So what would YOU do in that situation, thread readers? Your enemy has better weapons, better shields, is faster, more agile. If you go to warp he'll detect it and chase you down in minutes, so you can't run. Without resorting to technobabble, what could you do to win?
Next, on Macgyver!

Anyway...

launch remote-controlled shuttles with torps strapped to their hulls and do swarm tactics against the thing. Do bugs have aft-firing weapons or 360 degree coverage? I can't remember. Super-charge the phasers, lay minefields...

Try to match shield frequencies with the bug. Fly in point blank and use your shield to cancel theirs out. Then begin beaming their crew out into space.

When has Quantuming Tech to de-Quantum the enemies' Tech ever failed? :Nerd:

Hmmm, we should have heard Janeway make this order in the middle of a Borg attack: "Frag it, Tuvok, just Quantum them!"

Hell, something similar was what finally brought the E-D down!

A kid with a cap gun could bring the fracking E-D down.

Hey... for all the near misses and reset-button recreations, the E-D did manage to make it into the movie era before finally succumbing to the inevitable.

Hey Graham, just out of curiousity, do you have any other pics of the "Frankenstien Fleet"? Like model pics or something?
