Vid - Blockade vs. Borg

Watch the Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZu_Y8Zw2Ds

The Phoenix Division runs Starbase Blockade against the Borg, and saves all twenty-one freighters! The ships on this team consist of a Risian Corvette (One), Wells Class Temporal Vessel (Rig), two Battlecruisers (Ten and Mara), and a Nebula Class Science Vessel (Lizzy). Great work everyone!

Aspects of teamwork to note:

1. If a freighter needs attention, we mention it with a number. This is determined by where positions on the mini-map would fall if it were an analog clock face. In this video, we only called attention to "3" or where you'd find the 3 o'clock position on a clock.

2. Focus goes primarily to the freighters, not the Borg. You will see numerous times when someone heals freighters with Transfer Shield Strength, Hazard Emitters, or Engineering Team, and some buffing of the freighters with Tactical Team and Attack Pattern: Delta.

3. Because focus is on the freighters, not the Borg, the goal is not always to kill the Borg since all we need to do is draw their attention or use Tractor Beam Repulsors to push them out of combat range.

4. Borg Cubes are dangerous to freighters. Since this video was taken from an escort's perspective, you will see that these get priority, preferably destroying them to letting them continue shooting at the freighters.

There was an attempt to get a demorecord version of this mission, but that ended up with too many issues to work properly in the editor.
