Locutus of Borg

Modiphius adds a new miniature and two bonus 15-page adventure PDFs to its Borg Cube Bundle. Your resistance may be futile!

Back in early June, we reported that the Star Trek Adventures pre-order had begun, and while a bit pricey, the content appears to be worth the purchase. Modiphius has made an announcement that it has added the Locutus of Borg mini plus 2 bonus 15-page Adventure PDFs to the Borg Cube Collector’s Edition. Here is what they had to say.

Called “the coolest box in gaming history” by Geek & Sundry, the massive Borg cube collector’s boxed set already contains the exclusive Lore miniature, plus a slew of other accessories for the Star Trek Adventures RPG, including the 368-page collector’s edition core rulebook, four sets of 32mm scale miniatures, three sets of Star Trek Adventures dice, Threat & Momentum tokens, a pad of 50 character & ship sheets, a poster of the Alpha and Beta Quadrants, the giant Borg cube Gamemaster screen with 6 laminated reference sheets for bridge positions and rules reference, and a 40-compartment foam tray for miniatures. Each Borg cube is uniquely numbered from 1 to 1701 with an official Star Trek Adventures hologram, with numbers 1-1000 only available at Modiphius.com. They are available for pre-order until 31st August 2017 at Modiphius.com/Star-Trek and in your friendly local gaming stores (£395.00 GBP/$650 USD), or fans can pick up the Borg drone bundle (£249.99 GBP / $322 USD).

Welcome to your new assignment, Captain. Your continuing mission, to explore strange new worlds, seek out new life and new civilizations, to bodly go where no one has gone before…

Star Trek Adventures takes you to the Final Frontier of the Galaxy, where new discoveries await keen explorers of Starfleet.
