John's Catch-All Post

Armada was dead, to begin with. There is no doubt whatever, about that. The register of his burial was signed by the clergyman, the clerk, the undertaker, and the chief mourner. The Wills signed it; and the Wills' name was good upon shit for 'change, for anything they chose to put their hand to. Armada was as dead as a door-nail.

Like I was going out any different from any way you've ever known me, Now to shoehorn in a Hamilton reference!

Armada's End: a Retrospective

As I'm sure most readers of this blog are aware, AMG officially pulled the plug on both Armada and X-Wing. No more development, no more inventory produced, Worlds 2025 will be the last hurrah.

Many Armada players on 6/13/24

Ani Updated!

New Ani is the RIGHT Ani. All cards SHOULD be updated and right, let me know if you have any issues or see something that needs fixing, thanks

Draven Updated!

 His article is fixed. He sure is a commander you can take, though I'd say "probably don't?" Anyways, just Ani left to fix at the moment.

Xantos Worlds 2024 Write-Up

Thanks to Damon AKA Xantos for both writing this and never actually bugging me about publishing this over the last 3 months. My bad, bro-dawg.

What up y'all, I’m back!

Triumphant return, with a reference to last year’s dusty ol article!

John Got Off His Butt!

Every RR2.5 change (commanders excepted, they're in progress) has been incorporated, and all the correct looking cards are on the articles where they're supposed to be. I HAD updated the articles on many of the points change bits and squads, but I had trouble (re: I got busy and lazy) getting the right pictures updated as MY computer (and not my wife's laptop for easy text edits) is upstairs near the baby's room.

Anyways, yes, things are being updated. All I SHOULD have left is Draven and Ani, but lemme know if you find anything else bad elsewhere/in need of fixes. I did a real quick points change search so let me know if anything relevant needs fixing.

Up next, Damon's long ago written article of his time at Worlds, that I did promise him I would publish (no one else asked or reached out, but hey, if you wanna talk, I got a platform, late though it may be!).  And Eric and I at least are working on thoughts on the AMG announcement. Biggs and Truth may publish as well, though Biggs's response was along the lines of "how many four letter words do you think I can print?" Can't say I disagree. I'm gonna guess shmitty being on his Epic American Road Trip may be impeding any Armada thoughts on his end, haha. We got a few articles left in this old girl, that's for sure. Stay tuned as always.

Raddus Rite-Up from Stewbucket! AKA Fleet Building 313A: A Blue Fish Case Study

More free content from the blog mines! Stewbucket (previous Worlds judge!) wanted to write this and it seemed pretty interesting (and i will freely take most content thrown my way, blog for the blog gods). Take a look about fleetbuilding and his insights, below!

LSO 2023 After Action Report - Kelorn

Hey guys, Kelorn asked if he could write an AAR for the Lone Star Open, and I will take any free article that gives me those sweet, sweet pageclicks. You know you want to read what he wrote, so hit the jump!

The key is to make the joke and then never explain it

Know Your Enemy/Commander's Corner: Davits Draven

Hey, a new Rebel commander! That guy from that thing and some comic books, let's learn about Davits Draven!

He's definitely gonna appear in some other properties, right, and not die in a comic offscreen?

Two RR Officers!

Before I dive into Draven, I figured I'd punch out Pryce and attack Assaj: hit the jump, kids!

Four RR2 Squadrons!

Hooray, we got 4 new squadrons! Let me dump them all HERE before inserting them into their own posts. Hit the jump for some cool new stuff!

You Underestimate My Power!

Well, someone has to do it, and since Truth didn't want to, it falls to geek. Hooray! The final card to update and fix and then I'm... done. Wait. That's not happy. And speaking of not happy, how about those old Anakin Skywalker players? Let's hit the jump!

Rapid Reinforcements 2 Announcement Post!

Alright, we finally have enough rulings that I can start getting these articles out. Almost everything has been clarified and these sure.... are cards, alright. I'm working on getting all these out for people and may even have some help soon writing them up, but we'll see how those all get out soon enough. I have..... many feelings about these cards, and the FAQs that arrived today.  I will try not to let them color my judgment too much as the site exists to advise people how to play these cards; I will use those rulings to help write the articles, though!

Expect the first ghost when the clock strikes onnnnnnnne! Or uh, I mean, article, uh, soon

Bonjour mon amis! I'm here (again) with Elred's article, as the first time it didn't seem to take and I was having trouble wit the pictures. So, let's let Nicolas take it away for trial number 2!

Xantos part 2!

And in the interest of getting off my butt and finally posting both of these (to which I again thank Xantos and Elred for their patience), let's get Xantos's Worlds experience out as well.

Full credit, this was Damon's joke, I'm just stealing it for the header
