Yea, but it's not like the enemy can get away during the following turn, they are trapped by engagment! It's not like anyone uses Intel squadrons.. right...?


Still, even that is useful, because you can force the enemy squadrons to vacate an area they may have preferred to stay in and contest.

And then he's REALLY going to have Words with said Intel Squadon, assuming they moved up specifically to get everyone else away

So no wave 8? I hate to be a Debbi Downer, but a box like this that is easy to print feels like we didn't get much in the way of an expansion.

I wonder if Mel's makes a Gunstar in armada scale that I can use for Iggy B...

No new ships for another year

Yup, excluding the SSD, it's possible Armada players will end up going two years without new ships.

My reaction to the announcement is basically: "Cool, wake me up in 9 Months"

I'm glad someone got my Reference.

I had a feeling he did at one stage... As part of his Grab-Pack that had the Planet Express and the Tardis?

EDIT: No, double Checked. No Gunstar. i was dreaming

If you're good about it, goading them close, you can even soften them up with Impetuous first.

Hmm I might have to try an instigator variant of that....

I mostly play imperials, but no wave 8 has to be a kick in the head for rebel players.

Thr Imperials get an awesome new model...maybe sometime on the future.

Rebels get no new models.

Well, assuming first player or lack of squadron support on the opponents side too, Then 1st turn activate him, then take a ton of glorious flack shots at them, then fly off.

Rebels were always a Model ahead anyway... So this is Evening the Score, somewhat.

I'm in the "New Models aren't everything" department... CC Changed a *lot* of sthings with Standard games, and this Campaign seems Primed to do the same thing.

As a Primarily Rebel player, too.

When did wave 7 drop?

And now all we get is a campagn expansion?

Another tease followed by a rather mediocre announcement.

You'd prefer Silence?

I think this all but confirms the SSD will be the last model and the end if Armada.

Why is nobody talking about the fact that this expansion introduces mines into the game:

mines were limited to minefield objective, now it's more general, very good

Well, they said otherwise on the Panel AND on Twitter, so we'll get more info in time

No reason.

lol I suppose it was underwhelming for me because I've already played the mine thrower game using that combo. It's janky and fun, but takes a bit of planning.

All this time between waves and a vague promise that more ships are coming, but they cant say when or where, or how many are coming? How many times have we heard that?

Runewars also had studf 'coming' and was killed as soon as the final officially announced models were released.

I wouldn't be surprised if this is the end of Armada by the end of 2019.

As dras said, this is incorrect, infact they have confirmed that the SSD will Not be the last model

My runewars collection says "omething something chickens something counting something hatched"

little underwhelming. That "we are still developing ships" pretty much confirmed clone wars for me but, like all things armada, the development time is SLOW. Glad to see the new campaign, I'd bet no one plays the old campaign once it comes out.

Playing it now as a group of 10. Haha

It should say that. Doesn't mean it applies to Oranges as equally as Apples.
