스타트렉 어드벤처 미니어처: TNG 보그 vs TOS 클링온 비교

빠른 답변

대부분의 Star Trek Adventures 테이블에서 TNG 보그 옵션이 첫 번째로 집에서 출력하기에 더 강력한 선택입니다. 보그는 반복적으로 등장하는 세력 전체의 위협이며, 테이블 위에 여러 개의 동일한 드론이 있으면 유리하기 때문입니다. TOS 클링온 옵션은 시대 특유의 오리지널 시리즈 스토리를 운영하거나, 클링온 조우를 이끌 단일한 개성 있는 지휘관 미니어처를 원한다면 더 좋습니다. 둘 다 32mm 스케일이므로, 실제 결정은 여러분의 승무원이 가장 마주칠 가능성이 높은 적이 무엇인지입니다.

Print-at-home miniatures solve a specific problem for Star Trek Adventures groups: you want the right enemy on the table without waiting on a restock or paying for a full box. The catch is that not every print-at-home release does the same job. Some are designed to be printed in multiples as rank-and-file forces, while others are one-off character pieces that reward careful printing and painting.

This comparison looks at two very different print-at-home options: a TNG-era Borg drone and a TOS Klingon warrior. I'll cover what each is actually for, how the print-and-prep process differs, and which one earns a spot in your first order. If you are building a Star Trek Adventures collection from scratch, this is the decision that saves you the most wasted resin and painting time.

What each miniature is actually for

The Borg drone is a TNG-era enemy piece designed for the Star Trek Adventures tabletop roleplaying game. Borg encounters in STA tend to be about pressure and numbers: a single drone is a puzzle, but three or four drones on the table change how your players move, spend Momentum, and decide when to retreat. That makes a print-at-home Borg a strong candidate for printing multiple copies.

The TOS Klingon warrior is an Original Series-era piece. Klingon encounters in that era are usually more personal: a boarding party, a duplicitous commander, a diplomatic meeting that goes sideways. You rarely need six of them, but you often want one that reads clearly on the table as an individual with a name and a motive. The two miniatures are solving different problems, which is why the comparison is not really about quality.

• Count how many identical enemies your last three sessions actually used before deciding which to print first.

Scale, material, and print prep

Both miniatures are 32mm scale, so they sit in the same size class as the rest of your Star Trek Adventures collection. That matters more than it sounds: mixing scales is the fastest way to make a well-painted table look wrong. If your existing crew and away team miniatures are 32mm, both of these will line up without adjustment.

The print files are pre-hollowed where possible, and supported versions are included for easier printing. Pre-hollowing reduces resin use on larger or bulkier shapes, which is most noticeable when you are printing several copies of the same drone. Supported versions save you the time of building supports yourself, which is the step most likely to cause a failed print if you are new to resin. The trade-off is that pre-supported files give you less control over orientation and support placement than a file you support manually.

• Print one test copy before committing to a batch, especially if you plan to print multiple Borg drones.
• If you already have a support workflow you trust, the unsupported files may still be the better choice for you.

Painting and table presence

Borg drones are forgiving to paint. The palette is narrow, the surfaces are largely mechanical, and uniformity is the point. If you are painting four or five of them, a simple basecoat, wash, and a few metallic accents will get them table-ready quickly. That repeatability is a real advantage when you need a squad rather than a single hero.

Klingon warriors reward more deliberate painting. Armor panels, sash, and skin tones give you places to add contrast, and a single well-painted Klingon commander can carry a scene in a way a drone cannot. The trade-off is time: if you paint one Klingon to a high standard, you will not want to rush the next four. That naturally pushes Klingon purchases toward one or two miniatures rather than a full squad.

• Batch-paint Borg drones in groups of three or four to keep the color mix consistent.
• Paint the Klingon's face and sash last, when the rest of the model is already sealed and you can focus on the focal points.

