STFU, Admiral. If you can't explain why warp-ramming isn't used in a manner consistent with suspension of disbelief, then we have no CHOICE but to assume it is either not possible or not powerful.

WRONG!

BORG V.O.: Species 8472 has penetrated Matrix 010, Grid 19. 8 planets destroyed. 312 vessels disabled. Four milion six hundred twenty one Borg eliminated. We must seize control of the Alpha Quadrant vessel and take it into the alien realm.

Emphasis mine.

7 OF 9: Insufficient. Out latest tactical projections indicate that the war will be lost by then


Real assured of victory eh?


and the fed's just don't like that sort of thing...
Naturally, suicide isn't likable. And you just proved the Federation will not use this tactic.

You could point out that starcraft is just a game and HEAVILY bases its tech on other sci-fi series. Aliens mostly. The ion cannon decal is leeched straight from ESB! Its the same cannon made smaller!

Listen to the drop ship - "in the pipe, 5x5" straight from aliens. They have no standing because SC is made as a private joke to sci-fi fans, and not as it's own stand alone series to be compared against the sci-fi it stole from!

When i play it i think, "how cool is it that i play a game with every sci-fi mixed into one," rather than, "oh how superior is this holy empire blizzard created."

the only way to solve this is a battle.net game. I will kick their ass.
