Fleet Builds and new Players

Recommended Posts

Hi!

Very soon I'll introduce my brother in Armada. So far he played lots of X-Wing and is familiar with the typical FFG approach. But I'm not sure if using all available upgrade cards (I own nearly all of them) are could be too much while building a fleet, as he isn't really familiar with the game. Any suggestions or experience of introducing a new player? I don't want to treat him like a fool, but also don't overwhelm him.

Thanks for any answer!

  • Play a 300 point fleet game.
  • Let him go first player and don't do a mission to start with.
  • On each ship limit it to 1-2 upgrade cards per ship.
  • Include a couple of fighters and a couple of bombers on each side to give a flavour but without all the intricacies of maxed out carrier war.
  • Second and third games play a mission with you, them him, as first player.
  • By game 4 use full 400 point fleets and start to put normal levels of upgrades on them.
