Seas Of Dread: Armada Introduces Ghosts and Pirates in New Supplement Book
Armada players, get ready to set sail on the high seas for some ghostly and pirate-infested action! Mantic Games has just announced the release of their new supplement book, Seas Of Dread, which will be available for pre-order starting tomorrow.
This new supplement book promises to add plenty of exciting new features to the already popular game. Among the features are an FAQ & Errata section, the Trident Realm Background, Sea Monsters, Interactive Terrain, Multi-Player Games, New Game Modes, New Scenarios, and, most notably, Ghost Fleets and Pirate Fleets.
Ghost Fleets are cursed ships risen from the depths of the ocean by dark arts, continuing their duty in life. These ghost ships are no longer a rare sight and are often accompanied by entire flotillas of spectral sloops and brigs, wailing with the cries of the damned. The Ghost Fleets can be constructed in the same way as a normal fleet, using the ship’s profiles and upgrades detailed in the Seas Of Dread book. Players may use ship models from any other fleet in the Mantic range to represent their ghastly ghost vessels.
Pirate Fleets, on the other hand, are the most feared, merciless, scurvy seadogs ever to sail beneath a black flag. As with Ghost Fleets, players may use ship models from any other fleet to represent the pirate’s vessels. Pirates have unique upgrades and fleet special rules, such as the infamous Jolly Roger.
Both Ghost Fleets and Pirate Fleets have access to the generic standard and magical upgrades available to all fleets, as well as some uniquely designed upgrades for each new fleet, such as the “Fury Of The Damned,” which is a fearsome weapon to have on board.
The book will be available for pre-order starting tomorrow on the Mantic Webstore.
