Vassal Armada Tournament - Signups / Results

By BiggsIRL, in Star Wars: Armada

Truthiness vs Trikkstar ended 128-65 in my favor. 7-3 result for the tourney and a 63 MOV. We played Advanced Gunnery with Trikkstar as first player. I've also linked the log file in my google drive below.

**EDIT** I've now realized that I didn't start the log file early enough to actually have anything on the board. Sorry about that. I'll get the next one right. Feel free to read the dialogue =)

Yes sorry was using the old rules, so listen to these guys

Being new to vassal. . . I think the maneuver tool is a bit annoying to work with. . .

Yes I am using 1.99. The issue I am having is that it is hard to get the entire tool moved at one time.

Doobleg vs Lyraeus is done, and the result:

Doobleg defeats Lyraeus

390 to 113

Lyraeus was the Second Player with Fire Lanes.

Lyraeus opened with a placement that would have him kiting around the objective tokens, while I set my Star Destroyers on an intercept course. I managed to *somehow* come out with more dice on the objective tokens in round 1, and then the start of round 2 saw the Demolisher destroy Lyraeus' corvette. From there the rebels were on the back foot, down an activation and facing two Star Destroyers head-on. Screed killed the enemy flagship, but then fell to the avenging fire of the remaining Assault Frigate, who was unable to maneuver away.

This was a good match, but Lyraeus and myself talked early of Armada being a game in which a player can see themselves losing in super-slow motion. At the top of the second turn after the corvette went down in flames, Lyraeus was living this scenario. It's hard to do this on the tables, and perhaps harder still on Vassal, where the absence of other players or the atmosphere of a gaming store can be keenly felt. I'd like to express my appreciation to Lyraeus for being a gracious and patient opponent, and I look forward to playing him again in the future. :)

Here's a link to the VLOG of our game.

Oooh, Vic & 3 Glads take down a squadron-heavy list. What was the objective, and who was 2nd player? :)

I was 1st. Objective was Fleet Ambush. Game took 3 Rounds. I got extremely lucky and rolled 4x crit+hit on one of my demolisher attacks and so his VSD got destroyed after 1st activation of round 3.

You are right. I think it was in an older version though it just may be how we have been doing it I guess.

In that tournament that I inherited the TO-ship, I just volunteered myself for the first-round bye, so that I could familiarize myself with the tournament rules. It was an executive decision.

In the future, if we have an odd number of players and I'm the TO, I'll just recuse myself.

I have Vassal Module V. 1.0 where can i get newer one... :huh:

Ehhh got wrecked by my carless flying:) the most fun part was when my opponent Rolled 5 crits from front of the Salvation... :D

I find that it can be extremely difficult to win going second. Especially if the opponent's fleet is able to handle even one of your objectives. This is only magnified if your opponent also has more activations.

Rekkon defeats Clontroper5.

300 - 0

Rekkon was the Second Player with Minefields.

Came down to a single hull Motti keeping a second Victory alive with two hull remaining. Screed then ran over an asteroid (they do concern him) and hit a mine, dropping his ride to a single hull which the third Victory casually removed.
