The Providence has moved itself into my favorite ship spot right now. It has a lot of build options between the variants, and is a fun brawler. It's really easy to double-arc, and can survive several rounds of combat while putting out damage. It's a great ship.
Great video Crabbok! On your discord I see a lot of people (especially new people) building lists without a clear goal in mind. While I and others can help to a certain extent, having a more general advice video like this to point to is a great resource! Oh, and for favorite ship, I have to say the good ol' Imperial-class Star Destroyer takes the cake.
Just started playing armada last week. Thanks for the recommended expansions for new players videos in particular! Your videos have helped me figure out this game and really enjoy it with my friends! I really want to pick me up an mc30 and an upgrade card collection but most places just don't have either in stock. :(
It might be a vanilla answer but I have to say the classic imperial class star destroyer is my favorite ship in all of Star Wars. So recognizable and a great representation of imperial might.
Thanks for this clever way to introduce new players into the very important fleet-building aspect of Armada. Here's hoping it brings more players to the table! My favorite ship in Star Wars: Armada is probably the Assault Frigate MkII. It might not be the most beautiful thing to look at, but the versatility of this ship allows it to fill almost ANY conceivable role, and it appears in almost every single one of my Rebel builds, and is my most used ship by a longshot.
From childhood to young adult my fav was always the Super Star Destroyer. Today I love the Gladiator Class Star Destroyer. If looks are key this is the meanest looking guy on the field.
I uses to say the venator was favorite, and it is still my favorite death triangle, but I think if I had to pick just one, I'd go with AF Mk2. It is just really different, and unique. I know it isn't popular, but I like it.
I love the look of the interdictors but in practice I just love the firepower of a star destroyer. It iconic and hits hard. They'd be so good if they could take thermal shields. I hope they make a rules change for that to be a cross era card.
Hey, really love your videos! Definitely got me to go all in on Star Wars Armada, and I'd have to say my favorite ship in star wars would have to be the Mandalorian Kandosii-Type Dreadnought!!!
The one I screw up the most is "Remember your cards" lol. I always forget to set up boarding troopers and then it's time to use it and I'm like oh... right. I also forget to use Vanto often when I'm resolving commands because I'm so focused on resolving the commands. Sometimes it's just a lot to keep track of haha.
The original armada core set is currently on sale for $58 on both amazon and walmart. It's most likely just be them trying to clear out some inventory, but, maybe it means they are getting ready to release some new single faction starters for the rebels and empire. After all, it has been a hot minute since the rebels and empire got anything new. Like I said , it is probably just a sale to clear some inventory, but it is something interesting to think about. If they did single faction starters for the Rebels and Empire, what ships do you think they would include? (assuming they stuck to the same format of 1 medium ship and 2 smalls, along with 4 squadrons.)
Got a 3d printed one, with so many pieces( ignition, Interdictor wells,and the fact it can basically one-shot any ship) I have no idea how to home brew it to work like it's supposed to without making an op monster. Sorry for the rant but I love the eclipse as well.
While watching your amazing double interdictor build, I got a question. What if the opponent choose to be the second player himself? According to my experience, there is almost nothing to do with two interdictor if the opponent doesn't attack me and focus on his objectives.
Do you have a video like this for X-Wing? New to both games (haven't played yet!!!) Favorite ships? Rebels: X-wing, Falcon, Tantive Empire Imp Star Destroyer, Gozanti......
Loved the video Crabbok! Here's a way to remember what your C.H.I.L.E. System is… Crabbok's Help in Idea's for your Lists and their Execution! How does that sound man! Sounds good right? What about putting some Venators, with a Victory, a few Arquitens, a couple of CR 90 Corvettes with upgrades like the DBY-827 Turbolasers for the Venators and Arquitens, Advanced Turbolasers for the Victory, Rerouters on the Arquitens and the CR 90's, and maybe Flight command for the Venators and Bomber Command Center on the Victory, and from what I remember in your videos, the Victory (1) Star Destroyers have 3 squadrons like the Venator (1)'s; meaning I'd have a Victory with a V-wing, a Y-wing, and an A-wing squadron, a Venator with a V-wing, ARC-170, and a Y-wing squadron, and a pair of Venator-II's with an X-wing, a Z-95 Headhunter, a V-wing, a Y-wing and an ARC-170 squadron for the Main bulk of the fleet. Sounds very, VERY *CHUNGUS* for a fleet, would I be correct in guessing the points to be about 1000-1200 minimum?
Salvo is a defense token that some ships have that allows them to make a counter attack, (also called a Salvo Attack), after being attacked by another ship or squadron. It uses the rear printed battery in terms of how many dice it rolls, and fires even if you are destroyed.
I'm just getting into Armada and I really appreciate your videos. It helps.
You gotta love the ISD because it’s so iconic and menacing but when you add Thrawns chimera paint job on the underbelly it makes it look even better.
This was incredibly helpful as a person really just getting into the game.
The CHILE system! But forget the first two letters, they aren’t important. Lol, good information!
The first two letter are CH, just like the Montreal hockey team, is this a way to support our team?
The Providence has moved itself into my favorite ship spot right now. It has a lot of build options between the variants, and is a fun brawler. It's really easy to double-arc, and can survive several rounds of combat while putting out damage. It's a great ship.
As a Newbie in Star Wars Armada, your videos helps a lot. Thank you and greetings from Germany.
Same here

