General Edit

Desktop Armada is a multilayer game on the Casual Collective. It is a 2 player game in which the object is to destroy the opponents base by building ships to attack it. In addition, every 70 seconds or so, reinforcements come. The reinforcements contain 2 destroyers and a missile boat, all not upgraded (even if you have). There are two main modes:

• Normal: Your ships are the normal stats.
• Admirals: You can choose from one of 4 admirals; Upgraded Only

* Normal: Your ships have the normal stats.
* Strong: Large Defense and more costly.
* Engineer: Cheap upgrade prices, ships build faster.
* Scout: Faster ship than normal, also has an extended range.

The following options are available:

• No Points: this game does not count towards your points. Every multi-player game has this mode.
• No Reinforcements: you do not get any reinforcements
