The Next Armada Event on Vassal

By MattShadowlord, in Star Wars: Armada

The Galactic Civil War is coming to a close this weekend, with just a few more battles to be fought. There's been some speculation about a new event starting soon, so if anyone has plans to organise something here a chance to step up!

(I can't run the next as I will be flying to Europe but would love to participate).

Tournaments, leagues, campaigns, teams, individual, national world cup team matches, round robins, 500 pts megabattles, wave 3 spoiled cards - it's all possible :D

Woooo!

Totally ready for the next one, that's for sure!

O man ... if I help organize tho ... umm ... then I might not get to play :-b

Do think something wave 3 / wave 4 inclusive would be fun but if we want wave 4, then that implies we wait for a few more weeks until more beans are spilled.

I think all of the TOs so far have played. It's not a big deal on vassal

Yeah, it's not like we're playing for money.

(memo to self: Add 'play for money' to the tournament idea list ^_^ )

I think I would like to see a Wave 3 Welcome Wagon tournament.

Perhaps with 4-5 Swiss rounds (the Swiss is much better at 4+ games) and a final cut (of 2, 4, 8 players?).

As a twist we might do 450 points or something?

Wave 3 Welcome Wagon sounds great.

BTW regarding point sizes, since a good amount of players only like to play regulation sized games, if you ever want to do something larger you might as well accept it will exclude some people and commit to it by going a nice chunky 5-600 :D

My stipulation is that I Demand The next Tournament to contain wave 3.

Do not Disappoint me...

As a side note I would also like wave 4 but... We probably don't have enough spoiled yet. Maybe we can allow all the currently spoiled cards? Such as madine, vet gunners etc...

Good point Matt!

So a regular, 400 pt Wave 3 tourney, with 4-5 rounds Swiss and a cut.

And then maybe a smaller tourney-thing running 600 pt fleets?

Probably not, no. It's only Madine, Vet Gunners and those 2 grav projectors (which can't be used). The rest is speculation. So unless more wave 4 stuff is revealed, we might as well wait.

I'll put my hand up as TO of the next tournament. :D

Reckon it would be good to poll community preferences on the format with a few options (swiss rounds, pod format, other alternatives). Is it possible to do a poll on this forum?

Having limited access to tabletop play, any vassal event is welcome to me.

You have my turbolasers!

And my Proton Torpedoes!

I think a setup similar to footballs champion's league format in Europe would be good, for an extended tourney.

32 player minimum tourney.

Split into 4 players in a mini league playing "home" & "away" games against each other player in their league. Then top 2 qualify into the knockout phase progressing onto the final.

And my Proton Torpedoes!

(Side note, there are like ZERO star wars weapons with 1 syllable names)

Heck yeah Doobs!

I vote Wave 3 welcome wagon. Four Swiss rounds with a cut. 400 points. I think that would be fantastic!

And My Missiles!

Dude, it was easy:

"And my X!" (wing) :P

Illegal stolen Vessels not worth my time :P

It would have been a good finish though lol

Can it be a solo event this time? I enjoy teams a lot, but would like a break from captaining this time.

I haven't had time for earlier tournaments because of the timing. I'd love to get into the Welcome Wagon tourney. I think setting up league play might be a great idea too.

I think that's my Ion Cannon

Can we have a rule that you are not allowed to bring tried and tested fleets to vassal tourneys?

No clonisher for Clon

No Bwings for truthiness

No triple vic for CNinj

And so on....

I'm in. I NEED to play more Armada and this really seems to be my only option.

I'm game for that. I have a Cracken list I want to try.

If it's a wave 3 event then I don't think that'd be an issue :P