Always good! Imperial Star Destroyer is my favorite.
Just got into Armada recently mainly thanks to your videos! My favourite ship has to be the Profundity.
About to play my first game with my own minis, the timing couldn’t be better! Thank you!
I’m loving all the strategy videos and fleet building. New to the game trying to optimize what little upgrades I have haha

Welcome to the hobby! Gotta be patient with restocks - they'll eventually happen but sometimes it takes 6 months or more.
Just had a comp game of overwatch with you on oasis
it was pretty fun having a mercy of your skill level always rezing me :)
GG!

Love the CHILE system. Favorite ship has to be the Venator

I love the Venator or the Arquitens.
From childhood to young adult my fav was always the Super Star Destroyer. Today I love the Gladiator Class Star Destroyer. If looks are key this is the meanest looking guy on the field.
I am a huge fan of the Imperial light cruiser
Same here!
I'm currently really enjoying the Recusant now it's been fun!
Thanks Crabbok. thanks to you and you very detailed videos i have decided to dive in to Armada!!
I uses to say the venator was favorite, and it is still my favorite death triangle, but I think if I had to pick just one, I'd go with AF Mk2. It is just really different, and unique. I know it isn't popular, but I like it.

I feel a follow up video to this is in order. One to help players that don't want to meta build, and rather build a fun list that is SUPER goofy
Hey, really love your videos! Definitely got me to go all in on Star Wars Armada, and I'd have to say my favorite ship in star wars would have to be the Mandalorian Kandosii-Type Dreadnought!!!
As a returning player it's nice to get some advice on how to play the game.
I really love a Raider Class Corvette, such a cool looking ship that can really be a threat on the table in X-Wing
The ship that got me into the game was the SSD. Just sooooo epic
I like the Recusant, even though I don't have it yet.
That Onager really is the best
My favorite ship in Star Wars probably has to be the CR-90!
Thanks for the video! I have to say my favorite ship is the interdictor but the Onager is getting close to taking that spot.
I bet a lot of people are going to say this but... my favorite ship is the Venator, closely followed by the Arquitens.
yes exactly, venator for the win
The Star Speeder 3000 is my favorite. It was the first one I could ever "fly" on, and as a kid that made Star Wars real to me.
The one I screw up the most is "Remember your cards" lol. I always forget to set up boarding troopers and then it's time to use it and I'm like oh... right.

