What are Formation Armadas and where can I find them?

Formation Armadas are powerful, multi-target encounters located in selected systems of the Delta Quadrant. These coordinated battles pit Commanders against formidable enemies like Species 8472, which invaded our dimension through quantum singularities from fluidic space. Each Armada simulates Starfleet Headquarters structures used for reconnaissance and intelligence gathering.

How do Formation Armadas work?

Each Formation Armada consists of three targets that must be destroyed simultaneously to achieve total victory. Coordination between teams is crucial—if all targets are eliminated together, the entire Armada is annihilated.

Commanders with Operations Level 26 and above can participate in regular Formation Armadas, while Rare Formation Armadas are available for Commanders Ops 38 and above.

  • Three teams (which can belong to different Alliances) each select four Commanders, for a total of 12 participants.
