In one of my AMD modules I have
require(["//google-analytics.com/analytics.js"]);
It works with requireJS, but, when using almond, I get "Uncaught Error: undefined missing //google-analytics.com/analytics.js" error.
Does this mean almond does not support requiring external scripts?

Yes, that's exactly what it means. From the "Restrictions" section , very first item:
optimize all the modules into one file -- no dynamic code loading.
(Emphasis added.)
Just read one of the almondjs authors comment on github - looks like external scripts are not and won't be supported in near future.
