An Apology from a Naysayer

By Crabbok, in Star Wars: Armada

Armada is Not Dead! - I feel like that kid in that movie with Kevin Sorbo!

Honestly I couldn't be more thrilled right now! Seems Armada is still not going to see the production levels of X-Wing, but taking 4 expansions and splitting them up over 2 waves helps relieve the feelings of anxiety that me and other friends of mine were having. Now we can have more than 1 wave a year, and still see stuff on the horizon! And what GOOD stuff it is!

Is anyone else thinking "Hmmm, the Empire now only has 1 Large ship to the rebels' 2!" Granted you can simply field 3 ISDs and the rebels' MC80s are really just 2 different configurations of the same GENERAL type of ship.... but it makes me wonder if the Finalizer isn't coming a bit sooner?!?!

And finally another MEDIUM ship! And we are close to having some REAL variety in the game! (I mean variety in terms of ship models, the way it "looks"). Really looking forward to when we have at least 8 different ship models per factions!

I am officially Hyped now! I formally apologize for being a "sky is falling" naysayer. I feared we would end up having to wait another year or two for news of this quality! Well done FFG!

Hey, takes big ones to apologise. Good on you man. :)

I accept your apology. You are a great poster on here so keep the chin up and let's have some fun!

Command Casual!

Welcome back to the land of the excited.

Nothing to apologize for.

Naysaying is pretty tame compared to what some said.

We were all a little disappointed with the wave 3 announcement, but oh happy days.

The FFG provideth...

Its ok, I got your back.

Nothing to apologize for man. FFG left us hanging for a while this year. Clearly they've re-focused a bit. Gotta love it when they give you exactly what you want.

My wallet hath rejoiced in the staggered waves.

I'm out of likes for the day...but I agree. With pretty much everything here. Staggered releases are better than the single dump we had with wave 2. I was hard on them for the wimpy flotilla wave, but they seem better the more they talk about them.

So good times ahead. This definitely should keep the game in flux over the next 9-12 months. Hopefully they announce 5 before that timeframe expires.

This makes me incredibly happy. I've been waiting for an Interdictor since the early days. It will do a nice job at rounding out the Imperial fleet and opening up scores of new possible strategies. The nerd joy is strong in this one.

Apology accepted captain crabbok.

So, what with the 'Janitorial Crew' support team do?

And will it be OP?

So yeah, that would be the biggest step in the right direction for Armada going forward IMO - to not let us have a huge lapse with no news again. Wave 3 is on the boat, and by the time we have it, I expect Wave 4 will either be at the printer or on the boat. I'd expect something like a 2 or 3 month gap between them both showing up. (2 months between their announcements might not mean a firm 2 months between their delivery).

What I would be disappointed in, is if Wave 4 comes out and then we go several months without anything else on the horizon. I'm ok with a smaller waves if it keeps me eager with anticip......

ation.

Is it just me or did they go to the nines with the design on those models?

They look A-MAY-ZinG

No, that honor belongs forever and always to Haxxbar.

Unless you deliberately tried to make the death of Armada and self fulfilling prophecy, then there really is nothing to apologize for.

We're all fine here. How are you?

Can I shoot someone for a Boring Conversation already?
