Studies show that men think about sex every 7 seconds. I do my best to eat hotdogs in under 6, just so things don't get weird.

Q, feeling curious one morning, decided to transport 100 Borg Cubes to the Halo Universe. He put them in just before the Covenant made contact with Humanity, so both are at their full strength.

Keep in mind, this means the Halo Array has not been discovered.

Now, will the Halo Universe be able to beat the Borg, or will all be assimilated and all resistance futile?

Most of what I say is sarcasm, the rest is of the highest intellect.

Flood infects the assimilated flood borg, and so on, and so on, inevitable cycle.

Remember that the Borg adapts insanely quickly only 10 Borg would have to be infected before the Borg to figure out a solution

Do you really want to know?

They adapt to weapons and such, not virulent infectious monsters born from your potential nightmares.

Though they are saturated with nanobots designed to alter their DNA. Would this protect them from Flood infection?

They are also more machine than flesh they could more easily find a way to repeal the flood

The Flood'll just force the DNA to be usable and cover the machinery in Flood goop.

That or they'll just pop those off.

I don't think they could. They couldn't do that with Johnson.

My signature is rather loopy and elegant... I don't see a way to replicate this in text form. Do italics work? Yes, they do

The UNSC wouldn't be at full strength; The Insurrection.

So, now that the Flood is handled, do you think the Covenant or Forerunner defenses could stop them?

No.

If you're a zombie and you know it, bite your friends.

The Flood Theory of Deterioration: q(p)=(qi)e^(-p/r)

Where q(p) is the quality of the thread as a function of p posts, (qi) is the inital quality of the first post, p is the amount of posts and r is the e-peen of the original poster.

I'd say the Borg. Their ability to adapt is just insane and one of their greatest assets.

There was only one species the Borg was unable to assimilate. Species 8472. The only reason the Borg couldn't assimilate them is their DNA was triple helix instead of the usual double helix. So it was far too complex.

What about the Prometheans?

Its only a matter of time until the Borg come across Requiem.

Starfleet is more advanced than any of the armies in the Halo universe except forunner and they got their ass handed to them by the Borg

Borg don't adapt to LEAD, so UNSC rofl stomp.

If Janeway can beat the Borg, the Halo Universe should not have a problem.

The Borg also seem quite adept at adding technological uniqueness to their collective as well as biological. I doubt the Prometheans would give them much of a bother either.

No. Weapons can only really be used once on a borg, not much can beat them. unless you got all of the borg together within range of a halo and than shot them all, all at once.

And also all the Borg would have to do is tap into Forunner tech and they would have all the knowledge that they had acquired through their existence same thing for the Prometheans.

Which brings up another point. What happens when a Cube encounters one of the seven rings? Would the Monitor get assimilated too?
