However, with the expansions to Wave 1 now out and a more healthy 300 point size the new norm, the game has really come into its own and and is showing real depth. I think Armada isn’t as instantly, obviously great as X-Wing or have the models that pull people across the room for a closer look like 40K. By the time midnight had struck, I had bought another 4 capital ships and 14 fighter squadrons.īut at least they are easy to store.
However, the whole of Wave 1 is now out and the game has improved, so I finally made the plunge and bought my very first Armada ship last night. The truth is though that when I first tried a demo game I was skeptical, it seemed a bit too simple (and properly-engineered star destroyers just too durable) which is why I didn’t get any models until now. Star Wars Armada – it should have been an easy sale to a strategy gaming fanatic like me, who’s already done two 40K armies in Star Wars themes (not to mention a third at epic scale!).
