In Response To: Re: The Pfhor are the Borg (Ori)

: Just to be anally technical, the Borg actually have a Queen(shown in Star
: Trek Nemisis/End of Voyager series). Also, the pfhor would have to make us
: pfhor or at least integrate the slaves into their system and make them
: equals.

True, the Borg assimilate rather than enslave, but the Pfhor do make use of cybernetics to control their slaves, effectively making them into a collective. It's interesting that the Pfhor do not make use of cybernetic implants for themselves, in spite of the obvious advantages. Certainly a highly ordered species like the Pfhor would recognize the advantage of coordinating the actions of thousands of fighters etc without having to resort to slower methods of communication. Of course it's possible that the Pfhor are telepathic, but the evidence to the contrary in Marathon is significant. I guess some questions will always remain a mystery.

: Why have my last two been been about Star Trek, a show I haven't even watched
: for over three years? I don't know.

Perhaps because Star Trek is the standard by which all other sci fi is judged?
