Wow an entire year will go by and this is all we get. what a turd, a lump of coal. After all that wave II delay we get screwed with this. Wow. This is the worst game news I have ever come across in my entire adult life. I mean this is terrible. Luckily, it is just a game, but FF has lost me as a customer. You can take your future product and....
OGM and they way they sell e turn with all the fluffy writing. Just reading it made my stomach turn. They basically didn't devote any resources toward Armada. Without momentum this fledging game opabout epic fleets game is heading straight toward the toilet. I love how the fluff keep talk about how this meager offering was making the game more epic. What a joke. How did the person even stomach writing that junk. I would pn't even recommend new players getting in now. I was planning on running three demo tables for up to 12 players at a convention in April in Huntsville...forgetaboutit. Wow what a deuce.
I was on the wrong side of the sales argument. To all those who said FF was dropping Armada. You were right by default. Lake of "real" support for a game about being epic means the same thing as no support. Just a ruse to sell existing molds and current inventory. Wve VI Forgetaboutit it. There won't be enough interest and this game will collect dust like my others.
Me buying Rebellion, not now. Wouldn't even play it. I'll cut off my nose to spite my face from this point on. You could be the producers of bloody rage and I would still boycott your betrayal.
And because this is a rant and I am pulling all support from FF let me TLDR this one more time:
They dug the ditch for this game and threw out this small token to help sell off their last remaining product of neb bs ISD, MC80s, VSDs etc. They clearly have no serious intention of growing this game now at this critical juncture and this token move was just to help move existing inventory. Completely betrayed. I will never buy another FF product again. After getting my wave VIIi stuff next for X-wing I am out. It is preordered and too late to fix. This game needed at least 3-4 more good capital ships in the short term to gather the momentum it needed to inspire the people who haven't made the lead and to shore up some of the glare holes on both sides.
The the meta will be 6 quarter at the minimum even if in the off chance I am wrong and they decide to get their stuff together and not screw the people would poured so much emergy, hope, and money into this game. Going to Shapeways isn't the answer because the plastic mold are junk.
The only lemon to sweetie is that I can save time by rarely checking my FF account and moving on to the many other games in my collection.
Basically called it a wrap And complete threw us under the bus. The game needed 4 more good ships per side to help this game flourish. Wow, I can't believe I just got suckered so bad and now feel so ripped off after spending all the money I did. 12 dice packs, 12 distance rulers, three 3x6' tables, laser, 45 ships, 14 squadron packs, hours painting, etc to get basically completely screwed because this was a clear message that this game is finished. They didn't build on the momentum of wave two.
Freaking flotillas. You seriously gotta be kidding me. They don't even look good. Could even staggered the height and maybe even used four at different levels. Junk
Ok maybe as part of a release with at least 2-3 capital ships and a new fighter pack with some new admirals, objectives, etc. added in some of the packs. Two packs of junk for an entire year. At least this will be on time because there is basically nothing to produce. One guy working on this junk eating hot pockets in his mom's basement.
Worse bone thrown ever. They can forget people getting excited about this game. You can feel the loss of sales now this crapper is swirling around the toilet. No excitement among the serious casual player will home of this. Oh the small tournament scene will play on, but without the causual gamers wanting variety and ships to fill somewhere in the 82-104 gap for the rebels and the 90-108 gap for the imperials. Many of who just got enough money saved for wave II won't be pulling the trigger now they have shown that they now longer take this game seriously and put even a few team member on this.
Oh and let make the Rhymer ball even better with pout giving the Rebels some love on that front. When playing more than 400 points the Rebels are at a severe disadvantage.
So a floatilla of upgrades for existing ship...ok nice start, but No Where Is the Beef. There is none because you just saw the death of the game.
It's a small wave, but it should prove to be fun and different all the same.
