Marc and I are heading to Darksphere for their store championships on Sunday if there are any budding Armada admirals who'd like to join us.
12:00-20:00, three games, £6 and a good way to start in the game

And the results are in, after a gruelling 8 hours and three games Eagle Squadron placed well in a field of 16 players. Marc came in 5th and I made 2nd and we both took home some great prizes (acrylic range rulers for us both)
Anyway, was great (and very tough) to come up against a wide variety of other lists and we both enjoyed how the subtle nuances of the game are getting revealed.
Looking forward to the winter kit in March and more than happy to run practice games and demos if anyone is keen to join us

I second that. Gruelling 8 hours but loads of fun and a lot learnt. The one thing that stood out for me is that there were a wide variety of lists. Wave 2 really shook up the game in a good way. There is no clearly defined meta really and no lists outshining others. Very balanced. Most games I saw and played came down to the last turn to decide it.
Also was very pleased with my 5th place.
Also more than happy to run demo games for anyone interested or if you have had a demo already happy to run a full game. You don't necessarily need any ships of your own as I have both Rebel and Imperial fleets and can field pretty much anything desired.

Congratualtions - Sounds like you had a good time. I'm up for an Armada demo at some point. Doesn't have to be this week if you are tired of Armada!

Great to see you both had fun and also great to see Eagle Squadron placing well!
Now, I'll just have to find a week to start using my Star Destroyers...

Thanks Guys, happy to run a demo Dave, can set up the base game intro which has enough to give a flavour of the game.
Though as you say, I've got the Darksphere X-wing Store Champs on the 7th Feb so next two weeks'll be x-wing practice before maybe switching back to Armada.
Marc might be available before then though.

Thanks guys.
Also happy to run an demo any time Dave. Will be playing X-Wing this week but how about next Thursday?
Matt shout whenever you are keen for a game too. I always like to burn me down some Star Destroyers. haha

I'm easy mate. I can probably be down for about 6:30 if that suits
