Description
Release date: Beta begins 3-4 months after Greenlight
In Armada Online, you take command of a starship, and join the battle against the alien Armada.
Explore space, work together with allies to build a defense against the biomechanical horde, or fight other captains in conquest zones. Survive, and evolve.

Key features:
  • Interesting Strategy: Balance broad strategy with tactical control in highly replayable battle zones. Adapt to a wide range of enemy strengths, weaknesses, and behaviors. Some biomechs have vulnerable spots, split into smaller creatures when destroyed, explode when killed, or enhance all aliens around them, creating tactical priorities and interesting roles for specialized ships to play.

  • Varied Experiences: Different areas offer unique experiences. The Burn is a cooperative challenge where players summon stations to defend against enemy onslaught. The Neutral Zone pits two teams of 4-8 players against each other as they race to conquer the map and gain powers to deceive and destroy the enemy. Sector Delta 3 is a large open area where players can explore space and investigate what interests them.

  • Play How You Like: You can be creative with how you set up your ship, powers, and captain skills. Experiment with different builds in different zones. Become a stealth operator that cloaks allies, send tougher enemies into hyperspace for a short time while you engage their weaker allies, use tactical weapons to disrupt enemy formations across the map, or quickly teleport to surprise or elude your foes. Choose skills that enhance your ship's speed, attack power, or give it unusual methods of escaping the enemy or countering their defenses.

  • Openness: Instantly warp where you wish, at any time. Join with others to hunt the Armada, mine asteroids alone if you prefer, or warp into the Neutral Zone to battle other players.

I hope you guys get greenlit soon. I will purchase this game and several copies when it comes out. I will get my Scarab ship to the level it was on dreamcast. Which If I recall was pretty high level lots of hours invested. :)

@ucgambit: the armada website has the alpha files and account creation. Once we are greenlit, it will probably be at least 6 months before we are able to launch the fully featured game.

@mcalister1982: Glad you enjoyed it. Sorry to hear about the controllers. We intend to make the steam version similar, with solo offline and 4x on one machine, in addition to online.

@Bartinkopl: If you want to contact me directly, you can post on the AO website, contact me in-game, or email me (easy to find on website). [My three kids use this steam account to play various games, so we keep it private.]
