Rebel and Imperial fleets fight for the fate of the galaxy in Star Wars™: Armada, the two-player miniatures game of epic Star Warsspace battles!
In Star Wars: Armada, you command the unmatched power of the Imperial fleet, or gain the opportunity to prove your tactical acumen as an admiral in the Rebel Alliance. Massive Star Destroyers fly to battle against Rebel corvettes and frigates. Banks of turbolasers unleash torrential volleys of fire against squadrons of X-wings and TIEs.
Assemble your fleet, survey your objectives, form your battle plan, plot your course, call your shots, and destroy the enemy.Armada balances the awesome scale of the Star Wars galaxy’s ships and space warfare with ship designs and rules that make for accessible, intuitive play experiences. It’s your job to issue the tactical commands that will decide the course of battle and, perhaps, the fate of the galaxy.
The Star Wars: Armada Core Set contains everything you need to get started, including the rules, an articulated maneuver tool, a range ruler, six command dials, nine attack dice, ten unpainted squadrons, and three pre-painted ship miniatures (Victory-class Star Destroyer, Nebulon-B frigate, CR90 Corellian corvette), plus more than 130 cards and tokens.
Having Star Destroyers batteling Nebulon B-frigates and maybe even Mon Calamari Cruisers. Armada is a new game and has to be seen as a seperate entity from X-wing. At this point, we don’t know if xwingminiaturesgame.com will support Armada with articles; more on this later. But for now, here’s a peak on what things are coming:
The set contains all you need to have One ISD fight off a Nebulon-B and a CR-90 Corvette, along with smaller swarms of X-wings and TIE-Fighters. The swarms come unpainted, the ships are pre-painted. However, the swarms are fairly small and will be cast in a specific color, coming close to the color your used to: whit-ish for the X-wings, Grey for the TIE-Fighters.
The box looks great. Ships will glide through space using Inertia instead of the tight turns used in X-wing. You have to divide power to the different quadrants of your ship and be tactical on what different options your ship is going to go for and what commands your ship is going to call. Bring in different mission objectives and the game seems complete! This is a set you just don’t want to miss out on.
