Borg Attack Cube

This is a little-used concept as far as I know. Usually we all make large cubes with
lots of weapons and heavy shields and huge crews. OK, so I got to thinking of
a smaller cube with HEAVY cannon armament, no torpedoes and no special weapons along with
a normal crew size would be a blast, literally.

It is pretty much to be used as a simple, expendable ship. Don't think of having
one around for the whole game. The idea is to penetrate and destroy as much
as possible before the enemy gets you. Used in groups the Attack Cubes cause
nasty damage.

The 512x512 texture has never been seen before. It looks better than the JPG. Included is
a new Borg transport effect also.

The Attack Cube uses the standard Borg Cube wireframe but there is an new build button
included. There is a BMP for the Admiral's Log debrief too.

The files go here:

ODF/SHIPS
bbatatk.odf

ODF/WEAPONS/PHASERS
bcstar.odf
bcstaro.odf

SOD
bbatatk.sod

TEXTURES/RGB
bbattld.tga
bbattld_1.tga
bbattld_2.tga
btransport.tga
gbbbatatk.tga

BITMAPS/ADMIRALSLOG/SHIPIMAGES
bbatatk.bmp

Add to the byard2.odf in the build list:
buildItemx = "bbatatk" -x is the next # on your build list

Add this in gui_global.spr file for the build button to work:
b_bbatatk gbbbatatk 0 0 64 64

To use the standard cube wireframe drop this in:
