Joshua MacDonald here. Dunno if you have this info already but I finished top 16 with

Whisper + VI + ACD + FCS + Intel Agent

Academy x5

I really like Whisper with 5x Academy. I have a couple of questions if you don´t mind:

1) Did you feel Intel Agent paid off instead of just spending the 1 point on initiative bid?

2) Do you feel Rebel Captive would have been even more useful than FCS?

Congrats on your accomplishments at the tournament!

I'd like to give this thread a bump.

I'll do so with the following pretext:

MJ, when are we going to get the stats??! Inquiring minds want to know.

I already have the stats for the Top 32, so I can get those posted shortly. The next episode of NOVA squadron radio is airing in a couple days, and I referenced some of the numbers, so I should at least get those posted concurrent with the show.

The stats including all of the squads will take a little longer, as pulling in that data manually takes some time. Sometime in January or later, I will probably be able to analyze all of the individual matchups to do a archetype vs archetype comparison. Unfortunately getting the data into a usable format is very labor intensive. The output from FFG's in-house tournament software is not nearly as user friendly as Cryodex.

Some basic statistics for the Top 32 are now up on the 2nd post.

Overall Ship Usage
YT-1300 25.07% 31.04% 124%
TIE Fighter 24.57% 24.91% 101%

Is that the percentage of lists that had those ships, or the percentage of ships that were those ships?

Everything is based on percentage of points spent. For example, a 60 point Han Solo in a 100 point Han Solo would result in 60% of all points being spent on turrets.

In the snippet above, one quarter of the points were spent on YT-1300, and another one-quarter was spent on TIE Fighters. The YT-1300 did slightly better with the overall weighted average since Paul won with it.

Juggler - I'm a data munging fiend, in case you need help with normalization. feel free to shoot me a PM.

It's an issue of getting the data entered in, in the first place. Sean Dorcy (XwingTOman) would know more about the round-by-round details. I DO have all the squad sheets in scanned PDF form, so if you wanted to help enter those squad details in.... I'll send you a PM. :)

You can link me under Evan Claassen if you are still updating. Im Legionthree on TC as well.

Done! Do you have any tournament history you would like me to record while we're at it?

As and FYI, FFG just started uploading the individual matches onto youtube. You may want to add the links to the first post.

Featured match between Nathan and Richard:

Worlds Final match between Morgan and Paul:

This is depressing.

Never play a Kid on TV... DO. NOT. DO. IT. bad bad karma.

I think I played right next to you after this round :) . Two rules of warfare, never start a land war in Asia and never play a kid on TV... This is gospel.

MajorJuggler, All files are now on the dropbox along with Flight 1 and 2 standings along with a combined standings of the 244 players.

I put my event report on TC, MJ, in case you want to link to it.

Epic report, and now linked in the Battle Reports section. Thanks!

MJ I also put my report on TC if you want to link to it as well.

Thanks, done. :)

I could suggest a few more links here. Basically just comb through every general advice thread theorist has written on team covenant.

These stats make me sad.

I have all of the squads, and a mostly operational script running to parse it all, so I will post points by ships soon-ish.

I will spoil one thing: there is a 100% correlation with bringing Scimitar Squadron Pilots and wearing SteamPunk. :D

First blush, perhaps. But the fun is getting down to the nitty gritty.

I'm assuming the charts are going by numbers used, rather than points spent, correct? Otherwise Chardaan screws things up a bit.

Good job on the collection. I don't suppose we know what each players W/L record was? Because looking at all the 4-2s might change a few views about Worlds.
