Once Found, the Federation forces have orders to launch the first ever offensive into the Delta Quadrant in their war with the Borg -a strategic operation to eliminate the Borg threat once and for all.

Such an operation carries risks- only some of which can be anticipated.

While the forces of the Klingon Empire are be grudgingly left to play the role of Alpha Quadrant peacekeepers, they learn  that it will take all of their strength- and their forces- to preserve the Quadrant.

In the Delta Quadrant, the Borg find themselves set upon by not just the intruders from the Alpha Quadrant, but by a merciless assault from the fluidic space dwellers, Species 8472"
