Complete, Unplayed, and Unpunched!

The cover (high grade excellent condition with slight creasing mostly at the right corners), magazine with rules attached (high grade excellent condition due to slight mostly-in-the borders creasing at the right corners, otherwise with glossy smooth pages, no marks, highlighting, etc.), full color 22" x35" map (high grade excellent condition with bright clean colors and some creasing in the border areas), and 200 counters (unpunched, new condition) are all in high grade excellent to new condition.

The Outstanding Bonus includes a copy of the 2nd Edition Rules with errata which did not appear in the original magazine, plus a turn worksheet, variant combat and purchases tables, a video game review, several game reviews, and a bit more.  Also included are errata from S&T # 73, but you would probably be better off to ignore this along with the 1st Edition Rules and just use the 2nd Edition Rules.  We have heard a number of testimonies through the years about how unplayable the 1st (magazine) edition rules are.
  Some to all of the bonus will be sent by email upon shipping your purchase.   All bonus and extras material are available for sale separately if requested.

Second Edition rules are designed by the outstanding team of Eric Goldberg and Greg Costikyan, who each individually authored many many popular games.  Armada, itself was rather popular and stayed in print through several printings and editions.

Armada is a strategic simulation of two critical years in the Anglo-Spanish conflict with emphasis placed on financial planning vital to waging a campaign.  Each player must carefully plan a cost-efficient strategy.

Game designer Sterling S. Hart.  Published January 1979 by SPI.

Happy pup. Worth it.
My dog loves this thing. It takes hardly any effort to launch the ball. Flick of the wrist kinda thing. The squeaky ball is her favorite but unfortunately you can't buy this brand of ball separately. It says compatible with any 2.5 inch ball but that's not true. We have a ton of Penn tennis balls and they are just slightly too big for this launcher. You can do it but it's a huge pain and hard to throw. Another issue is that when we first got it the handle didn't want to stay screwed together. After the first day of use and having to rescrew it together multiple times, the issue seems to have corrected itself? Either way, for the price with the comfy handle, very low effort throwing for big pay off, two balls included and the crazy excitement from my dog anytime we get near the thing. It's definitely worth it. I like it much better than the chuck it and stone random cheap brand we used to have. I'm going to try one of the balls recommended in the product pictures. I'll update if they work out.

Ergonomic and well made.
I have at least a half dozen ball launchers and this is the nicest one. As efficient as any of them and it feels the nicest in my hand. As long as you tighten the handle when you put it together, it will serve your puppy well.

Ball Launcher Poorly Made and Hard To Use, Save Your Money
This launcher was too long and thin to pick up the ball from the ground, I had to use my other hand to press down on it. The screw on handle was heavy and kept coming loose no matter how tight I made it, strain on the wrist to use. The ball holder end would often not let go of the ball when trying to launch it. I ended up putting it in the trash. I had two shorter Chuckit launchers that are much better made, will stick with them. I don't recommend this to anyone, save your money.

Go Get It!
GoSports does it again. Our family has a lot of GoSports products. It brings us comfort knowing when we order a product from them the quality is going to be great. The Ball Launcher is excellent. Our lab loves the soft tennis balls that come with it, preferring them over the harder rubber ones from other brands. The launcher itself is thoughtfully designed, well-made, and comfortable to hold. Our new go-to for daily fetch sessions.

Gave it a Try
I have always used the Chuck It ball and ball launcher. I thought I would try this since the price was better. There is definitely a reason it is priced lower. The handle on this one twists on and constantly comes undone when you throw, and it does not launch nearly as well. I would not order this product again.
