Quotethere's no question that Armada 2526/Supernova remains my favorite TBS 4x title in the last several years -- if not ever.

Martok is somehow responsible that I am now playing Armada, a great elegant game that fulfills my need for a 4X space opera game to 100%. A blast to play via PbEM. I'm perfectly happy with it :)

Seems this goes on sale at times...when I bought it was only $5:)

was it the Gold version on sale , or without supernova expansion. But It sounds a good deal anyway :)

Pretty sure it was the gold edition....only played it once or twice and lost interest.

Found my order....it wasn't an actual gold version, but it was a sale where I got the original game plus the super nova expansion for a total of $5.26.....this was at gamefly/direct2drive back in the 2011 holiday sale.

Cheers for the welcome, I might hang around a while since I've decloaked.  :)
I certainly recommend it.  This is a good place to hang out.  8)

I might grab it anyway, I'm sure it'll give me a good idea whether I'll enjoy the full game with expansion.
True enough.  I definitely enjoyed the vanilla game, so I'd consider it money well-spent in any case. 

And yes, the base game does indeed give you a good idea of whether you'd like Supernova as well -- if you like/dislike the former, you'll also like/dislike the latter.

Always good to know I've created another addict.  ;D 

Seriously, though, I'm glad you and Hiimori are enjoying it!  Good to know my recommendation worked out for you.  :)
