“Star Wars: Armada” Launched by Fantasy Flight Games
*Cue Imperial March Theme*
Fantasy Flight Games really isn't messing around with its "Star Wars" games this year. In 2012, Fantasy Flight first came out with their "X-Wing Miniatures" game, which allowed players to build fleets of fighters and dogfight it out right on the kitchen table. Since then, they've released dozens of expansions, giving players access to more ships and more abilities and more ways to bring "Star Wars" to life. The game is fun, simple, and elegantly designed; you can pick it up and start playing in less than 15 minutes. Each game has the potential to be completely different from the last, but still, after playing a few rounds, you start to think about the other ships of the "Star Wars" universe, about how small an "X-Wing" is. And about how big some of the other ships are. Read more »
