Hey Armada community, i don't want my first post to start with a question so here is a picture of the only thing I have painted so far. Turns out Imperials are pretty straightforward and basic to paint, having only one color with variations in shade. Just some TIE fighters in standard ANH white. Need to get cracking on some stations/roids/wrecks and get some rebels.

I really enjoy the game, spaceships are a bit of an obsession and aside from Infinity spaceship games are the only tabletop games i actually like playing. This game has great and simple mechanics and I like the custom kit that is available for it. Some people on shapeways have amazing custom ships and in fact I think some other settings such as homeworld would work great with these mechanics. Thus, my question is if anyone knows if extra stands are available anywhere from FFG? And since I doubt my google-fu failed me that badly and they currently are not available, if they will be at any point in the near-ish future?

No, they aren't available. If you've broken one, FFG customer service has rightly gotten a reputation for very quick turn-around times for replacements, but the only way to get new ones is to buy ships.

Yeah FFG is IMO missing out by not offering at least on a web store the ability to buy some of the components. I know in X-Wing I'd love to be able to buy more bases and pegs. In Armada I imagine that there would be at least a small market for things like fighter stands and the like.

I don't know...they seem to have issues keeping card sleeves in stock, so I could imagine them having parts available at their web store, but never being available

I recalled seeing the ship stands on shapeways but you have to buy them independent of the ships themselves

Yeah I figured they weren't independently available. I did see Mel's stands on Shapeways, and while I love his other stuff (and intend to get some) the stands are more expensive than ships, which is a bit self-defeating. Perhaps the keyhole pegs so I can at least interchange some extra ships, but still... Guess I will have to wait till Litko jump on that. Oh, and how do you think a Neb would look in green?

A GREEN Nebulon?!

Globulon G

How green, lol
