A new starter set is up for preorder on Mantic's direct site...
https://www.manticgames.com/games/armada/getting-started-armada/armada-taster-set/
...this set comes with only 2 ships from the full starter set, but with all of dice, rules, and token sheets from the original at a reduced price. The most interesting part of this box is that the paper mat they include is only about 1/3 the size of the full starter's mat, but has quick references printed around the edge, along with both ships' statistics, so this is definitely designed for demo games to quickly show off the mechanics.

The demo sampler set for Armada was the only news for August so far, besides the 20% discounts on direct bundles, but today Mantic announced that shipping on orders over $90 is free through the end of the month...
