What is Borg Sphere?

Powers of Borg Sphere

Propulsion - Borg Spheres were capable of both warp and transwarp velocities, thanks partly to the Borg Collective's network of transwarp corridors and hubs. When a Borg Sphere enters a transwarp conduit, it projects a structural integrity field ahead of itself to compensate for the extreme gravimetric shear. To compensate for the extreme temporal stress while traveling through these corridors, and remain in temporal sync, a chroniton field was also projected through specially designed conduits. Borg Spheres did not present with the twin warp nacelle configuration utilized by nearly all warp-capable species, and the technology by which a Borg Sphere achieves warp speed is unknown.

Hull - A Borg Sphere featured both the ability to rapidly regenrate itself after damage and adaptive armoring/non-traditional shielding. This made destroying Borg vessels exceedingly difficult, as most weapons employed against them tended to either not work at all, or to become completely useless after a few shots.

Armament - Unlike the larger Borg Cubes, Spheres seemed to only possess the Borg Tractor Beam and Cutting Beam. The Tractor Beam was capable of draining shields and even ripping unportected starships apart by itself. The Cutting Beam could either slice into a ship with pinpoint precision, or it could be used to disintegrate large portions of an enemy vessel. Additionally, it could be fired with the tractor beam as a single attack, with the cutting beam manifesting inside the area of effect of the tractor beam.
