The Most In-Demand Ships for Star Wars Armada

As a new player, it is hard to really jump into the game when the product is so scarce. I’ve been watching many of your ship breakdown videos and got excited about a ship to later realize you can’t find it. I do hope this game gets some love.

The arquitens always seems to be in high demand

New player. Picked up a Chimera and plan to repaint it. But I want to run the ISD1. Would be a bit of buyers remorse if they rereleased the ISD, but it'd be nice to see Armada getting love again

Just snagged a bulk lot off ebay, got 1x ISD, 3x VSD, 2x Gladiator, 2x Raider, 1x Home One MC80, 1x Assault Frigate MkII, 2x Nebulon-B, 2x CR90, 2x MC30 and a bunch of squadrons and some Clone Wars era ships, all for approximately £189. I also separately purchased an unused core set, still sealed Super Star Destroyer and Liberty for a total of ~£240. Just started getting into this game, I used to have a decent sized x wing collection and I've missed tabletop, but I've always preferred ship-scale combat than fighter-scale combat.

I love your Armada content! I have been playing Armada for a couple years and have nearly every ship. I can attest to there never being any Arquitens in stock. It's like a celebration when there are some in stock. I let all my friends know and we all buy some.

It's awesome that you are always trying to help new players learn about what to get with a lot of good info

I am surprised that an individual Starter Set for Rebel Alliance and Galactic Empire wasn't mentioned. That could be a good way to spruce the line up. Also, more cross faction ships, especially the Republic ones. Both Empire and Rebels used the various classes and the Empire did start more than a few Rebel ships.

I mainly have played 40k and still do but armada is now my favorite war game. I hope the game continues for years to come.

Can you do an in-depth how to play of rebellion in the rim?

Thanks for the great info!

Always enjoy these Armada videos on what to buy!

I got two Arquitens last year when I first got into the game and I am glad I did! I am so grateful I am not having to search high and low for them 😅

I have a well rounded Rebel and Imperial fleet, but I'm still missing several key ships like the Raider, Onager, Interdictor, Chimaera and the SSD. For the Rebels I still don't have the Liberty, Profundity, Mc30, Hammerhead Corvettes and then of course all the Clone Wars ships.

I love armada and would love more support for it.

I know it's unlikely but I wish AMG would fix all the old boxes with the new card sizes and errata. They could also do with removing all the extra junk you get in each box (speed dials and tokens, etc.) to save money.

So glad I got into this when ships were actually available. Own a good size imperial fleet

I also would love an ISD 1. Thanks for the overview. I hope Asmodee/AMG watches this!

Wanted to see them to make a Titan Class Star Destroyer. That ship is awesome

I love my Chimera but I need one or better yet two regular ISDs to flank thrawn on my shelf of course because these models are beautiful.

I eye the Republic starter a lot around this time of year. Armada is something I would like to get into, but it gets little play in my area, so I’d mostly be getting it for the models to look at in my basement.
