You all have really allowed me to rekindle my enjoyment of this game.....even thought I have literally played ONE game in 8 months... ONE.

Hugs!

Play a 400 point game against yourself! It is not weird. I promise!

I sincerely suck at tournament play. Just FYI. It'd be like clubbing a baby seal.

If anything I have learned in the last 48 hours is that that is so incredibly, almost laughably true.

Everyone Tarts somewhere. In Armada it is most casual than anything else

I do most of my tarting on 7th avenue.

Yeah, I've gone from barely playing any armada to loving it thanks to these guys on vassal. Just try it, don't be scared, it's probably the most accepting community I've seen for any miniature game!

So true, I too was surprised at first to find such a nice community. Poor Onca had to introduce me to the basics of vassal in a 4 hours game and he never even had a moment of impatience. Thanks again for that, Onca!

Between non stop work, half assed prep for a half marathon, and the lure of X Wing, I don't think I've touched Armada in 3 or 4 weeks. And I'm set to do a store championship this weekend.

Crap.

I better spend a night or two in the basement playing against myself this week. I'm not fond of being the cannon fodder in general.

I thought you were going to say Acacia Avenue, and I was going to start calling you Charlotte....

Sooo someone want to explain Vassal to me?

It's probably easier to show you, but the long and short of it is: Right click everything.

Vassal is a free program used to simulate board games

1) have you downloaded it?

If not go here:http://www.vassalengine.org

2) find someone to play with! Most of us Vassalers are more then happy to show new players the rope

Some people you could contact:

Myself

Cool. Let me get home from work, and I will take a look at setting this up.

Don't be intimidated by it either. At first it can be a bit of a trick to get your head around, but once you have it its awesomesauce

What he means is that he has a new seal club he wants to try out.

Can't get it to work. Java fails on download every time. I even installed the latest software. Still no dice. Fails every time.

I don't think seals are not the club scene. I have tried feed mine alcohol for months unsuccessfully, but maybe they just go for the dancing.

Bring it on! I don't play Armada since November or so, and it was still Wave 1 stuff... and you know, I run an Armada Fleet Builder...
