Read the card and then ask again, if necessary.

Captured:
Seeds or plays on table. During your turn, your non-Borg crew or Away Team may capture one opposing personnel present (random selection) if you have more SECURITY present than opponent, or more hand weapons present than opponent. OR During any player's turn, you may capture one personnel just stunned in battle by your non-Borg SECURITY. Discard incident after either use.

Borg can use those and capture opposing personnel, right?
I didn't find anything in a cursory search that says you can't. The big thing is that capture is not abduct (and definitely isn't assimilate), so the question becomes "why does a Borg player want to capture when they have such better tools at their disposal?" :D

At the right time, perhaps after some victim opponent found out.
Perhaps.

Perhaps not.


All questions asked by me, are, of course, theoretical in nature.

:D
Theoretical until KaiserFest this weekend anyway... :shifty:

The only reason I can see is "You may not initiate battle against personnel you have captured, unless a card allows or requires it."
