JJs Juggernaut vs BrobaFett (1st Player)

Objective: Superior Positions

436-139 MoV 297 (9-2 win for myself)

Good game with lots of squadron action. In fact capital ships were only shooting at squadrons until midway through turn 3. In the end my HP was too much for the TIE bombers, and they succumbed one by one. I lost 2 x-wings and both my flotillas, but bagged the ISD, 2 Gozantis, and all opposing squadrons but 2 TIE bombers (at 1 and 2 HP). I had 3-4 at 1 HP as well, and only one squadron above 3 HP. Superior Positions points were 8-4 in my favor. Good game to BrobaFett. One little note. Jamming field was much more annoying than I thought it would be (this was my first game against it). Though I think it hurt BrobaFett as much as it hurt me.

Funny story... I was reading through this thread to catch up on several days' missed posts. Got to the bottom of the page before this and thought "hmm... Is it time to bring back the SW90 swarm?"

Then I saw this post.

Challenge accepted. I'll message you for scheduling.

I'm still lokking for games.

I'm GMT +2.

Caveat: I'd like to play with 2.5.0.

I need to get in a game or two with it before I announce it as 3.0.0 official.

After Monday I would welcome European evening challenges!

I have new fleet ideas to test that are a bit extreme for a proper tourney...

See if you can get 7pts of me
