Transwarp procedures completed. Vessels 1-10 have reached spatial grid 444723. System designator "Lylat" of species 13017-33 has been located in octant 52-alpha. Initializing flank vectors. Vessels 1-4 shall approach from below orbital plane. Vessels 5-8 shall approach from above orbital plane. Vessels 9 and 10 shall approach from opposite ends of orbital plane.
Estimated time of arrival: two weeks at quarter impulse.
Estimated time of fleet arrival: one month.
Vessels 2 of 10 and 6 of 10 shall begin construction of transwarp conduit to facilitate reinforcements.
No Federation, Dominion, species 8472 activity has been detected in this spatial grid, the immediate eight surrounding grids, and the secondary sixty-four grids. Closest Federation vessel has been detected fifteen spatial grids from "Lylat". Classification, Odyssey-class. Threat level, one-point-zero-zero.
Transwarp conduit completed.
Species 13000-16, collective designation Cornerian Federation, has given sporadic resistance. Two probes orbiting system Kuiper belt have been assimilated. Four lone ships of negligible technological distinctiveness have been added to the Collective. Socio-political information collated from these drones indicates system is defenseless and unprotected.
Vessel 9 of 10 is approaching planet 4 of 12. Transmission active: We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. Existence, as you know it, is over. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile.
Species 13000-16 defense ships engaging. Fifteen ships classed as fightercraft identified. Two ships identified as battlestar hybrids identified. Offensive capabilities negligible.

Fightercraft 14 of 15 destroyed.
Fightercraft 15 of 15 destroyed.
Battlestar 1 of 2 destroyed
Battlestar 2 of 2 damaged. Armor and hull damage at 75%, atmosphere venting. Threat designation: zero-point-zero-zero-zero-zero-one.
Vessel 9 of 10 in orbit. Planet 4 of 12's defensive installations firing. Weaponsfire determined to be electromagnetic directed-energy weaponry. Adapting.
Dispensing photon charges. Defensive installations neutralized.
Beaming down drones. Planetary pacification procedures initiated.
Assimilation fleet has arrived.
Vessels 1-185 have reached spatial grid 444723. System designator "Lylat" of species 13017-33 is located in octant 52-alpha. Initializing flank vectors. System defenses neutralized, planets 4 through 8 have been pacified. Planet 9, system designator Sauria, has no identified defensive installations or ships. Caution recommended
Estimated time of arrival: two days at maximum impulse.
No Federation, Dominion, species 8472 activity has been detected in this spatial grid, the immediate eight surrounding grids, and the secondary sixty-four grids. Closest Federation vessel has been detected five spatial grids from "Lylat". Classification, Odyssey-class. Threat level, three-point-nine-nine.
Transwarp conduit has been activated. Reinforcement fleet, vessels 1-500, shall arrive in one week's time.
Priority: construct stable Borg base of operations in the Alpha/Gamma Quadrant without arousing Federation, Dominion, species 8472 interest.
Species 23, identified as rogue collective trimatrix thirty-seven, has detected activity five spatial grids from Lylat system. Projected models indicate they have launched a return assault.
Separating assimilation fleet into twin groups. Vessels 1-100 shall continue with main assault while vessels 101-185 (40 cubes, 40 tactical cubes, 4 harmonic defenders) angle for intercept. Tactical fusion cubes arrival estimated to be one month.
Species 23 battlefleet has been met in spatial grid 444739. Species 23 weaponry is determined to be of inferior quality and technological makeup. Numerous small species 23 vessels flying in organized formation to engage Borg vessels, forward vessels firing hybrid plasmic/laser weapons.
Primary targets acquired. 40 vessels directed to intercept alien fleet. Approaching weapons range. Activate.
Transmission active: We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. Existence, as you know it, is over. We will reacquire your biological and technological distinctiveness to add to our own. Your culture shall readapt to service us. Resistance is futile.
Damage sustained to vessels one, two, seven, nine, and seventy four. Superstructure integrity loss estimated to be 23% for vessel thirty. Auto-repair systems engaged. Adaption sequence initializing.
Aligning beam arrays. Fire.
Four hundred alien vessels destroyed. One thousand, two hundred and ninety two damaged. Primary lead ship superstructure damaged to 100%. Alien fleet disengaging. Hypothesis: primary lead ship was central control organism, designator "queen".
Separating vessels into squadrons to intercept. Preparing tractor beams. Aligning beam arrays. Dispersing gravimetric torpedoes.
Twenty-three species 23 vessels recovered. Analyzing.
Rogue collective trimatrix 23 has been corrupted irredeemably. Deviancy is estimated to be 82%. Recommended course of action: immediate dismantling. Disabled and damaged vessels set for immediate termination. Recommended course of action: tow species 23 vessels toward nearest neutron body for expediency.
Reassimilation battlefleet is to set course for species 23 homeworld. Tactical fusion cubes redirect to Lylat system.
Alert! Alert!
Federation presence detected in spatial grid 444655. Threat level raised to one-zero-point-zero-zero.
Tactical fusion cubes have arrived. Planet 9 pacification and assimilation successful. Planets 1-11 have been pacified. Population undergoing processing. Borg installations have been constructed.
Organizing battlefleet. Vessels 1-687 shall intercept. Vessels 1-200 shall guard system. Activate system defenses: sector alpha, sector beta, sector gamma, sector x, sector y, sector z, in an area of thirty one-point-five astronomical units surrounding system; extreme gamma radiation from 14 nearby star clusters, in an area of sixty two-point-nineteen lightyears surrounding system. All defense networks are online and true.
No Dominion, species 8472 activity has been detected.
Transmission active: We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. Existence, as you know it, is over. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile.
Species 13017-33 technologies have been adapted for Borg use. Multiple tests have concluded successfully on species 8472 vessels and organic combat units. Borg combat efficiency increased by 70%. Borg perfection has become certain.
The Borg shall fight and hold this spatial grid.
Resistance is futile.
