Star Wars: Armada
One of the great things about Star Wars: Armada is the wide variety of objectives that come with the game. When setting up their forces a player will choose three objectives that hopefully match his fleet’s strengths.
While players can choose to play with unlimited rounds, this option is really only reserved for players who want to play to the complete destruction of the enemy’s forces (which takes time). Some of the objectives need a timer of sorts, but the 6 rounds that the game gives just seem to short to me especially for those who want a slugfest, but don’t have all day to completely finish off their foes. For these games at our house, I have a personal house rule that says for assault objectives, players play for 8-10 rounds instead of the 6 that the game recommends. This allows for an end in sight, but at the same time, it really gives some time to the game.
