Noble Armada PDF

Prepare for Command!

Noble Armada is a tactical, miniatures based, space fleet battle game designed to deliver a game experience that balances deep tactics with cinematic action.

Players create fleets for one of the five Royal Houses from the Fading Suns setting and wage war using a ruleset that focuses on fleet command. Careful positioning of ships will enable a fleet to unleash devastating weapon barrages. Targeted attacks and flanking actions can sever lines of communication, hindering an opposing commander’s ability to issue orders to their fleet. Boarding actions allow you to capture opposing ships, and add their resources to your own fleet.

All engines to flank! Raise shields! Brace for Impact!

The rules are simple and fun enough and much more workable than previous versions. It is still obviously a beta and there are a few errors that are jarringly obvious. Such as on a given ship the weapon readouts don't always agree, one one destroyer the weapon chart says it has rockets where the hit local says lasers. I will say that the ships themselves are comparable in terms of layout to previous editions meaning you might be able to reverse engineer some of the other ships from other noble armada games for this. I will close by saying that the core rules (while still needing polish in some areas) make for a more enjoyable experience than other iterations and the inclusion of the victory point system as a core mechanic makes it feel more like the Fading Suns universe. It is still in beta and it needs more refinement and fixing, but there is a workable game here.

Hi Scott, glad you enjoyed it. I wish the final product could have been more polished, and of course any feedback and errata we can take from you and use to update the pdf and put out as a free download for those who bought the physical book would be a great help. I am very happy you feel it is an improvement over previous editions, and also captures the feel of Fading Suns.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
