New Ships for Noble Armada!

[MongooseMatt]

We have a variety of new ships now available for Noble Armada, with reinforcements for the Noble Houses, and the technologically advanced Church fleet.

No single institution has as much impact on day-to-day life in the Known Worlds than does the Church. Despite the Church’s many factions and sects, the average peasant sees it as a giant monolith, dedicated to saving humanity from the evil inherent in the universe. As far as commoners can tell, all priests, bishops, archbishops and patriarchs work toward the same goal, hand-in-hand, fighting evil together. Never mind the fact that they call one another heretics; the Church itself is good. The peasants’ view only changes when someone tries to replace the sect of their ancestors with a new one.

You can see the new Church fleet at;

We have also just released the Decados Michaelangelo Light Cruiser, and House Li Halan now has access to the Ananda Martyr Fighter, capable of wrecking even large warships in a collision!

Raphael and Michaelangelo cruisers, Donatello gunship and Leonardo monitor - are Decados some sort of mutants?

I can't say I'm overly fond of the Decados black/green colour scheme, although the design looks fine. The Church ships, on the other hand, look superb, though I wonder how heretics - er, players - will paint them.

It would be interesting to see how the Church and Caliphate fleets look when lined up against one another; with so many heat blasters and suicide fighters to go around, things are bound to get messy.


And I would have imagined the inspiration for those particular Decados names to have been more to do with the Renaissance-era namesakes, were it not for the fact that all of the painted samples have plenty of green on them...

Just to let you know, the last of the Church ships are now up, including their Carrier and Monitor!

first: lovely paint jobs - great work and stunning detials.

I like the Galliot, Grand Cruiser and firagtes alot but not keen on the rest of the designs

 

[Nerroth]

has it been decided whether or not the Church will get its own fleet box; and if there will be one, what units are going to be chosen for it?

 

[Ben2]

I'd guess

4 The Rack class Frigates
2 Halvor Class Galliots
2 Zorothion Class Destroyers
1 Palamedes Class Carrier
6 Sacrement Class Support Fighters
6 Hadara Class Support Fighters

Which would be a little like the Hazat fleet pack but with enough fighters.

However that makes it a no brainer to buy two boxes, a cruiser, a grand cruiser and another pack of fighters and go with a carrier heavy fleet with 30 fighters.
