Attack of the zombies

There is unrest in the Star Wars: Armada Forum. Several thousand threads have declared that Armada is dead… again!

This rage movement, under the leadership of the mysterious Ben, has made it difficult for the limited numbers of FFG White Knights to maintain peace and order in the Forum.

Senator Michaela Gernes, the former guy who, eventually, answers our stupid rules questions, is returning to the FFG HQ to vote on the critical issue of nerfing flotillas to assist the overwhelmed non-creative players…

Hi MG! You look hottest than I imagined!!

Cough! We are here to protect you. Not everybody is happy about the last FAQ.

What is wrong with you? You are a ******* jedi! Keep your saber into your pants!

Yes, master.

Treason! Someone tried to kill Gernes!

I will follow him!

Page 52 checked, page 53 checked, page 54… oh ****! The forum's search engine is bantha poodoo.

Did you found him?

No, but he is #TeamOrange for sure.

I got you!

Something killed her…

Relay!!!

The Worlds are closer and I need some intel about the meta.

I heard something is wrecking the table in some local and regional tournaments.

I am here to play in your Regional.

As you can see, we love squadrons and we play tons of them.

They use lifeboats too Come back here, little coward!

Calm down, friends. If they didn’t nerf anything yet they will do when they saw what we are bringing to the Worlds.

IN THE MEANTIME…in the German National Championship.

He brought 8 gozantis and 134 points on squadrons.

YOU KILLED ARMADA, AAAAAARRGH!!

What are you doing here?

If you had not been engaged in thread necromancy all the time I wouldn't be here so shut your mouth and stop looking my ***.

Let the Worlds begin!

Flotillas!

Squadrons!!

RIEKAN!!!

Well, guys, I quit! Good luck!

Why are we trying to kill Miechaela Gernes exactly?

She screw up it with her snipe ruling answer.

No until the end of the status phase. However you will go out, NOW!

Taste my light squadron build!

Taste you that!!

JJ is out! What we can do? Nothing works against those zombies aces!

This lack of creativity makes me sick.

Flechette Torpedoes!

Snipe!

We drop her! We must activate her!

How I have to tell you? IT...IS...#TEAMORANPLE!!!!

And that is how I win a World Championship. I bit disappointing .

Yes but the Store Tournament Season just getting started.

Hopefully Riekan let me hyperspace retreat, hehehe.

Job done, master.

Great, great! And they don’t have any idea about what we really prepared for wave 6…Armada is going to burn, bwahahahaha!

THE END

If you missed the first episode you will find it here:

10/10 better than Attack of the Clones... please contact Disney for Prequel rewrite.

Man, this kind of stuff does so much more harm than good.

REALITY: Lots of concerned folks expressing their concerns mostly very calmly.

PERCEPTION: "ARMADA IS DEAD LOLZ"

Then people complain about all the vitriol of the forum. Y'all gon' make me lose my mind. (up in here... up in here)

I don't think so. Steping back and laught about ourselves cannot harm anybody.

Carry on, then

Feels like I just watched a full movie of the forum the last week or so. Well done.

I can't wait for Star Wars Armada Episode III.

AMAZING

I demand the "Tragedy of Darth Palgueis the Wise" scene to be renamed "Darth Rieekan the Undying" if you make another.

"He could save others from death... but not himself"

I dunno. This is still really funny.

(insert more squadron rage. I am the undying squadron rager)

You remember how episode III starts right? And we will have Sloane eventually...

Can I be Darth Plageuis? I'm already dark side.

"He could warn others about squads... but do nothing to stop them"

This is amazing. And in all honesty, if we can't sit back and chuckle at all this once in a while, what's the point?

AHHHHHHHHHH

Well RIP my mobile data.

Funny ****. Funny ****. I love armada. Is it perfect... No. But FFG will do there best to fix op and "broken" aspects with FAQ and New expansions, thus balancing this that ended up unbalanced. It's still a great game.

Don't worry. Riekan will keep Armada alive until the end of the next FAQ writing.

I see what you did there. Haha. So another 4 months after wave 6 comes out, you mean.

So I guess I missed the picking of teams. I guess I'm the fool that gets picked last for Dodge ball... What is team orange and orple? And any other teams I may have not been picked for?

Long story short:

There was some spirited debate on whether Rapid Launch Bays was supposed to be interpreted one way ("team orange") or another ("team purple"). Several months later, FFG issued a FAQ with a clarification* that the correct interpretation was... neither of those, but instead some weird hybrid of both ("team orple").

*: well, what actually happened is that the FAQ entry was still unclear and the formerly binary debate turned into a three-way between the original teams and the hybrid interpretation, which was only settled via an e-mail ruling by Michael Gernes. Which may or may not be contradicted by the next FAQ, when/if that ever happens.

Ok. Now I know even more about something with out actually knowing what the sides are. Where can I read about what the sides were actually if it's long winded.

I think this is the original thread. 29 pages and 701 posts. If it's as bad as I hear, good luck!
