=THE NEXT ARMADA EVENT ON VASSAL= Wave 3/4 Preview Tournament (SIGN-UPS)

By doobleg, in Star Wars: Armada

This man is leaving for France on the 20th, and won't be back home for a loooong time. Well, several weeks, maybe four. So no tourney for me.

Ça me rend triste. :(

Aquitaine is lovely this time of year...if it only would stop raining!!!

I'll be back in circulation in mid/late July.

I also like to join the fray. Hopefully, I will be able to force some people to the healthy way of the Sith!

Come to the Dark Side. We have carrots...

Says the man who has yet to officially enter the tournament. ;)

Yeah, everyone knows there's no internet in France

And broccoli which DarthVeggie lets you choke on! (Who needs distance choking, if he has sithian broccoli!)

It's not that they don't have net...It's that they have do many other things...I mean, I'll be flying in to Bordeaux...I think there is wine there...

And baguette. And Yvette. And corset. You get the idea.

In. Ares on Vassal.

Hey, I'm leaving for Paris on the 18th! It sounds like you're going to be having a better time though. Have fun eating the corset, drinking the baguette, and unlacing the wine. Not sure what you do with Yvette.

;)

With Yvette?

Play Armada, of course! :D

Sign me up!

37 players so far! :D

I'd like to join too if that's alright please @Doobleg?

I'm interested in signing up so that I can practice in advance of GenCon. However, I'd need someone able to first teach me Vassal while working around my schedule. I work Weds-Sun 4pm to 1230am Pacific Standard Time. Monday and Tuesday preferred, overseas players welcome if able and interested in helping when I get off work (around 0800-0830 GMT).

Anyone interested?

Welcome aboard, guys! :D

If you know Armada, you will be able to use Vassal easily.

Truer words have never been spoken. The Armada interface on Vassal is incredible, and has one thing that the table-top doesn't: AN UNDO BUTTON! :lol:

I would love to help. If you know Armada, you will be able to use Vassal easily.

I know Armada. You will not have to look far to find my opinion on Vassal, and it is not "easy."

Hey, I'm leaving for Paris on the 3rd!

It sounds like we're half way to organising a Parisian Regionals :D

I don't think it's been clarified yet, but I'm assuming that the transport wouldn't benefit from Ackbar's extra dice because it has no side-guns to begin with. :)

thinking it over.. add me in, I should be able to play a pst evening game

And Daht makes 40! :D

No limit to numbers here, guys, so if you're on the fence just climb on over and join us. ;)

I would like to play. Have been waiting for the next opportunity. :)

That has been clarified actually. When a CR90 at long range is obstructed, or a CR90 B is at long range, you can't build an attack pool so you don't get to even declare an attack.

That's great! Thanks, dude! :D

When an obstruction, crit, etc would cause you to have no dice in your attack pool before the roll, you can not declare that attack.

Since Ackbar is an "Add" ability, you need to be able to modify the attack pool which means you need to be able to roll dice first.

Red bomber dice reroll, yes please! I have built a very similar list, and was looking to test it, but for the tourney I can't pull that trigger. Therefore I look forward to seeing it.
