Still don't see why. I mean unless you want me to burn your threads and spout DtO propaganda everywhere ? oh and have wildly inflammatory opinions...

I did miss you all though. Interesting people one and all. Even the AiD trolls.

Hey those two are my jobs. But I guess I can't do it alone. Welcome back.

We laugh, but there are some out there who are honking to the fact that this is a one-off expensive appeasement item while FFG's real love and attention is being heaped on X-Wing and Legion.

I mean, that's not an entirely incorrect view. $200 for one model is a bit expensive for those on a budget. And given the announcements, they're clearly focusing on those two games more than they are Armada (from a business standpoint, probably the best option).

Me.

I blame myself for @Lyraeus ....lol, I posted the SSD on my FB, and he saw it. ?

I agree. I think Armada has, honestly, run its course. There's a ton of cool options and stuff to play with that if FFG did say the game was complete, I wouldn't be thinking, "What about ______?" I think a lot of game companies should be doing that more often.

I think Legion and X-Wing have a lot more to mine from and easier to buy into. Armada already had a reputation for being expensive. The SSD reinforces it.

If your fleet is the one wrecked then it will never happen

I totally agree. I think a lot of people balk at the idea of dropping $50 on an ISD, but you need only 1. When people are buying 3+ TIE Fighters for X-Wing, the price difference is a wash.

People aren't very good with money and price points. I remember in a marketing class so many moons ago that they said $20 is that sweet price spot. More and people start to reconsider buying. I think that's why X-Wing excels so well. The iconic, cool ships people want are $15-20.

What was that? I couldn't hear you over the screams of dying Rebels.

Hahahaha got that before. Most opponents have been dusted. You will have to test your luck one of these days.

Even @MattShadowlord is back in the game - the age of Titans hath come again...

I just had a very busy few months, and had to put Armada and most other hobbies on the backburner to give 'Real Life' precedence.

However, I recently realised while RL has its charms, I like Armada better

Nothing happened when I pressed submit, so I pressed again.

And still nothing happened, so I pressed again, harder.

Basically why I am back. I want to play table top again.

I answered some questions for you
