Update: Actually decided to get it up and running now and then add attachments + command cards later (before store championship season at the very latest, but likely before worlds). You should now be able to add Tournaments and results manually through the forms on the site. Let me know if you have any issues, appreciate if you can enter any results you have.
Nationals Results 2015
Do you only want SC and higher tournaments or also GNK Tournaments?
All tournaments are valid, would like as much data as possible.
Everything works
though I will add the rest of what I can remember tomorrow when I have an pc and not a smartphone.
Any other recent results?

I played Karol, the only other RGC player on the day, in Top 4, on the Most Dangerous Game mission. Usurprisingly, both Champions were our bounty hunters, so the match was pretty much decided by which of them got the jump on the other first. In the first round I baited Karol with a Royal Guard moving to the southern terminal, whom he promptly killed with his regular Royal Guards, but that resulted in him having to split his forces - the Elite Guards and the Champion went around the northrn corner. I managed to place my remaining Royal Guards and OffOrder the Champion engaging his Elite Guards, which blocked the corridor in a huge mosh pit just outside the door. I've managed to position in a way that meant his Champion didn't have enough movement to reach my Champion. I managed to get back-to-back activations with my RGC, running in against his RGC, triggering Brutality against his Champion and a stray officer, and then doing a Flurry of Blades against his RGC, which brought him to 3-4HP AFAIR. He responded by playing Flurry himself, but I Bodyguarded the first attack into a wounded Royal Guard, which killed him and allowed me to Executor his RGC before the other two attacks resolved. That meant a total of 36 pints for me by that point so I just mopped up the second Officer and cashed in the last two points at the end of the round.
I played Kamil Bajor in the final, on the Mind of it's Own mission. I deployed aggresively to the north, but then feinted by OffOrdering a Royal Guard round south to the terminal there. Kamil opened the door and tried fragging him with his regular Sabs, but failed to finish him off. OffOrders allowed me to win the positional war by setting up the RGC by the northern terminal and boxing the Rebels in by the door with both my Royal Guard groups. I've managed to frag Threepio pretty early on which was a big help with getting damage through later. For his last move of the first round, Kamil moved Luke into the melee, in a way that blocked my RGC from engaging his forces by the door. But since I still had an Officer and the RGC for my last two activations, I ran around the other side of his deployment zone and went on a beastly rampage. I fragged an entire Elite Sab group with Brutality, then Flurried beginning of second round to kill Luke. I think I then had Executor trigger to kill another Sab, and then I fragged Gideon with Parting Blow. It was just mop up from there.
At this point I owe it to Kamil to point out that virtually all of my RGC attack rolls in the final game were above average. The Champion, though an awesome piece that I adore (and consider the best piece in the entire game alongside the Officer) and a beast in combat, in my experience does not usually frag 6-health Elite Sabs in one go - and that was happening regularly in the final match of the day.
Also, I'd like to point out that Piotr, who lost to Kamil the the Top 4 match, actually beat me in the swiss rounds. As a matter of fact, Piotr is a local player who I regularly play against at local tournaments, and I have literally never won against him (though on thue day I got closest I ever was, it was 29-28 in VPs when time was called!). I feel that had I been matched up against him in the Top 4 the outcome of the tournament might have been very different. Especially since, with all resepct to Kamil, I consider Jyn to be a MUCH more threatening counter to my list than a group of regular Saboteurs, what with the ability to easily stunlock the RGC on my own turn.
unbelievable that a RGC list wins...still grats on your win......but only because no 4/4 in your meta
...next year I will be there (could just not make the trip twice to warsaw in that short time) with x-wing nationals attending
where you at the GNK tournament on sunday after xwing national?
Thanks God there are still some countries without players with 4x4 lists. That is boring as hell.

No, I did not attend the X-Wing national or any auxillary events.
I think you are underestimating the Royal Guard Champion. He's the fastest and most mobile piece in the game, with some clever positioning and command card action he's capable of landing five 3-dice attacks with solid surges in one turn, he can soak up a reasonable amount of fire thanks to a two dice defense pool, he has two of the three (or four, depending on your count) best command cards traits currently in the game and he has perfect card, trait and ability synergy with regular Royal Guards. You might be surprised he's winning games here, but I'm likewise surprised to see how underplayed he is in US and western EU tournaments. I have played variants of the above RGC list ever since the pack first came out. He absolutely dominated season 1 missions thanks to his unmatched mobility. On season 2 maps the focus has moved slightly to direct confrontation, which he does equally well. His high speed and Officer support allow him to dictate the engagements and lop the head off of the exact piece you want dead at the moment to foil you opponent's plan, no matter where he tries to hide. And then there's the recent addition of Rule by Fear. If you Rule by Fear into Planning, which isn't that unreasonable to expect, you will be cycling through almost half of your deck beginning of turn 1, fishing out Flurry, Pummels, Bodyguards and/or Parting Blows. Those cards turn him into a literal buzzsaw.
He's not ideal and unstoppable of course. Like all strong and expensive melee figures, he's the prime target for getting stunlocked, which makes Rebel Saboteur lists problematic and Jyn my priority target #1 every game. But truth to be told, it's not like any other RG-based list (including a pure 4x4) has it easy with Saboteur lists.

thx for the info granorco
@donsilvarro if you have many rebel blast and 4/4 lists in your meta, RGC will not be fun...that is the reason few people play him in our meta...I am always happy if I play against him cause i just stunned the living daylights out of him and stay not adjacent..then he is doing nothing....
