3 Hits better than me when I rolled 4 Reds, 5 Blacks.

Sounds like you were on Vassal.

I wish.

Getting a perfect double arc, close range, side to side against a Victory and an ISD... Then blank out on 9 dice against the ISD... ::sigh::

I mean, I scooted away at Speed 4 after doing some damage to the Victory, jut geeze...

Now I have rather enjoyed the level of rage quitting we get to see discussed on this forum. As its dissipated a bit with all the lovely new toys I thought I would keep my amusement level up by listing all the things that have fuelled rage quitting in this forum.

1) The core set is unbalanced and rebels can't win against a Vic

2) wave one is rubbish, I still can't beat the imps

3) ryhmer sucks, he's easy mod, imps are to good

4) what kind of arse ship is the raider, Imps have a rubbish selection of ships

5) trip tap demo and four raiders is madness. I can't play against this ****

6) wave two is taking to long....

7) it's been 2weeks since wave two and I've heard nothing about the next wave

8) that's not a wave its two little ships

9) now they are releasing wave after wave I can't afford this, pay to win or what...

10) they keep putting the good cards in ships I don't want..... FFG are only in it for the money

Well that's my top ten.... Any I missed

Not a bad little list, but, ahem...your grammar...(cough).

My ragequit moment was at work today. Almost...

It's getting harder NOT to do this.

There's not an SSD!

3 pages and I see no mention of it. Really people?!

I'm so old I saw SSD and thought Star Fleet Battles.

Another SFB player, huh?

I gave up on SFB a long time ago (still play the SFC computer game from time to time).

What empire do/did you play?

Klingons and Kzinti were my go-to fleets. Though flying drone ships was sometimes an exercise in advanced bookkeeping.

To this day I think it is the most well-made and balanced space game out there. But finding time and players is a lost cause.

Klingons were my fleet of choice.

I just loved the D7CT as it was so much better than the standard D7 or D7L you got to use in regular games.

I flew Rommies and Tholians.

I liked the tactical depth of SFB but it was a bit much to play casually and I could never find anyone willing to play, so I sold off what I had and retired from it. I still think that there's a lot of potential to "reinvent" it... My own "mod" of Armada for Star Trek that I've been rolling around in my head draws a lot from SFB.

But I digress.

Which is STILL better than my tourney this weekend in which I rolled four full MC30T broadsides (2 side arcs on 2 ships), with CF dial and token on both AND OE, and not a single APT crit. That's (4+4+3+3)*2 + 2 = 30 black die rolls with zero crits. 99.98% odds right there.

... And then his Luke turned around and rolled 4 in a row to sink an MC30 and Dodonna's CR90.

I managed to do that with a demo, four taps with cf dial and OE for 26 black rolls and not a single crit.....
