Description (Initial Observations): This 3 meter diameter sphere has a 1 meter turret on top and two 6 meter long tentacles. It also has a 100 Hit Point Energy Screen and twin tractor/pressor beams that can move 500 kilograms at a 60-meter range. Its main weapons are 3 batteries of 5 Lasers each. All 3 batteries can be fired at once and they have a 900 meter range and do 20d6 damage per battery. Other weapons include 3 Grenade Launchers with 4d10 Grenades each of mixed types (all launchers can be fired simultaneously) and 2 Micro-missile Launchers with 2d20 missiles apiece (which must be fired separately). Grenade Launchers have a 300 meter range and Micro-missiles have a 3000 meter range. A Defense Borg may make additional attacks by dividing his attack rank between various attacks, However, his Rank decrease as his Endurance decreases from damage (loss of 1 per 4 hit points of damage).A Rarity has been found of a Defense Borg whose brain has mutated and possess one mental mutation.
