Seems like Wave II street date is 11/20/2015

By JediJF, in Star Wars: Armada

Went to my local LGS today in Montreal and when I asked about wave II, the owner told me he just received news from his supplier that the street date is 11/20/2015. Meaning he will probably have it sometime during that week.

I believe his date because so far his been spot on regarding release dates for X-Wing, IA and other games in general.

Aww, still almost a month away :(

Is the Canadian street date usually the same time as the US street date?

yes, it's the same week so in the US, you may get it earlier that week

By then Battlefront 3 will be out so interest in Armada will go down.

Extra purchasing power. Been saving up for this.

C'MON black friday sales!!! (Yeah right)

Was hoping for sooner, but I guess you can't rush firepower of that magnitude!

Just glad we have a date before Christmas! Hopefully the same for the UK...

Looks like that date is listed on Amazon as well!

Makes sense. I would guess they would try to have some available for purchase at worlds, with the larger release within the next couple of weeks after that.

My cat "Batman" says it will be out Dec 18th...

Just got all of my Core and Wave 1... like today, so I can wait until next month to get Wave 2.

General reminder: there is no "release date" for FFG products. Once shipped to retailers they are available for sale immediately. Unless there is an outside contact to be followed such as the Force Friday X-Wing set.

I'd beg to differ on a technicality. There is a release date upon which they are legal for tournament use. However, that release date is set when FFG sees that the products are in stores, even if some stores will put them out sooner than others because of logistics. I'll agree that there's no pre-determined release date.

11/20? That would be very bogus.

That means those of us who don't have to worry about Canadian customs will probably see it earlier in the week of the 16th. 3 weeks to go!

Whats with that Garm bel Iblis figure under force unleash... oh. unleashed, not awakens. blerg.

btw joe you didnt get armada til nowwwwww??????

I was waiting to get all good with my X-Wing, and now that we have a few weeks before anything new is coming out, and also since the ISD's and other cool Wave II goodies are coming, I jumped in finally.

... and what great timing too.

:lol:

I saved enough this month to pay for my pair of ISD's next month. I got two core sets.One last week from Mini Mart during their daily sale, and this one from Cool Stuff yesterday.

I love the dam Rebel-killer-space-whales...

:wub:

Strange my local store was told with in two weeks on Tuesday. I really hope it's not the 20th as I wanted to run a tournament on the 21st and was hopping for at least a week with the wave two ships before the event. :( but I guess nothing I can do but wait and see.

11/20/2015

I always assumed Canadians wrote the date the sensible way we do in Britain. I'm disappointed :(

By then Battlefront 3 will be out so interest in Armada will go down.

That's a hell of a stretch.

I play video games when I can't play X-Wing or Armada, not the other way round.

Yeah. I hope he's wrong too because I can't wait but the reason I trust that date he gave is because for the last 2 waves of X-Wing and IA, the date he provided was the actual release date,

Sorry to disappoint you mate...

We'll get it in time for X-Mas... good nuff.

It's very disapointing the gap between those special events where they further waves (wave 2) and que street date.

I wouldn't mind a couple of weeks, but almost two months is very anoying.

You keep reading people building lists, making analysis and playing and can't follow.

I completely agree. It's super frustrating. While I still like that FFG got some product in early and Massing of Sullust was a ton of fun, this wait has gotten impossibly tedious. And at this juncture in the games life span, I think its bad for the game. Not crippling or anything, because its a fine game that will stand on its merits, but wave two looks to really flesh the game out to a more completed form and I would like to play that game already.
