Pizza Time! - FD Cannon Unit Guide

The 1.4 FD Laser Cannon Team (that's a mouthful) is a unit that goes back and forth between favorability within the community. As with everything, there are a few die-hard fans who will always bring them and a few haters who will never bring them. The rest of us

General Jan Dodonna

General Dodonna was a member of the galactic republic during the clones wars and a general in the rebellion during the galactic civil war. For us rebel players, General Dodonna was most likely the first commander we used in Armada, and in my opinion, he remains one of the best

VCX-100 Freighter Squadron

Apologies for the lack of an article the last two weeks, I am amidst moving homes and have been quite busy. There will be an irregular post schedule from me at least until the end of this month as we still have a bit of work to do before we

E-Wing Squadron

Before I start today's article I want to let you guys know I will be at Rocky Top Game Con this weekend. I will be helping run the Armada demo games on Saturday so come say hi! It is in the Jacobs Building at Chilhowee Park in Knoxville, TN. Hope

Hammerhead Corvette

Have you ever thought "Hm, this space battle would be a whole lot easier if I could just forgo shooting and smack my opponent in the face."? Well, have I got some news for you... The Hammerhead Corvette allows you to do that exact thing! (Assuming you don't get blown

RZ-1 A-Wing Squadron

The RZ-1 A-Wing Interceptor is one of the most iconic starfighters in Star Wars. It was used by the Rebellion in many different battles, including Endor. It was here where an A-Wing piloted by Arvel Crynyd was responsible for sinking the Empire's Super Star Destroyer Executor by crashing into its

BTL Y-Wing Squadron

I know, I know. 3 Squadron articles in a row!? I recently re-watched the Original Trilogy of Star Wars and I fell in love with these all over again so I really wanted to write about them in-game. After today all that's left is the A-Wing and then I'll switch

A/SF-01 B-Wing Squadron

B-wings, the hard to kill, heavy-hitting slowpokes. I love these things but it takes some good practice to use them to their maximum potential. B-wings feel to me like the stereotypical heavy option from any video game. They move slow and they're hard to kill but when they get to

T-65 X-Wing Squadron

X-Wings, the heroes of the rebellion! X-wings are the quintessential Star Wars fighter. They appear in nearly all Star Wars media in some fashion. It is one of the coolest-looking ships in Star Wars with its X shaped s-foils that open and close. The first time I saw that on-screen

General Rieekan

The rebel boogieman of the early waves: General Rieekan! Rieekan is one of the most powerful and fun commanders for the rebellion. He has a bunch of worlds wins under his belt and even more when it comes to small tourneys, though as of late his popularity has seemed to

The Hangar: The Rebel Alliance

Welcome to The Hangar, pilot! In this series we talk about starfighters, freighters, shuttles, racers, bombers, gunships, and everything else in between. This is the chance to look "under the hood," as it were, and explore what makes our favorite ships great. The first round of posts in this section

Mc30 Frigate

Mon Calamari Shipyards went absolutely crazy when designing and building these bad boys. Mc30s (30s, Shrimp) are the in-game equivalent of straight-up launching a rocket at your opponent's face. Mc30s are my favorite ship in the entire game. Let's discuss why: Alright, off the bat we can see that they

YT-1300 Light Freighter

One of the most iconic ships in all of Star Wars and it's at your fingertips. Mostly used as a freighter, the YT-1300 has also been seen as a smuggler's craft. The most notable was Han Solo's Millennium Falcon, which was present at the destruction of both Death Stars. In-game
