The CC is clearly too BIGOTED to draft many new Borg-themed cards, so I'm going to be the change I want to see in the world.
[P]Outpost Delta Five, Investigate Destruction
[AQ] 35
Astrometrics, Diplomacy, Security, Cunning>34, and (Intelligence or Law)
Region: Neutral Zone. While each non-headquarters mission you command is a Region: Neutral Zone mission, each ship you command at a Region: Neutral Zone mission is Shields +2.
"If we go to war, let us be sure it is for the right reason. We are here because our outposts, which border the Neutral Zone, were also attacked."
[Fed] [Rom]
Span 2
The destroyed outpost from TNG's "The Neutral Zone", where the Romulans and Feds are drawn into conflict by the Borg incursions and prepare themselves for war.
[P]Outpost Delta Five, Penetrate Alpha Quadrant
[AQ] 50
Anthropology, 2 Astrometrics, Geology, 3 Security, and Strength>42
Region: Neutral Zone. Each other non-headquarters Region: Neutral Zone mission you command is a [Bor] mission. While you command a completed Region: Neutral Zone mission, each ship you command at an opponent's mission is Weapons +2.
"The outpost was not just destroyed, it is as though some great force just scooped it off the face of the planet."
[Bor]
Span 2
The Borg version is the final mission needed to activate both Annexation Drone and Locutus, Implacable Scourge, as well as their various cards dependent on 50-point missions.
[Bor] 7 •System J-25 Cube, First Encounter
[Stf] [Stf] [Stf] [Stf] [Stf]
Cube
When you play this ship you may download up to two cards. Those cards must be Manoeuvre cards, Pursuit cards, or non-unique Drones.
"You judge yourselves against the pitiful adversaries you've encountered so far: the Romulans, the Klingons. They're nothing compared to what's waiting."
Range 10 Weapons 12 Shields 11
The first cube the Enterprise-D encounters, thanks to Q.

Bonus:
[Evt] 1 Biological Warfare
Plays on an opponent's mission requiring Biology, Exobiology, or Medicine (limit one per mission). When a dilemma requiring Medicine is revealed at this mission, add one level of each skill that is in that dilemma's requirements to those requirements until the end of that dilemma.

Nice.

I got one:

[S] Sector 30, Engage Hostile Alien
[AQ] 35
Exobiology, Navigation, Physics, Transporters, and Cunning>36
Region: Neutral Zone. When your personnel begin a mission attempt here aboard a ship with Weapons>11, name a card for each dilemma beneath this mission. When your personnel are about to face a dilemma with that title this attempt, it is overcome instead.
[Bor] [Fed] [NA] [Rom]
<3>

Easier for Borg, Adapt-ish gametext
Works with OG Tomalak, Beguiling Adversary and Deranas
Works with Worf, Security Detail Leader if you can find the stats, perhaps with U.S.S. Defiant, Enduring Defender

Very clever... and flavourful in that the Feds/Romulans can use creative tricks to match the Borg's brute strength!
