Nicole and Vincent took General Robespierre to see the devastation near Rome. The Scouts remains cleaning up the mess. They have not engaged the city. They just stand there bobbing up and down slowly like a prize fighter over its prey. We know now what they are capable of.
The sad truth is that we cannot defeat them once they are on the ground. We need to avoid a ground war at all costs. The scouts did more damage than anyone could have imaged, particularly when considered against a full squadron of heavily Romulan insurgent groups and then with the defence forces of Commander T'Ros standing along side, the loses were still incredible.
The Borg is reorganizing and restructuring but right now, it appears that they are hell bent on sending a message rather than full on invasion. Their method is clear. Make us all afraid. It will influence our decisions and our defences.
The truth is they were making progress. We are afraid and so far we are alone.
I just needed to clear my head... To sit and think.
