2x expert shield techs

2x auxiliary shield team

2x weapon battery techs

3x reserve hangar deck

3x proximity mines

2x advanced transponder net

2x linked turbolaser towers

There are also 2 take evasive action, but it a unique card.

I honestly think these counts are very fair, outside of some corner cases I don't see needing more of any of these right off the bat. Sure someone will want to run 4 Neb B's all with Expert Shield Techs but I don't see a problem with the numbers provided. I was worried I would be tempted to get a second box. Hopefully these will find there way into other expansions as well and/or prize support as well.

Same - for me, it was the reserve hangar deck. I can see situations I might want 4 of them...but honestly 3 is probably more reasonable and a better list.

The counts seem fair.

Of the upgrades I would want more of, its Reserve Hanger Deck and Proximity Mines, so I am glad those are the two that are getting 1 extra of each. I could see a case of buying a second campaign in the future, but not really more than a second.

Prox mines seems to be a soft buff to the ord victory and the pelta

What does this have again?

New pilots?

New upgrades, esp titles for old ships?

new non-unique upgrades?

And new objectives! The biggest game changers imo, and also what I'm most excited about.

Also campaign rules 😄 , new obstacles, the proximity mine tokens, and new unique upgrades too.

Asmodee Germany put an announcement at Facebook (called "Lila Laster" ) that RitR will be available next week.

Don't mind me I just get excited for any new Armada products.

It's ok. Everyone gets exited, when the purple truck aka "Lila Laster" hits the road :) Hopefully it's got some sort of icecream truck melody going.

Where are you?

AsmodeeUK didn't include RitR on their "stuff coming out this week" document, so we're probably looking at 3-4 October at the earliest for the UK and Ireland.

PACNORWEST USA (FFG Preorder).

I’m in uk and no sign of it either

Nothing in Germany either... ☹️

My order with Miniature Market has changed from Pre Order to Virtual Order Queue, so I expect it to ship out today!

As he said, to Laminate one, at least :D


I'm so glad I bought 2 Copies of CC back in the day... And then Framed them... Saved me from having to buy 5-6 copies, for sure... I'm sure RitR will be the same.

Laminate, fix to a metallic surface, stickers on magnets. Plus extra cards.

My mind remains boggled.

You mean you don't just put them in a poster frame with a rolled-steal backing?

Costs like $20, anything magnetic sticks to it, and you can take the whole thing out and put it away when switching campaigns. It is, in the end, just a poster frame with...I dunno, plexiglass or plastic or something - utterly trivial to swap out anything you want in it. ****, wargamers have been doing that with paper maps for decades - plus side, especially for wargames, is that you can easily "mark up" the map with dry-erase markers...
