As someone that has yet to actually really play a game but has bought the core along with some expansions, your videos are very enlightening. The rules in the base game are kind of all over the place and it was a struggle comprehending it. Thanks for all the work you put into making this game more accessible for new players like myself.

Thank you for you advice. I just played my first game last Saturday. I had 2 MC80s, 1 winged MC80, 1 MC30, 1 Nebulon B, 1 Corillian Corvette, 3 xwings (1 Hammerhead Corvette came in just before the fighter phase of round 3 because it's package arrived) with General Madine commanding). Against 1 Imperial Star Destroyer, 1 Interdictor, 1 Victory, 6 tie fighters and the entirety of the Imperial II Squadron pack (plus 1 Quasar at the mid point of round 2). The Imperial squadrons were very effective, especially the VT-49s. Very fun. Thank you again for your videos.

Alex Rex I tried getting into Armada but I underestimated just how much space you actually need for it. That's the main thing I wish people would add in these videos, that it's not a good game if you have very limited space.
@Alexrex77
7 жыл бұрын
It depends on how you approach it mate. For example, a limited space can be an issue if you want to display your fleet. However, you, just as I did, can keep all your models in a toolbox and store it on top of your wardrobe, or anywhere else you have some space. This is a really fun game, plus running an ISD hype for an SW fan like me is an opportunity no to be missed :) Hope that helps.

hey guys I need help understanding squadrons. when you come to using a squadron you 'activate' them. the tutorial does not mention how many can be activated in a turn. from other comments I noticed it is the squadron number on the ship cards but in the tutorial imperials have 6 squadrons and the squadron value of the VSD is 4. that would mean 2 squadrons would be left behind doing nothing. so how can that be right?
@CynTheGM
7 жыл бұрын
I'm pretty new to the game as well. But from what I understand, if you activate them using a command dial, you activate as many squadrons as your ship's squadron's value. But if you do not activate them using a command, you wait until the squadron phase where you and your opponent take turns activating two squadrons at a time to either move or attack until you are both out of squadrons. For this example, let's say we have four squadrons each. Neither of us activated squadrons during the ship phase, so the squadron phase begins once all the ships have moved. You can move two of your squadrons. Once that's done, I will move two of mine. When I am finished, you move your last two, and I do the same when you're done. The only time the alternating pattern will change is if one of us has more squadrons than the other, in which case you continue to move two at a time until you are out of squadrons. I hope this helped!
@Crabbok

+Aurora07 doing a squadron command with a command dial, allows you to activate squadrons up to your squadron value. If you have a squadron token, you can activate ONE squadron. If you have a dial plus a token you can combine them and do your squadron value +1. After all ships have activated you enter the squadron phase, where all remaining squadrons will activate, but here they can only shoot or move, but not both. This is done 2 at a time, starting with the first player.
@Aurora07

thanks guys that helps a lot. so if I move a squadron within attack range of another squadron they are locked in combat. if I moved during squadron phase can I not attack the squadron in range? but they can attack me if they hadn't moved that phase?

I think they should have kept Squadron limit at 100p even when moving to 400p games. The only thing I dont like about this otherwise amazing game is the fiddly squadron gameplay. I wish they were just tokens without the need for activation sliders or damage dials, and flat so not to interfere with measuring, which they ALWAYS do D: Oh well, I felt this way even when Armada was released and it aint about to change so this is just me venting my grandpa side!
