Over the last couple of months, there have been a few new announcements with Wave III and Wave IV for Star Wars Armada. Wave 3 adds a new ship class called flotilla – which showcases the Rebel Transport, and the Imperial Assault Carrier While Wave 4 adds in the new Interdictor, and Liberty class cruisers.…
Hey everyone! It’s been a while since I have been around to post here due to me being a flaky fella (Matt’s words). I have been busy with work and life in general, and my gaming has definitely taken a back seat (with the exception of EvE Online… but we don’t speak of those things…
One of the unique things about Star Wars: Armada is the use of Objectives. Objectives add a very welcome strategic layer to the game as opposed to X-Wing.

Anyone that follows accessories for tabletop games most likely saw the ModCube Kickstarter awhile back.

With the release of Wave 2, we see our standard fleet size increased to 400 points, along with the…
Welcome to the first installment of The Bridge! This will be a new article series here on Flaming Dice Reviews that covers everything Star Wars Armada has to offer. If you have anything in particular you want to know about this game, or want to read about, let me know! With the release of…
With my review of Star Wars: Armada (finally) being posted yesterday, I got on with my next project. I wanted to make a no-frills stats template that would allow me to plug in all of the ships from Wave 1 easily. That way, I could save the images to my phone and have the ships’…
