Battle Report Following the traumatic house move that saw several of my Armada ships damaged I have now managed 2 complete games in 2 weeks, which I don't think I've done since the pandemic.

Once again I have failed to capture the stages of the fight, but Imperial victory following some dumb manoeuvres by me to help train up another friend (honest). He took out my Providence and Gonzos but my reliable Hyenas managed to dog one of his Gladiators until it was dead so it wasn't the tabling it could have been.

To make up for the lack of battle pics here is my fleet in its new home, several hours of patient gluing has got them all fixed (though some are permanently fixed to their stands now).

Also bonus cat. Her predecessor was a very chatty boy Siamese who would sit on the table and watch us play and never ever disrupted the models, she is not yet convinced by Armada, but did come in and shout at us at one point, possibly for being nerds.

Hurrah!
Glad you’re able to play games.

Flying a fleet is indeed always a joy. Also, is that Welsh in your username?

Me looking at your collection half-awake:

“I guess an old refrigerator is one way to store the fleet”

🤣 I had to put up a set of very carefully measure shelves, my house is about a 140 years old and there are no straight lines anywhere. The shelves dont look straight but it's actually the chimney breast next to it that slopes outwards.

Ahh the age old “level with the house, level with the earth, or level by vibes alone” conundrum

As well as it being sort of fast and loose with angles it was also built on the site of a former stables so is probably riddled with horse ghosts.