How they fit into a campaign

If your campaign is a TNG-era game, Borg are one of the few enemies that justify a recurring, escalating presence. Printing several drones lets you scale an encounter from a single scout to a full boarding action without buying a new box each time. That flexibility is the main reason the Borg option is the safer first purchase for most groups.

If your campaign is set in the Original Series era, or you run one-shots and convention games, the Klingon warrior is the more efficient pick. You get a recognizable, era-appropriate antagonist that works in social scenes as well as combat, and you are not paying to print miniatures you will only use once. Neither choice is wrong, but they point in different directions.

• Match the miniature to the era your group actually plays, not the era you like best.

Trade-offs at a glance

• Borg drone: quantity over character: The Borg option is built for repetition. Printing several identical drones is cheap in resin and fast to paint, but each individual drone has less personality than a named character. Choose this if your campaign uses Borg as a recurring, scaling threat.
• TOS Klingon: character over quantity: The Klingon warrior rewards careful painting and works well as a single named antagonist, but you are unlikely to need more than one or two, so the value per print is lower. Choose this if you run era-specific Original Series stories or convention one-shots.
• Print prep: supported files save time, cost control: Both options include supported versions and are pre-hollowed where possible. That lowers the barrier for new resin printers, but experienced printers may prefer to support their own files for better orientation control. Print one test copy before batching either option.
• Scale: both are 32mm: Because both miniatures are 32mm scale, they will sit consistently with the rest of your Star Trek Adventures collection. Scale is not the deciding factor here. Base your choice on era and encounter type, not size.

Product facts that affect your choice

• Star Trek Adventures - Print At Home - Iconic Villains General Chang: This 3D print product lets you print 1 highly detailed, 32mm scale multipart miniature of General Chang for use with the Star Trek Adventures tabletop roleplaying game. Files have been pre-hollowed where possible, and all files include supported versions for easier printing. General Chang is a named TOS-era film villain rather than a rank-and-file trooper, so he works as a single centerpiece antagonist. The pre-hollowed and supported files reduce prep time if you only plan to print one copy.
• Star Trek Adventures - Second Edition - Game Token Set: This official set of 30mm etched acrylic tokens contains 6 blue Momentum tokens, 24 red Threat tokens, and 12 additional tokens, and is a pre-order with shipping expected to start September 2026. If you are adding physical miniatures to your table, matching tokens keep Momentum and Threat tracking readable and consistent. The pre-order timing means it will not arrive for an immediate session, so plan around that if you need tokens now.
• Fallout: Miniatures - Cryptids - Grafton Monster: This miniatures set is part of THE WILDS OF APPALACHIA wave for Fallout: Miniatures, and the Grafton Monster is described as a legend of local folklore made flesh by West Tek through FEV experiments. Included here as a comparison point: it shows how a single monster miniature can anchor an entire encounter. That is the same role a named Klingon or a Borg drone plays in Star Trek Adventures, which is useful when deciding whether you need one miniature or several.
• The Elder Scrolls: Call to Arms - Dwemer Walls and Pillars: This set provides Dwemer architectural terrain, with defined angular forms and decorative shapes carved into stone walls. It is included here as a comparison point for terrain: if you are building a table for Star Trek Adventures, terrain pieces like these can help define a scene, but they are not required for the Borg or Klingon encounters discussed in this article.

Which should you print first?

Best for

• TNG-era campaigns where Borg appear as a recurring, escalating threat
• Groups that want multiple identical enemies on the table without buying a full box
• Players new to resin printing who want supported, pre-hollowed files

Not for

• Original Series-era campaigns that need era-accurate Klingon antagonists
• Tables that only ever need one named villain miniature
• Groups that prefer to support and orient their own print files manually

If you are unsure, start with the Borg print-at-home miniature: it is the more flexible purchase for most Star Trek Adventures campaigns, and printing extra drones later is easy. Add the TOS Klingon warrior when your story actually calls for an Original Series antagonist, not before. Both are 32mm, both include supported files, so the only real question is which enemy your crew will face next.
