Brief interview with event organizer Vince Kingston up on the Bambuser channel.

I checked out the channel but got this error for instance:

And the link in the OP doesn't work for me either.

Try again - we just checked the links from here, and they should be working.

Hmz, could be from my end, at work here, I get a security error.

I'll see if I can make some interviews and put them on YouTube.

What are you all interested in hearing about/seeing in the coverage? Interviews with regional champs? List/meta discussions? Live game feeds?

Let me know.

More videos up on the Bambuser - interview with 2x Danish Regionals champ Mads B. Petersen and one with demo of a lit up Falcon.

Thanks, Jace!

Link works great.

Thanks!

Looks like a good turnout.

Wow, congratulations! Half your top 16 sound like actual Star Wars pilots!

These are nationals?

These are nationals?

Yes. The Nordic countries have a joint National event. All the FFG games were played (smaller tournaments for Conquest, Star Wars LCG, Imperial Assault, Armada while X-Wing and NetRunner were the main event. X-Wing had 92 players I think).

Those who did not make the top 16 cut had an Escalation side event or a second Armada tournament while those of us that made the cut played the elimination rounds on Sunday.

What countries are included in this?

The Nordics include Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Iceland. It was held as an open tournament, and we had people from Poland, Germany and England (afaik), and of course the nordic countries.

Sad I missed this. Will some of the games and other stuff be up on Youtube?
