Ahoy friends! Here to share my beloved Armada collection. Been heavily invested in the game since day one. If you haven’t tried it out yet - I very much recommend it. Fantastic miniatures to work and play with, but also a solid, fun gameplay.
Nice collection of models and I enjoyed going through your site articles; how was the sail assembly on the Northern Alliance and Salamanders? Were they more or less difficult than the starter Basileans and Orcs?
Salamanders sails are super easy. These are all one part, mast + sail things, glued at an angle that makes it very easy to paint assembled.
NA/Varangur ships are a bit more complicated, mostly due to triangle shaped front sails. Had to work just a bit with them to fit perfectly. Decided to paint assembled to avoid glue coming off of paint after. Was a bit tricky to paint, but in general still easier than let’s say Basileans. As for the general assembly - except for the front triangle piece, all super easy.
Very nice - great scenery and the fleets look really good.
Do want to pick up the NA/varangur ships and the salamanders - painting the latter up along the lines of the fleet from the Pirates of the Caribbean - and get some more ships for my daemon fleet
