To our friend Forensics:

By Eagle128, in Star Wars: Armada

I think I speak for everyone when I say thank you sir for entertaining us and keeping this community occupied with carefully timed teasers and demos. You have helped alleviate the pain of waiting while keeping the anticipation for this game alive. Not everyone would have been so generous with the info and videos had they been in your shoes. We have enjoyed seeing the sneak peaks of the models and appreciate you taking time out of your day to answer our questions both on video chat and this forum.

Sincerly,

Just another player waiting for his pre-order

I wholeheartedly second that!!!! Its been a pleasure to watch all your videos and demos. Thank you!!!

For a split second I read this title as an incredibly passive aggressive message to Forensicus from FFG, admonishing him for releasing information before the game was released and delivered in the same tone that Vader "accepted" Admiral Needa's apology in tESB.

Anyway, I concur with the thanks!

I still jealously hate him. :(

Thx you guys. It actually means a lot to read that. It has been my absolute delight and pleasure to have had the good fortune/opportunity bestowed upon me and what else to do than share it (while trying not to be too flashy).

It's been fun and good to witness your interest and, as best as possible, to answer your questions, big and small.

Basically I feel "blessed" (big word from an atheist) overall with all the good times and nice acquaintances and experiences I've had since I dove head first into FFG's Star Wars X-Wing which lead me to start the Copenhagen X-Wings (now counting 200+ FB members), which lead to a lot of tournaments (including a Regional win), then the LCG followed by Imperial Assault and now the big pleasure to have tried Armada IRL and share/demo it with you. The last is also very much thanks to the cooperation and help from BlasterBo (the guy who did the actual review): we are the "evil masterminds" behind the big Star Wars demo day this upcoming Saturday where we are demo'ing the four Star Wars games mentioned above at the local board game cafe in collaboration from 2 FLGS combined. And it was this that led the Nordic distributor to fly in the copies we have played with and also the unopened core set that will be put up for random (VERY) lucky draw during the demo day. They are actually also putting up core sets for the other 3 games, so we know that 4 people will be getting an extra enjoyable Saturday, one maybe just a little bit more than the others.

So once again thx for the words and the time. And thx for making my tread the most replied and viewed Armada tread, at least for a while.

May the Force be with you

Hear, hear!

Agreed! Thank you Forensicus!

I seventh those sentiments.

Does one have to be in Attendance to win these draws you talk about? :)

I would have to say....yes :unsure:

However if you set up a really fancy Skype conference we might be able to make an exception :P
