Forum Team Up

[BenPass]

So, after seeing the concept in Hobbit's thread about weapons, I thought I'd make a thread for you to list who you would team up with in a fight. So, I'll post a scenario, and you tell me who you'd want to team up with and why.

The Scenario:

Nothing so expected as zombies. Instead, BORG!

Here's the deal guys, the Borg have come back in time in another effort to wipe out the human race and in turn, ensure that the Federation is never formed. The Borg Collective has made landfall in Antarctica after their cube was damaged coming back into our time. They are now setting up shop there where they will assimilate the strong. All of humanity has been called upon to use their skills in an effort to repel the invasion. Each team will be comprised of two people, to ensure that if they get overwhelmed, they can kill each other and prevent the spread of the Collective. Who will you team up with?

Ben Ben Ben...the Borg?

That is a seriously strong enemy...especially for mere humans with current technology.

I am at a loss.

I guess me and Bear Grylls?

 


A partner of a forum member?

granted, in the movie it was holographic but still I think Tommy Guns/firearms in general would be effective, as well as melee weapons.  I can't recall an instance when the Borg adapted to a kinetic strike, only energy weapons.

lol, I figured I wanted to do an apocalyptic enemy, but zombies have been overdone. As to the team up, yeah, I'm talking about forum members. Who would you choose?

Good point. I mean, their shields tended to be honed to the energy weapons. I'm not sure what exactly would happen with kinetic weapons, but let's just assume that we have found something that works against the Borg. Who would you choose to fight with against the Borg?

[Master Rel]

Hmmm I would pick...ummm...ME!

lol

I would pick someone with some martial training, some military training, and that I would not want to strangle in person   


Hmmm Lucien Kane I would think

Canonically, Borg have not been seen to adapt to any type of physical attack.  Worf dispatches several with rifle butts and his mek'leth.  Technically the bullets from Picard's Tommy gun were photonic, the holodeck safeties were off so they were basically real.  Nothing on the wiki says they can adapt to physical attacks that I've seen so I think our weapons would be effective.  The problem comes from their technology and strength and unrelenting behavior.  They'd also develop armor at some point without a doubt.

As for a teamup, I'd be dead weight, so I'll let someone choose me if they wish.  I suppose I could coordinate things but that's about it.

Common sense tells me to partner up with Nonymous, Artorius, Lucien, Rel, or Jev, but I seriously doubt I would be able to get along with any of them. Besides, I usually throw common sense out of the window anyway So that leaves me with...

BEN PASS!!!

This is going to be like Army of Two: The 40th Day all over again

Nice man I think we could do some serious damage! I've got a bunch of friends here on the forum, and would gladly work with any of them. All that said, I think Manny's Trek experience might help too. Maybe we just need a whole saberforum squad

[Master Nero Attoru]

That's a silly question... Artorius of course  Better watch out, Borg...

I agree.  There are plenty of folks on here I'd pick if I couldn't go with MAV, you included.  Forum team, ASSEMBLEEEEEEE!!!!

[TheHobbitofDune]

I consider everyone here to be a friend, except... Lucien and I have had our fair share of heated arguments, Rel and I would be an odd combo by default, I think I could get along with Nonymous but I don't know him well enough, Artorius would probably ditch me for Nero, and Jev would... I have no clue.

Of course, a forum group would be the best option. We would be unstoppable.

I'll Snipe if you'll be my spotter.

That is a brilliant plan.

I call SOTJ. Knowing a person - and their combat capalities - IRL makes the choice way easier. Almost too easy, actually

Exactly, that was my approach with MAV.

[TheHobbitofDune]

But I don't know any of you IRL  

Though, I swear, Nero looks exactly like an old teacher that I hated. Don't worry though, you're awesome
