besides, I learned to not really bother anymore with articles. Judging from the fact that wave 7 was still "in development" when it was announced, I wasn't expecting anything until early november.

And replying with just gifs is rude!

Almost as rude as posting absolutes without even cursory nods to either the truth OR previous discussion.

But not quite as rude as that.

What exactly did you think this was announcing?

Usually it is the photos that catch me. Last weeks slick Boba pic. This week the pic of Rex.

That's how they usually hit me on the chin. Then I quickly realize it is for another game.

It takes 0.03 seconds, but still hurts.

But now they're throwing in "Imperial" with another game. Stings in the eyes.

hey I wasn't about to read 206 pages of article reports. And I still think there's no reason to complain about articles unless it's on a friday. I don't remember the last time we had an article on a day that wasn't a friday, but feel free to correct me on that point.

And I was generous and ignored the Thursday release articles :D

I'm so glad I bought in hard on L5R. Imagine if Armada got an announcement that we were getting 6 new ships within 2 months of the release?

Now imagine people ******* about the releases coming too fast.

I actually feel this way about X-wing. it was driving me crazy they were doing the releases SO quick, they ran out of ships in next to no time and the game developed an insane power creep(I'm looking at you jump master).

I would start one Armada is Dead thread except I literally had 3 guys ask me to show them how to play it plus one of them went $200 deep on product.

I practically fainted when they asked me. :lol:

That is awesome. I know you have had a shrinking/small community up your way. Enjoy the new opponents!

Judging by the fact that Wave 7 is still listed as "in development", are we likely to miss the holiday release?

It still has to go through shipping (2 weeks minimum)

Cross an ocean (8ish weeks)

And it hasn't even been sent to the printer yet.

They could be lying and it could already be at the printer I suppose..

I've seen products skip entire phases on that list. So if anything, it's a rough guide, but don't take it as gospel.

How I feel every time FFG releases an article about Imperial Assault, X-wing, or destiny....

It was last updated September 21st, so 3 weeks ago. It may very well have left that phase, but the Upcoming page not updated.

I'm so stealing this one.

It's only appropriate as a filthy Armada peasant.

Friday leads to hope.

Hope leads to disappointment.

Disappointment leads to suffering.

Suffering leads to beer.

I sense a disturbance in the Force...as if all of the Armada players cried out for an Article...and were suddenly silenced - by @Drasnighta

Release it Dras! We implore you!

We need a scapegoat so I'm pretty sure Dras is the witch. :)

Back when they decriminalised Witchcraft in Victoria back in '2000, I held a religious exemption for that very thing.

So its not like I can deny it.
