FFG Please give us some news about Armada's health

By Goknights12, in Star Wars: Armada

Not to mention in some jurisdictions, a mis-or-false quotation that invokes anger could be construed as Slander against the person Quoted...

** (Also, to get in first... I am well aware that my Face and/or Butt and/or Mother could also be construed as slander...)

I emailed FFG about this topic. It is official as of 04/01/2016.....

..... As of the beginning of the year Fantasy Flight Games will no longer be supporting or producing any content for Star War Armada. While Store Championship and Regional kits were produced before that date, they will be the final events officially supported as well. The reason is so that Fantasy Flight Games can focus on its more popular games such as X-Wing Minatures and Imperial Assault.

Fixed the date for ya.

At least someone got the troll. I hope other threw out their Armada in disgust.

Slander you say... Maybe we should report emmjay? Or was that his plan all along?

Finally, someone gets it! Get enough reports, FFG will read it! Maybe, just maybe, they will respond and say SOMETHING! Assuming the OP is correct and they will only go on the forums if enough complaints are heard, or something like that.

I too, emailed FFG about this topic. It is super ultra official as of 03/04/2016.....

...Armada is taking a different path. Rather than spoil users with aricles, Armada's 3rd and 4th waves will be hitting store shelves without any spoilers. Wave 3 should be on shelves next week, while wave 4 is set to debut in July. The Executor mega-expansion, while not officially a part of any wave, is also going without any spoilers, and is arriving at stores on March 14th. You are going to love the Thrawn card!

So many bridges are needed for this thread, it's startling to see what we've devolved to in the absence of news.

FFG themselves do not visit the forums unless they have been directed here due to multiple report functions.

That's not true. They can't/won't post but they do visit the forms. Alex and Frank have both said as much and they have nothing to do with moderating the boards.

I've also seen Alex's name listed as someone reading a thread in the past. I assume that some random person can't get "Alex Davis" as a screen name on this site.

Now that doesn't mean posts like this actually accomplish anything. It's not like they're sitting there and saying 'only one more post about wave 3 and we finally pass 500 and can release the article'

Yes, I should Clarify.

I used "Visit" in-so much as "Visiting in an Official Capacity and Commenting and/or Moderating as an Employee of Note for Fantasy Flight Games..."

in all realsies though. FFG is attending AdeptiCon later this month (I think). I would expect some big announcements at AdeptiCon with potential release dates around the time of GenCon.....

Well done, you forced them to announce the Armada Summer Kit

Honestly, I think you've called it.

That fake letter was an outstanding opportunity to rickroll people that was shockingly wasted. Shame on you.

In other news, Imperial Assault wave 6 was just announced:

So perhaps look for Armada wave 3 next week.

god i wanted that link to be a rickroll so bad

I am the meta anti-rickroll.

I have to admit, it could be a good marketing ploy. If I was told today that they wouldn't be making anymore Armada materials it would make buying the things I want a big priority. The rush to buy before it goes out of stock. Even if they were to quit making Armada wouldn't mean we had to stop playing it. Last I looked at the products section they're still getting restocking when they're out anything so I think we're o.k.

One thing is certain: If Armada doesn't get regular exercise and keeps eating fast food every day, it is going to get the 'betes.

type 2*

diabetes mellitus type 1 is an auto immune disease and that can happen to it despite cutting down on carbs and sugars..

I had an online game I liked be cancelled this month.

*glooooom

I've heard that if you show up anywhere for Regionals, FFG goons are waiting to take your ships, smash them with a hammer, and then punch you in the face.

Armada is dead. Abandon all hope, all ye who enter here.

I laughed way too hard at this.

Seems to me that ffg could do more player outreach. Once a week address rules and how they work. Come on here and say yes qe have plans for wave 3 but can say more.

Its like they have the game on life support and that it.

They don't specifically do that for any of their games, this isn't just an Armada issue...

This thread is akin to Anikin walking into the council chamber, and murdering all the younglings.....

Hehehehe....

Seems to me that player bases in X-Wing and Armada have become WAAAAY too obnoxious at how often and deep they expect the company to stop what their doing and stroke their ego. It's a common trait, sadly, in the internet age. Patience is so 1980's..."GIMME AN UPDATE EVERY WEEK OR I WILL ***** AND MOAN ONLINE IN FORUMS AND ON FACEBOOK GROUPS!!!! AAAAAAAARRRRGH!!!"

To be fair, for Armada players it's been more than a couple of weeks...

Well it is healthy enough that Armada is a finalist for 'Best Miniatures Game 2015' at Beasts of War. The awards will be announced Sunday night 3/6/16
