Totally not saying I am late to the party because of something stupid,

speaking of stupid....

If FFG brought out Armada as a PC game what type would you want? (Turn based/RTS/ Etc....)

I would prefer turn based. Keep the game as it is but just make it look pretty.

I would love to have an armada computer game like Artemis, a game in which each person is a difference officer on a big ship. It feels a little more Star Trek like, but it would be awesome to be the bridge team on a star destroyer!

Definitely turn based. I would play the **** out of it.

Btw, battlestar galactica: deadlock is an existing video game that plays more or less like 3D Armada. I'd like a mod to turn everything triangle shaped though.

Id love to see a Rebellion 2.

Turn based where you can have the option of logging in and making your 1 turn per day when your opponent doesn't have to be online at the same time as you, sort of like the idea of chess played via email as im finding im lacking the time for full games these days.

I think they have already produced the perfect Star Wars Armada computer game....

Is this a real thing? If so, where is this thing and why didn't I know about it??

Regarding the Friday question: Turn-based please... With pretty fire cinematics during the "idle" periods between turns...

Most definitely would want turn based

Not quite on topic but a reboot of the original xwing and tiefighter games would be great.

With better computers nowadays they could even scale it up so you could command the star destroyers etc in such a game...

Makes me want to finish the Tabletop Simulator mod I started...

I've spent a lot of time thinking about and hoping for exactly this:

• Keep the same rules/structure as the game (basically streamlining and beautifying Vassal)
  • Games would go much faster with being able to visualize movement ranges and not having to worry about all the minute adjustments
  • Support for larger fleet battles
• AI Opponent for single player campaigns
• Multiplayer support
• Grand Campaign on either a Sector or Galactic Scale
• Two branching story campaigns - one each for the Rebs & Imperials
  • Each campaign would have multiple branches/paths leading to different outcomes (think Imperial Assault and the old Wing Commander video game series)
  • Mission victories would earn you upgrade points to refit/expand your fleet
  • Victory in different missions would also unlock different upgrades/ships

OK I'm stumped. What's the 1427 reference please?

If like a simultaneous turn based if that Makes sense. You and your opponent both key in moves and orders and they then happen simultaneously. Just so things are a bit different from the meat space version.

I could be wrong but if I remember correctly it's from an early 80s port of the Star Wars arcade game for the Atari.

I'd like a top down bullet-**** style game with attacks based on Armada firing arcs.

New real time game. Way more advanced than Empire at War with all the abilities and features Armada has. Boarding troopers which could work like battlefleet Gothic armada 2's new system

Collaboration with Wargamming. I know adding a third dimension to it would be challenging, but World of Warships with Star Destroyer would be amazing.

Until they start adding Russian starships

Empire at War 2 please....

This, so much this. ****, I'd be good if they teamed with Creative Assembly and made "Star Wars: Total War". It could be their first 3-d based game.

Yeah, I was thinking about a total war l: star wars game too, galaxy as map, you fight space battles and ground as well. Would be epic.

Also, a star was moba... with the endless ammount of characters from star wars, hots game style, id give it a go.

The problem is balancing starwars characters in a moba enviroment.

Luke would be a old man, and die after casting a illusion spell according to Disney, Han would let the enemy kill them and feed constantly. Wedge wouldnt have a voice actor, Chewie would be a beserk auto attacker, and storm troopers wouldnt hit what they are shooting.

Happy Friday!

This, but add in the ability to watch the battle as a cinematic after all turns are done!

Look at heroes of the storm. Characters have themed kits, and the power levels are sort of balanced, ignoring how powerfull they are according to the lore. Some would cry about this in a sw game, id be playing happily with it.
