[QUOTE]Originally posted by J: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [qb]Like G2000 said, the two Borg had already poked a holo-character with their laser pointers, and found him less than human. So they *could* have guessed the gun was holographic in nature, too.[/qb][/QUOTE]Actually Timo I need to beg to differ... They may have assumed that the gun was a holographic projection and adapted but then they were wrong because it was replicated and thus a Real Weapon. But they could have assumed that it was a real gun and adapted but then they were wrong because it was holographic and with the safeties off the computer would have created a "force field" [read a small shield] shaped like a built it when it came in contact with real matter. If the borg did not adapt to the weapon with a full envelope personal shield [in short their shield didn't cover their back side, it covers the front side only] then the holo-emitters would have been able to create the bullet shape shield on the other side of the borg's shield [because it would not have activated until something hit it, and because the "holo-bullet" was not real it did not activate the borg's shield]. Thus two dead drones. Having said all that I'd like to add that if phasers can be replicated [I don't know if they can or not, it sounds to me that they can't because those phaser crystals are grown] then a using a phaser from a holodeck will have the same exact effects that using the tommy gun did. Two dead drones. [/QB][/QUOTE]
