A way to keep this game around forever

By Bloodstripe Baron, in Star Wars: Armada

Love the game and everything about it.

Eventually, and no time soon, there will be an end to releasable ships. (Long after the new movies)

But to keep organized play around, how would you feel about tournaments where ffg releases new objectives played for the first time at the tournament they're released.

Instead of picking objective cards, your participation prize would be a sealed pack of 3 new objectives that everyone has to use for the tournament.

It seems like it could be an interesting idea to keep the game fresh once the lists stabilize. It could even be used to play into the strengths of the stronger builds that develop over time.

And it would really show the good players who could strategize on the fly.

I think this is a very imaginative idea. I would love to see FFG do something like this. I would like new objectives generally released as well.

I think eventually they will split into the scum faction (after playing empire at war again those Keldabe's are HUGE!)

RPG

Well, I think FFG will figure out how to milk this game. I think with Episode 7 on the horizon, it is possible that we will go from the Galactic War to whatever Disney has in store for us.

Yes I know many people are mad at Disney but they have yet to do any major damage. Star Wars Rebels is a great example here.

The game will eventually stop reprinting ships unfortunately. :(

Hmmm a scum faction for Armada, that would be awesome and at the same time kinda anoy me because I love bounty hunters and scum and would rather play that faction if given a choice....but since that's not an option for this game I'll just stick to the faction I'm playing now

I guess if it does happen I'll spend crazy amounts of money on that faction.

If they do bring that ship in this game I hope they can bring about how devastating the weapons system is on that ship

I would just as rather they put them into a ship or two, one Rebel and one Imperial, within each wave.

More missions, and even more categories of missions would go a long way to keep the game interesting.

The Keldabe-class battleship is also, I cannot stress this enough, GORGEOUS. I wonder how they'd represent Mass Drivers in Armada...

A lot of its staying power would be in the quality of their minis. If they can address a lot their quality issues, I' be happy to play it occasionally and have them on display long after they stop making expansions.

taking a stab in the dark here but I'm guessing FFG has a long term plan. They have to have one to launch a whole game else they wouldn't go for it to begin with. I hate to say it (que flame wars) but they might release clone wars stuff. I'm not a big fan of the movies (though the cartoon series was good), the clone wars has a huge number of ships and to be honest it's really only 20 some odd years later that the galactic civil war kicks off. how many of us are still driving 20 year old cars? they are definitely around so it's not out of the realm of possibility that you'd still see some here and there in the galaxy..

Some factions I would like to see added are:

  • Scum and villainy (mercenary fleet)
  • Grand Republic Navy
  • Separatists Alliance (they actually have some great ships.

Mass Drivers would be awesome. Keldabe would be a very formidable ship against alot of Imperial ship types
