Since Ship of Heroes is not shy about promoting itself as “superheroes meets Star Trek,” it stands to reason that the Borg would somehow get tossed into the mix, too.
In Ship of Heroes, the Borg are actually the Prometheans, a faction of deadly cyborgs that were created when a scientist combined magic and cybernetics to great effect. It worked well enough until, you know, the killings began.
The dev team said that it’s not slacking off in its design for this faction: “The manufactured arms, legs, eyes, etc. of the Prometheans were all created specifically for Ship of Heroes. For example, a player can see through the legs of the Promethean Firebrand below because her legs are sophisticated props — we did not begin with human legs and just dunk her lower body in cyber paint and call it good.”
Witches – but they have shown a timeline and tracked progress and shown their work as they hit each milestone.
and there is quite a bit more about the Prometheans
I really hope this somehow sees the light of day, these guys have some good ideas, but unfortunately there’s little indication that they have anything else, if people had concrete technical information there would probably be more interest, i feel it’s illogical to expect the players to fund the game, but not giving them precise details about the progress of the game, if they treated “the crowd” in a similar way they would treat any other investor maybe things would go better, this assuming they have more than just interesting ideas.
Looks like those Prometheans come with all sorts of attachments.
The Borg
The first thing that popped in my head upon seeing the header image…
Maximillian!
Give me Vincent or Old Bob to counter.
RIP, Old B.O.B.
It’s remarkable how Maximillian’s record for menace to points of articulation ratio has held up over the years.
