Death Star or Borg Cube?
Now I have not been here that long and don't know if someone posted this yet if so I want to make a more current one and I really want to see what people think. So Cube or Death?

So...
Is there anyway to impress upon people the necessity of reading the main site before they post? That would be nice.

You really are new. I suggest that you do read the older posts as this has been done before. The result wouldn't even be funny. Unless you're a megalomaniac Imperial in control of the Death Star of course.
Marcus Aurelius: ...the Swedish S-tank; the exception is made mostly because the Swedes insisted really hard that it is a tank rather than a tank destroyer or assault gun
Ilya Muromets: And now I have this image of a massive, stern-looking Swede staring down a bunch of military nerds. "It's a tank." "Uh, yes Sir. Please don't hurt us."

Resistance is Futile
It wouldn't be a contest, really. The Death Star would vaporize any (Borg) ship long before it got close enough to fire back. Not only that, but the Death Star could destroy any arbitrarily sized fleet of (Borg) ships long before they could bombard it enough to bring down its shields.
Any battle would go something like this:
DS Sensor Operator: Sir, we're picking up one-thousand sensor contacts at long range. We can't identify them yet, but they have armed weapons.
DS Communications Officer: Sir, the enemy fleet is transmitting a message. I'm putting it through now.
Over the speakers: We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships... (Rest of Badass Borg speech).
DS Commander: Target them and open fire with all surface weapons.
DS Fire Control: Aye, sir. All weapons firing now.
(10 Seconds Later)
DS Fire Control: Sir, all Borg ships have been destroyed.
Add 50 seconds onto the battle for a one-thousand ship fleet of Star Wars grade ships, and that's being generous at that.

Roger Murtaugh: Why have you got to make things so complicated?
Martin Riggs: I don't make things complicated, that's just the way things get all by themselves.

Not only done to death...but if you read the site you get the slightest hint of power difference.
