General Korok

by Matthew Zinno, Staff Writer

5th December 2014

The Borg expansion gave us not only a large update to the [Bor] affiliation, but also a good number of de-assimilated Borg. The kids, the triplets, and Riley and Orum … but none of the "dissidents" from Unimatrix Zero. This lack became more noticeable in the more recent Life from Lifelessness expansion, where we got a Renegade Borg Sphere, with lore indicating a matching commander. And now, four years later, we have that commander: General Korok!

From his pre-assimilated existence, he has OFFICER and a command star, as well as a solid skill set. He's a general, which will help with Executive Authorization and Dignitaries and Witnesses. And besides his de-assimilation affiliation of [NA] , he also maintains the affiliation of his heritage, like Orum, and Riley Frazier before him. From his period as a Borg, he has a Defense subcommand and a [DQ] icon, plus a persona name: Six of Ten (same as his card title in Second Edition).

Due to his various icons and characteristics, he can fit into several decks quite naturally.

He's a , so he can be used with any affiliation deck, whether Kazon, Vidiian, Hirogen, or Voyager. As a Borg, he allows the use of certain verb cards like Cortical Node Implant and Starting Over, and provides an alternate way past some dilemmas, like Invasive Procedures.
He's a Borg, so he can be played to the Alpha Quadrant with Followers of the One. If you play this with just Borg and androids (rather than splashed into some affiliated deck), he might be one of the few sources of OFFICER. Don't forget that his ship (the Renegade Borg Sphere) can report there too!
He's a , so you can use him in a Voq'leng deck (and he's only the third OFFICER there), and with Establish Settlement. To wit, see the deck below.
