The rule changes are all fine, but what ever dumbass decided on the large cards, I honestly and sincerely hope you were one of the people fired.  Im not even joking a little bit.
In all my years of gaming this is the dumbest thing i have ever seen.  I have no problem paying money for updated cards or what ever else armada puts out.  I will buy it all.  I spent $900 on this release alone.  So money isnt the issue.
At first i didn't think it would have been a big deal, but now that i have played with them...what a s*** storm.  And i have a full 8' x 4' table.  This was clearly and executive decision and not by someone who actually plays the game.
First of all puting ship data on both sides of the card is rediculous.  You cannot build a fleet without continously flipping the card over.  And this is even reflected in Ryan Kingstons site.  You have to pick the ship before you can see what upgrades it can use.  You cannot see what upgrades to take and look at the ships stats at the same time without continously flipping the the card or using a 2nd card.  Rediculous!
Oh and during the game "how much is that ship worth?  I have no god **** idea...let me fip the cards over so i can count up your points".
We have these massive damage cards that you HAVE to put into the playing area because there is zero room off the table to put beside the ship card.
FFG Idiot: "Now that we have these massive cards that take up the same space as 4 mini cards and the whole table...oh i know lets make even more exhastable cards so it takes even more room."
And probably the worst part there is no segregation of ships and squadrons.  Before you could set things up like a sort of dash board now everthing just meshes together because its all the same and you cannot even leave gaps to segregate different ships.  There is no room.
And if you tell me it was so they could fit all the new text...I call BS.  You already have squadrons with half their abilities listed in the rule book.  They could have done that.
You know why they put all the rules for putting tokens and dials on the table?  Because there is no room off the table for them.
The game was already fiddly enough.  The only complant I ever had for an otherwise perfect game.  Now you've made it 100 times worse.  And I now need a 8'×5' table.  These big cards are a joke.
Oh i know. FFG, for your next great idea lets make defense tokens 8" long because because some dummy says he cannot see them.
Good luck at tournaments that use those tables that are less then 4' wide.
Im not even sure why im posting this because it will fall on deaf ears and all the snowflakes will tell me its not that bad.  It is that bad.

The rule changes are all fine, but what ever dumbass decided on the large cards, I honestly and sincerely hope you were one of the people fired.  Im not even joking a little bit.
In all my years of gaming this is the dumbest thing i have ever seen.  I have no problem paying money for updated cards or what ever else armada puts out.  I will buy it all.  I spent $900 on this release alone.  So money isnt the issue.
At first i didn't think it would have been a big deal, but now that i have played with them...what a s*** storm.  And i have a full 8' x 4' table.  This was clearly and executive decision and not by someone who actually plays the game.
First of all puting ship data on both sides of the card is rediculous.  You cannot build a fleet without continously flipping the card over.  And this is even reflected in Ryan Kingstons site.  You have to pick the ship before you can see what upgrades it can use.  You cannot see what upgrades to take and look at the ships stats at the same time without continously flipping the the card or using a 2nd card.  Rediculous!
Oh and during the game "how much is that ship worth?  I have no god **** idea...let me fip the cards over so i can count up your points".
We have these massive damage cards that you HAVE to put into the playing area because there is zero room off the table to put beside the ship card.
FFG Idiot: "Now that we have these massive cards that take up the same space as 4 mini cards and the whole table...oh i know lets make even more exhastable cards so it takes even more room."
And probably the worst part there is no segregation of ships and squadrons.  Before you could set things up like a sort of dash board now everthing just meshes together because its all the same and you cannot even leave gaps to segregate different ships.  There is no room.
And if you tell me it was so they could fit all the new text...I call BS.  You already have squadrons with half their abilities listed in the rule book.  They could have done that.
You know why they put all the rules for putting tokens and dials on the table?  Because there is no room off the table for them.
The game was already fiddly enough.  The only complant I ever had for an otherwise perfect game.  Now you've made it 100 times worse.  And I now need a 8'×5' table.  These big cards are a joke.
Oh i know. FFG, for your next great idea lets make defense tokens 8" long because because some dummy says he cannot see them.
Good luck at tournaments that use those tables that are less then 4' wide.
Im not even sure why im posting this because it will fall on deaf ears and all the snowflakes will tell me its not that bad.  It is that bad.

The rule changes are all fine, but what ever dumbass decided on the large cards, I honestly and sincerely hope you were one of the people fired.  Im not even joking a little bit.
In all my years of gaming this is the dumbest thing i have ever seen.  I have no problem paying money for updated cards or what ever else armada puts out.  I will buy it all.  I spent $900 on this release alone.  So money isnt the issue.
At first i didn't think it would have been a big deal, but now that i have played with them...what a s*** storm.  And i have a full 8' x 4' table.  This was clearly and executive decision and not by someone who actually plays the game.
First of all puting ship data on both sides of the card is rediculous.  You cannot build a fleet without continously flipping the card over.  And this is even reflected in Ryan Kingstons site.  You have to pick the ship before you can see what upgrades it can use.  You cannot see what upgrades to take and look at the ships stats at the same time without continously flipping the the card or using a 2nd card.  Rediculous!
Oh and during the game "how much is that ship worth?  I have no god **** idea...let me fip the cards over so i can count up your points".
We have these massive damage cards that you HAVE to put into the playing area because there is zero room off the table to put beside the ship card.
FFG Idiot: "Now that we have these massive cards that take up the same space as 4 mini cards and the whole table...oh i know lets make even more exhastable cards so it takes even more room."
And probably the worst part there is no segregation of ships and squadrons.  Before you could set things up like a sort of dash board now everthing just meshes together because its all the same and you cannot even leave gaps to segregate different ships.  There is no room.
And if you tell me it was so they could fit all the new text...I call BS.  You already have squadrons with half their abilities listed in the rule book.  They could have done that.
You know why they put all the rules for putting tokens and dials on the table?  Because there is no room off the table for them.
The game was already fiddly enough.  The only complant I ever had for an otherwise perfect game.  Now you've made it 100 times worse.  And I now need a 8'×5' table.  These big cards are a joke.
Oh i know. FFG, for your next great idea lets make defense tokens 8" long because because some dummy says he cannot see them.
Good luck at tournaments that use those tables that are less then 4' wide.
Im not even sure why im posting this because it will fall on deaf ears and all the snowflakes will tell me its not that bad.  It is that bad.
