I don't play Armada but this is very cool, much better than getting a revamped Falcon for X-Wing.

Very cool.

Much better addition than wave 3.

I kind of soured on armada after wave 1 since it always seemed to be a curb stomp in favor of the empire.

Wave 2 may have equaled that a bit, although it seems the imperial class SD would be even more overpowered than the victory.

May have to get back into it now.

They are announcing Wave 4, but Wave 3 isn't even available yet?

Something wrong w the link, it fails to connect to FF games.
Well I will try to go there directly. Very interested to see what all has been released for Armada.

From the Website, "In Finchley and beyond…
The Leisure Games blog"

They were talking about Armada's Wave 3 release and turned to the topic of "perhaps" the "Super Star destroyer" being produced. They then made the statement:

The Executor is nearly 12 times the length of an Imperial Star Destroyer,..

This brought to mind some 20 yrs ago (at least), finding one of the 1st SW reference books. It leasted the Imperial SD as being 1600 M or Ft. (I dont recall which exactly), and the SSD "Executioner" class as being 8,000 M/Ft, exactly FIVE not 12, but 5 times the size of the Imp. SD.

My point / question. Where did they get these 'stats'? I'd like to know if they were useing books such as one of "The New Essential Guide", which is supposed to be 'cannon' resourse material.

The 11 times figure is per the filming model of the executor.

The control tower is supposed to be the same size as on the imperial/imperator class.

There's a lot of speculation on exactly where the 5x length actually came from.

Didn't the Interdictor cruiser appear in Rebels?
