You are going to be on the defensive for the entire early game. As you will use more city districts and less able to use specialized districts for resources and research. Of course in relation to your population density.Īs your unicomplexes fill up, They will become more and more a jack of all trades (energy, minerals, nanites, crew, alloys, etc). And prioritize this over the Research Districts.In the late game you will gradually trade off those research districts for Drone Hives (Cities), and then trade off the resource specialization districts. As each Unicomplex can only have 1 Data Node (Research Lab).Also build the districts appropriate to each specialization.

Take all Research Node Districts for all Unicomplexes to boost research. You shift focus to specializing each complex Put Starbases on those systems.Īfter you have Unicomplex #4 (or how I like to label it U02 01) set up. In order to specialize your Unicomplex Districts. And secure two systems with Deuterium Deposits (40). Now at the start you are focusing on mineral production to get 9 Unicomplexes up. Take the 'The Flesh Is Weak' Ascension perk for +33% pop assembly speed. This benefits your science vessels which is only important in the early game, and benefits research.Once you have completed the Perfection tradition tree.

Next take all traits in the Perfection traditions tree. Second tradition is the first Synchronicity tradition giving you +25% pop assembly speed. Your first tradition will be the first Assimilation tradition allowing you to build Unicomplexes in 3 systems. Other resources are of no importance unless it is to keep your economy afloat. And next most important objective is to get your Research & Unity as high as possible. The reason you will build 9 Unicomplexes as soon as possible is to benefit from the effects of pop assembly at each unicomplex. You will spawn the Borg Conglomerate (Rebels). If you have 10+ colonies & 100 years into the game. NO MORE THAN THIS AND NO OTHER COLONIES!!! Your first priority is to set up 9 Unicomplexes. Habitable Worlds: 1x (recommended by STNH-Ultimate-Galaxy)Īfter you've started. Tech/Tradition Cost: 5x (recommended by STNH-Ultimate-Galaxy) (More pops = more ppl to support empire administration and to work against empire sprawl) Ultimate Galaxy with Balance will make a difference as far as expansion and administrative capacity goes.

I am using the following mods alongside with STNH. After a few restarts on version 2.5 of STNH I am fairly confident on exactly how you should play the Borg.
