This is not the post I was planning to publish next, it should have been Bloodbowl related (also posted back in June, but we won’t dwell on that).

I wasn’t expecting to post about Armada again*, I did a review when I first received Armada back in November 2020. I had an initial bout of excitement and attempted to play a little intro/test game with my son (a bit young at the time really). I started assembling and converting some models but motivation dwindled and progress stalled.

One of my blog’s regular readers (perhaps my blog’s one reader, Steve) got in touch to point out I’d either forgotten or was attempting the slowest unboxing ever! I have no excuse* for Sunday, but the week has been manic at work so I’ve not had time/inclination to open doors – my inner child weeps at that statement.
