The medichlorians would be an unknown factor, as the Borg do assimilate and utilize DNA, so could there be force-using Drones? Possible, but pure speculation.

The Borg win by taking over their tech and assimilating the crews.

What is it with you people thinking that the borg can automatically assimilate anything?

Does being able to assimilate 15 billion gigawatt power tech equate to being able to assimilate 200 trillion gigawatt power tech?

The Borg now have their own 200 trillion gigawatt power tech. Heh.

Borg don't assimilate everything into the collective, so there are some things they wouldn't assimilate from Star Wars, like those cannons that require a gunner to aim and fire.

Though I do understand why Lucas took this look, he likes mixing hi-tech with old themes.

all they have to do is assimilate one engineer who understand said tech.

i can't believe you're still trying to portray those numbers as canon.

How are they not canon?

One was from a canon reference guide from Star Wars.
Another was stated on screen.

Human targeting would considering low-tech, compared to computer targeting. But the mental picture of a Borg in said cannon looks awesome.

If they Borg assess the tech and finds out its worth adding to their own, why not go for it?

Well yes, anything deemed of technological or biological value would.

I was just saying in the broader term, that not everything would be.
