Commander Drakere Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 Since I didn't see this posted anywhere else, Spartan have announced they'll be revealing details about a new incoming 2 player box for Armada this weekend! Bets anyone that it's Directorate vs Aquans and will feature the ship design seen in proteus prime book? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northerndragons Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 I'll take that bet. Aquan Heavy Carrier, Directorate 'fast' battleship possibly and I think we'll see some Terquai and Works Raptor in there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fracas Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 I'd rather see 2 marauder factions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaknafn Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 If I had to guess I'd say it'd be another classic matchup. The first was Terran/Dindrenzi and the second will be Aquan (from the preview model) and Directorate. Then...maybe next year the Relthoza versus Snakes on a Starship? That's my two ducats.

BRB Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 I'd rather see 2 marauder factions That would be pretty cool, but the low point cost for marauder ships (especially STL are dirt-cheap) kinda disqualifies them. A legal Patrol-fleet-size (1 T1, 2-3 T2, 3-4 T3) STL force would put it ~300 points... Considering the Spartans current shipping practice, I'd wager something like Hawker (with the Regent as an exclusive starter pack model) and Works Raptor with the Opressor (or whatever they're still missing).

ahmadan Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 When Planetfall was announced, there was mention of a tie-in between Proteus Prime boxed set and this new FSA, both should be Aquans vs Directorate. If this has changed is anyone's guess, but I hope not... I hope for the new Heavy Carrier for Aquans, and perhaps the TEV Hidden Knowledge as limited edition or scenery (like the Valhalla station). Then again, my wallet has a faint hope that at least one of those are missing. (It's not like I really need a fourth squad of Aquan cruisers...) zaknafn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XViper Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 Should definitely have 'Starter packs' for all the main races. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pok Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 Wait, terquai? I thought it's gonna have the missing..whatchacallem, kitty race. Not ryushi. Also, hopefully it'll mean we will see the Praetorian and Tyrant out in boxes with escorts (singles are nice, but as they are valid list units, i think they should have proper release) if they are going to discontinue the Valhalla box (I can only assume so).

Darthp00p00 Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 As much as i will scream with joy at the sight of a new set, my wallet has bled enough with PF. I will have to wait to get that heavy carrier when its for sale individually... Sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pok Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 Yeah, getting the entire set just for one aquan carrier would be bit pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sailion Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 Just.. The story from the booklet you get the Planetfall starter box hints at a Terquai ship (not the shuttle). My Thougths are revolving around the what it is, my bet is its an Assault carrier/RD of some kind, with drones. It's also based on that the Terquai need a large for smaller games where you can't field a dreadnought. It's just my guess/assumptions/hopes and probably unrelated but Idk really.