Thanks for the video. Favorite ship is a big ask. Maybe the outrider?
My favourite are the entire Tie series of fighters from the basic to the bomber, interceptor, advanced, phantom and defender.
Love your vids crabbok!
I like the Venator the best, big ship wise. My fav fighter sized is either the eta-2 or the armored y-wing.
The Onager Star Destroyer is my favorite ship:) It has a bit of a glass jaw but still really cool!
Great vid. The intro kinda reminded me of mike's explanations in The Office though ;-)
My favourite ship in Star Wars has to be the Imperial Class Star Destroyer.
But the Dreadnaught cruiser is a close second.
The ship I like the most is the Dreadnaught-class heavy cruiser and the Venator.
I love the Nebulan B
My fave ship is definitely the Venator-class Star Destroyer.
my favourite is the Venator Class Attack Cruiser!
Helpful and the modified YV-666
Favorite ship is by far the Venator. Probably my favorite ship in all of sci fi tbh.
The Firespray is my favorite
The Tie Defender!
Currently, my favorite ship it the Providence Class
My favourite ship in all of Star Wars would have to be the Nebulon-B Frigate.
My favorite is probably the MC75 Ordnance Cruiser
Love it
Tie fighter. It’s iconic
Good stuff 👍🏽 👍🏽
Imperial Class Star Destroyer - hands down
The original armada core set is currently on sale for $58 on both amazon and walmart. It's most likely just be them trying to clear out some inventory, but, maybe it means they are getting ready to release some new single faction starters for the rebels and empire.

(assuming they stuck to the same format of 1 medium ship and 2 smalls, along with 4 squadrons.)
Favorite ship is just the basic Tie/ln but in numbers.
Decklaration, nice.
The imperial raider would probably be my newest favorite ship
My favorite ship is the Venator class star destroyer
favorite ship is the Eclipse/Eclipse II. i really hope ffg makes some of those dark empire ships
Got a 3d printed one, with so many pieces( ignition, Interdictor wells,and the fact it can basically one-shot any ship) I have no idea how to home brew it to work like it's supposed to without making an op monster. Sorry for the rant but I love the eclipse as well.

favorite ship is the providence
Hi, I'm going to prepare for my first tournament, how should I play the Interdictor?
PD: Thank you for your videos, I am really learning a lot.
Gotta be the SSD!!
My favorite ship is the ISD II and SSD
Could you make a slightly altered version for legion bc that would be cool
Starhawk for rebel or Chimeara it’s cause Thrawn is amazing
As the great Leonard Snart once said.
Make the plan.
Execute the plan.
Expect the plan to go off the rails.
Throw away the plan.
B-Wing
Do you have a video like this for X-Wing? New to both games (haven't played yet!!!) Favorite ships? Rebels: X-wing, Falcon, Tantive Empire Imp Star Destroyer, Gozanti......
My favorite ship in Star Wars is the Imperial II Class Star Destroyer
Or the Quasar Carrier👌🏼
Loved the video Crabbok! Here's a way to remember what your C.H.I.L.E. System is…
Crabbok's
Help in
Idea's for your
Lists and their
Execution!

Sounds very, VERY *CHUNGUS* for a fleet, would I be correct in guessing the points to be about 1000-1200 minimum?
I would have to say that my favorite ship in star wars is the aclamator.
Hello!! Do you still do give aways?
ISD 2
Best ship period
Hammerhead baby
Favo ship = Imperial Light Cruiser
Love the Victory, even though it's probably the worst one in the game.
What in the world is the "salvo" you say constantly?
Salvo is a defense token that some ships have that allows them to make a counter attack, (also called a Salvo Attack), after being attacked by another ship or squadron. It uses the rear printed battery in terms of how many dice it rolls, and fires even if you are destroyed.
C.H.I.L.E makes me thing of the T.A.C.O.S. from the Lego movie. (The 's' is silent.)
space ghurkin
I am pretty sure without the H you would have a soft system which means it would be pronounced silly.
Executor 2
When running this ship you know things are going to get insane🤡
who is joe? 2
Where is Joe? 2
bummer command centre, lol
It took this long to do this video, the game has been out for a while.
ah... no... we are expecting specific ideas, strategies
