This is a sad day for us but, hopefully, some of you will get a boon out of it.
After discussions with Holistic Design (the ultimate owners of Noble Aramada and Fading Suns), the decision has been made to end the current A Call to Arms: Noble Armada game and miniatures line.
We feel we had a really good swing at this - Nine fleets in all, we explored some of empires/ships that had not really been looked at in great detail before, and we shifted the fleets away from the 'everyone gets a Galliot' feel to one where they started to distinguish themselves and gain their own character.
However, the sales have never really been high or even optimum on the line as a whole. We pulled a few of you ex-Babylon 5 players across, and some original Noble Armada players still out there joined us as well but, regretably, the game never really gained critical mass. And yes, there was some overshadowing by Star Fleet.
