This maneuver tool is one of the game’s most innovative features and adds a unique feel to the way your capital ships must accommodate for inertia as they maneuver through the stars.

The CW factions are new releases, occurring after Armada’s transition into its 1.5 th Edition. Their rosters use the most up-to-date rules and card formats, and bring a load of interesting new mechanics to the table.

In case you missed it, the short version is: In the Status Phase, players ready their exhausted defense cards and flip the initiative token. Then the player with initiative increases the round count, or if you’ve just completed the sixth round, the game ends. Victory is awarded to the player who has scored more total points, counting both those awarded for eliminating enemy ships and squadrons as well as those awarded for completing objectives worth victory points. The game comes with objective cards, and players will need to select one for the match. These objectives influence the gameplay and scoring, so choose wisely. Lastly, place your ships within a range ruler’s length of your edge of the play area and let the space battle commence! How Long Does it Take to Play Star Wars: Armada?
