Collectible doesn't mean fun
0 of 4 found this helpful I really enjoyed the first Armada game. So I decided to pick up the second. Unfortunatly the fun of the first game is not present.
The game has some neat ideas and features. There is a 3D mechanic to the maps so you can move ships into formations that take advantage of the space in new ways. Ships can warp to far away distances making map exploration fast, and there are lots of new ships, including a few that should have been in the first game. The BORG can link up 8 cubes into a super cube which is really powerful. But sadly when it comes down to it none of the new features make the game any fun.
It's a real shame too. The first game wasn't revolutionary but it gave RTS fans who were Trekkies a chance to play with familiar settings and ships and characters.
I would not recommend this game. It has become semi-collectible due to there not being many copies out there and that means it usually sells for a premium price despite it's age. The problem is that there aren't many copies because anyone who bought it likely broke the disc out of disgust. Save your money and get any better space RTS.
