Republic, Separatist, Rebel and Imperial fleets fight for the fate of the galaxy in Star Wars™: Armada, the two-player miniatures game of epic Star Wars space battles!

Massive Star Destroyers fly to battle against corvettes and frigates. Banks of turbolasers unleash torrential volleys of fire against squadrons of starfighters. Engineering teams race to route additional power to failing shields. Laser blasts and explosions flare across the battlefield. Even a single ship can change the tide of battle.

In Star Wars: Armada, you assume the role of fleet admiral, serving with either the Republic Navy, Separatist Navy, Imperial Navy, or Rebel Alliance. It’s your job to issue the tactical commands that will decide the course of battle and, perhaps, the fate of the galaxy.

Are Raiders any good now?

I know there was a super 5 Raider Gozanti spam list a long long time ago, and that its decent... however, I don't have 5. I have 3.

How good are these now? I have heard that squadrons and evade rules have changed, however, the Raider except when used expertly in MSU seemed to be just really not worth it.

Lists for 4 MC-30s?

Hi, I picked up two more Mc-30s for a total of 4 as I thought these were rather decent in the past, and I assume the small-bases evade change makes them better.
However, is there any lists that actually can make use of 4 of them?

Please if you can share, share the your most competitive choices with these? I am worried about heavy-squad lists as well.

Also, how are these in the Legacy variant, any changes?

What's funnier / most entertaining to play, dual MC-80 Liberty or dual MC-80 Home One?

And most importantly, why you'd choose either?

Icon digital assets?

I’d like to put some dividers / tabs into my card binder.

Ideally I could have the icons for the various upgrade card types as well as the factions so that I could combine them to print off tabs for my sections like Imperial titles or Rebel commanders.

Does anyone know of any digital assets packs that I could use to design and print my dividers?

Also does anyone have any suggest for iconography to use for the squadrons and ship sections of my card binder? And going even further any way to differentiate unique squads from standard.

Thanks

2v2 list building advice?

Hey everyone! I have my first 2v2 game ever on Monday. Does anyone have any tips for building a list for that? I'm an Empire player, and I'm thinking about doing an Onager list and hoping my teammate protects me.

(Homebrew) Rules for more than two fleets

Recently I am getting a few of my friends into the game and one of them expressd interest in having a game with more than two players who would each have their own fleet fighting against everyone elses. Main problems i've thought about would be the shape of the game board and the Player areas, preventing (accidental) teaming or kill stealing and balancing objectives/Player order. Has anyone experimented with something like that or even created their own homebrew ruleset for such battles?

How many Star Wars Armada Upgrade Card Collections needed for two players?

Hello there,

I'm new to the game and I wonder how many upgrade packs I should buy, when buying all stuff for me and for my opponent by myself. So should I buy one or two upgrade packs?

Are there upgrades contained that can used by rebel _and_ imperial ships?

Any help is highly appreciated. :)

Cheers.

Best faction for a squadron-centric fleet

Like the name suggests, what faction is best at the whole squadron/carrier dynamic?

Returning to Armada after a few years

Dang after doing some amazon and eBay searches and looking across forums and whatnot, Armada products seem to drying up. Support to the game seems to a bit a worse then it was already lol.

Shame, Armada was the first wargame I ever got into and still one of the best. My last purchase was the SSD when it first came out, but never got to fly it after moving to a new duty station where nobody else played SW minis games.

Well time to try and get some reasonably priced Republic ships...

New to the game.

Hi everybody, I want to get in to separatists and clones, but it looks like the venetor is no longer in production. Is the game being left behind by AMG? And how should I start both factions?

Consolidated points/rules changes?

Is there someplace with consolidated points/rules changes for Armada? Me and my friend are just getting into armada with the clone wars starter sets and expanding from there, and I’m curious if there is anywhere we could make up to date lists?

Which should would have came with this stand?

I didn’t notice when unboxing all my ships but it seems one of them came with a stand with an ‘S’ curve in it. Which ship would this belong to? Is there any reason for it or just to mix things up a little?

Understanding squadrons

So I've have a game or two now, but I don't get why squadrons can only move OR shoot, like how can I move in to attack a ship if it simply runs away or shoots me down before I get the chance, is there a strategy involved?

Good time to get into the game?

I just got me and a friend into this game and legion, playing a clone wars campaign. We each got the respective starter sets for armada but a lot of the other ships and add ons are kinda hard to find. Especially venators. Are things just out of stock or is the game kinda fading away.

Well balanced homebrew for Imperials and Rebels?

Recently got into Armada and I'm starting to familiarize myself more with everything the community has been up to over the years.

On one of the sites I saw tons of hombrew ships and I was curious if there's a collection of well thought out and well balanced homebrew stuff to consider adding into the mix?

Also, is there a specific base/support STL file that is the fan favorite or most popular?

Also curious if anyone's attempted to make the base cards into STL for 3d printing?

Working on a 2 v 1 Death match List where I am the big one (600 points). I'm going for a massive squadron presence. How does this look?
