric intereference from Species 8472 will get sat on. [IMG]http://flare.solareclipse.net/wink.gif[/IMG] [/QB][/QUOTE]
