Hey guys!
So I build a lot of Armada fleets... while pooping.... while my wife is talking to me about our upcoming schedule.... while I am on the phone with my Grandma.... I build fleets all the time. I love the meta-game puzzle of building fun and interesting fleets.
The result is that my Armada Warlords fleet list is pretty long, even though I do have a really bad habit of forgetting to log in until I go to save the fleet, so it ends up getting lost to the main page forever. Still, just for the fun of it I decided to comb through my profile and see what crazy contraptions I came up with a long time ago, and see how they work in the current state of the game. This is the first one I wanted to look at.

This fleet was a prototype that never made it into full scale production. Half TRC90 swarm, Half Rambo, half Rieekan Aces, it combined a lot of crazy thoughts together. It has a suspiciously Toryn-shaped bid that is no accident, as I went back and forth with her on this one (and probably would end up taking her, but I didn't want to edit it).
So here is my current "up ticked" version of the fleet for how I would run it today, and I still think it would be a fun list to give a shot at! This version fixes some of the obvious "rough draft" errors with the previous fleet like coms net on the Adar flotilla (Adar wants to USE his squad command, not token it somewhere else! Duh), as well as alter the overall squad strategy to be more effective. Adding Hera, plus Adar, plus Yavaris means the squads are going to be deceptively hard to avoid. They can hang waaay back and wait for ships to finish, then position to fork 2 targets and bomb with rogue in the squad phase and make the next turn Yavaris all the more deadly. Subbing out GH for 2 trc90's is subjective, but makes most wanted a much harder choice against the list cause they can capitalize on it much better than GH can.

Anyway, just a fun way for me to pass some time this morning, taking a stroll down memory lane and throwing out a variation on a popular fleet that incorporates some less common elements to create something that is fun, but also *probably* deadly. If anyone wants to test it for me, feel free as I probably won't get the chance!
