Post by UbiquitousIn this video, We will be finding out could the Dominion survive a Borg
Invasion. We will be looking out their technology, ships, and military might.
We will also review the reason why the Borg only attack in small forces.

Both Federation and the Dominion are powerful but I think the Federation has the
advantage when it comes to the Borg compared to the Dominion, mainly with being
more adaptable and thinking outside the box, and even thought the Dominion are
adaptable, it's a very top-down structure that's controlled like a dictatorship,
our own history has shown that dictatorships are less adaptable compared to more
open systems.
Those bug ships of the Dominion would be like cannon fodder for the Borg and
that's before the Borg adapt to them, we've seen how powerful a Borg cube is
against much more powerful ships that a bug ships would need a heck of a lot of
numbers to do any real damage or kamikaze runs, but even then, the damage done
might not be enough against the Borg once they adapt.
As for the shapeshifters, they work quite well against other races but I'm not
sure how effective they would be with the Borg, I suspect not as effective as they
are against other races where they create paranoia and get races fighting off each
other, that wouldn't work with the Borg.
Seriously, if the Borg sent just 10 Borg cubes, that would likely do crazy amount
of damage to a fleet of Dominion ships, and even if the Dominion were to win, the
Borg can come back with far more firepower that it would take the Dominion time to
regroup, even with the impressive ability of the Dominion to do that.
I think in the end, the Dominion is about overwhelming force, I don't think that
will be very effective against the Borg once they adapt and to take the Borg on,
you have to think outside the box, become more creative and adaptive and even
thought the Dominion have shown they can do that, it's a very top down dictator
like structure with very few races that run the organisation, that likely makes it
much easier for the Borg to adapt to compared to the Federation that's countless
races with different ideas.
Regardless, if the Borg were to come in overwhelming force and not just sending 1
Borg cube, I doubt the Federation or the Dominion could beat that, but given
enough time to adapt, I think the Federation would stand a better chance, but in
truth, we've never really seen the Borg going on the offence with more than a few
ships and most of the time it's just 1 ship, so imagine 100 Borg cubes, all
adapting on the battlefield with a single mind, I can't imagine the Dominion
beating that or the Federation for that matter.
