So we have been digging into Armada lately, and have a full compliment of accessories to release for it. A few make game play easier, and a few are direct replacements for cardboard components. 

First up are the range rulers. 

Range Ruler – Price $8.99 USD

These range rulers replace the cardboard one, and come with a set of acrylic number tokens that fit inside the maneuver tool. Available in three fluorescent colors.

Fighter Movement Ruler – Price $8.99 USD

This set replaces the other side of the ruler, and comes with one range ruler to measure engagement in those tight spaces.

We did some serious thinking and came up with a great way to replace the fighter activation sliders. They look great in the fluorescent colors, and will last a long time.

Fighter Activation Slider Set – $5.99 USD

Next up, we have acrylic replacements for the command dials. These fit into the stackable plastic cases, just like the cardboard. They look great when you customize them by filling the etches with paint or even a crayon!

Command Dial Set – Price $2.99 USD

Command Dials

Armada's objective system is a great way to add to the game play, but who wants to mark mines with boring cardboard tokens. So we have an acrylic set to replace all of them.

Objective Marker Set – Price $5.99 USD

Objective Tokens

We also worked up some shield dials that drop right into the bases, and use the same connectors as the cardboard ones. Again, coloring them in with a crayon really helps the visibility.

Shield Dials

We also figured it would be nice to have some organization to those ship cards. So we created a dial with integrated slots for the defense tokens. We are using a new dial system that will lay flat. They are super easy to assemble, as the dial is already attached, and all you have to do it peel and stick the token frame onto the dial. They are sized to the same height as the Armada ship cards.

Ship Dial – Price $4.99 USD

So Armada is great, but those little fighters are always getting in the way. So we came up with another location set, like we did for X-Wing. This one is a bit more complex, and includes tokens to keep track of the ships as well as the fighters. The ship location markers slip right into the back or front of the base.

Location Marker Set – Price $4.99 USD

Next, we have several tokens to replace the various command tokens.

Repair Command Token – Price $2.99 USD

Squadron Command Token – Price $2.99 USD

Concentrate Fire Tokens – Price $2.99 USD

Navigation Command Tokens – Price $2.99 USD

We know a lot of people have been asking for a turn dial as well. So we made a simple one to keep track of the turns.

Turn Dial – Price $2.99 USD

Turn Dial

So that dial was a bit too simple for us. We went a bit crazy, and this came out. This is our Deluxe Turn Dial. It rotates to indicate all six turns, and the gears move each other so it flips back and forth between orange and blue activate on every other turn. Oh, and it comes with a removable stand!

Deluxe Turn Dial – Price $14.99 USD

Deluxe Turn Dial

So this is a lot of upgrades all at once. We know some people will not want them all, but for you guys who want to replace everything in the core set, then we have a limited-time deal for you. 

Core Set Upgrade Kit – Price $74.99 USD (over $87 USD separately) 

Core Set Upgrade Pack

We will continue to watch Armada very carefully and see what else needs to be upgraded or helped along, but we have a great start!
