Great Regional at Epic Loot in Ohio!

By NorseJedi, in X-Wing Battle Reports

Just wanted to give kudos to Epic Loot near Dayton OH for a great regional tournament yesterday. I had a blast and some great dogfights - probably the most memorable was a tie when my three interceptors faced seven academy ties and dark curse and neither one of us shot down a ship over 75 minutes! Don't tell me the odds on that! ;-)

I'm sure the top eight will be posting soon. Wasn't able to stay for the end but it looked like a good mix of Falcons, Decimators and IG88.

I was there as well and can attest to the greatness that is Epic Loot. Great venue, awesome door prizes, and an all around good atmosphere. Even though I ended the day with 2 wins to 3 losses, I had a great time.

I still can't get over the Tie....tie.

My buddy and i tried to go, but registration was already filled up. Definately bummed we couldnt show.

How many people was the event limited to?

Event was limited to 64, and 61 showed. Norse - don't suppose you played against a Corran / Tycho where your RGP just WOULDN"T die?

Oh yes I did! :-) 25 minutes of green dice holding out for a few more tournament points - or at least I tried! Came in tied for 16th. Congrats on almost hitting the top 8 to you. Well deserved. Have to say that our match was only surpassed by my match against the never dying 8 TIE swarm - legenday full 75 minutes with no kills on either side. I had to nearly fly off the board a few time to avoid that swarm!

You got unlucky that the RGP was greedy and wouldn't share those greens with Fel and Jax. Plus, both of those guys died to a hit/crit, which is also unlucky. I've never seen a single ship survive so many 3 <boom> hits before though. Crazy! I hope that means that the rest of your games weren't completely dice screwed because you had all the good greens on that guy.

It was a terrific event. Incredibly nice people in a great store!
