11/19 Regionals

By shmitty, in Star Wars: Armada

Is anyone attending the regionals this weekend?

Gautier, MS

It would be great to have a volunteer that can grab the fleet lists and order of finish to contribute to the Regionals Fleet Data Project!

I'll be in Gautier and do what I can!

We start at 3PM...That'll be an experience all by itself! :)

Ill be in the Phoenix, I'll try to get some basic info or something from the TO. He's on the forums sometimes.

whoahhhhhh!! long night!

I'm curious how the metas will change between weekends. Will people be running counters to the winning lists? Will it be something else entirely?

And will some good player put Imps at the top of the results?

We have a regional in Toronto, ON that day too! We are planning on live streaming it at http://twitch.tv/401games and the Toronto meta has a lot of strong players so I'm hoping to have some exciting matches on camera.

I'll be in Gautier, though I'll leave things to CN if he'll handle it.

I'll be at the Melbourne, Florida one, I'll see what data I can grab. I think Crabbok is going to be there as well.

I'll also be there, we can all work together to get the info.

Perfect.

Might be a better turnout in melbourne than I thought

I will be in AZ, but jetting out quick once it's done to drive back to Vegas.. can try to get a list tho

Great!

The easiest thing seems to be asking the TO if you can have the copies of the lists they collect and an order of finish after the tourney is over.

I have the Florida results, I'll post them tonight or tommorow.

Really wish I could have made it. ><

We ended up with 13 peopple, but I think those who got the bye enjoyed it.

Took 2nd. Was a good day! Flew a bunch of Skurrg H6 Bombers... they are so cool but I think I'm officially "Over" the whole grit thing. I DO like their natural 3 speed much better than the B-Wings though.

Got some new sparkly dice!

We had 12 in Gautier. CN got the lists from the TO at the end. Wte only had one Imperial list. Even some regular Imperial players were taking Rebel lists. Almost no one local attended the event. Two of us drove over from Texas. Georgia, Florida and Alabama were represented. Competition was fierce. I'm pretty beat, so I'll give the report later. Everyone was really friendly, a testament to how great the Star Wars Armada community is.

Had 10 in Az. I forgot to get lists but I can buzz Imperial Outpost in glendale AZ for them probably. They were super generous and it was a great time.

I did bad, being in last place going into round 3, but getting a big rd 3 win to sneak in to 7th.

Played 4x cr90 (trc/engine tech) cracken list with a bunch of rouge fighters.

Tired now with no notes, but RD faced a hard counter list to mine (high activation demolisher + fireball list), and lost 9-2.. I was matched up with another player with a favorable list for me to play, but 2 Cali players who play all the time were matched up so we switched opponents, and when I saw my new opponent's list said a little "aw ****" in my head but had a fun game. I evaporated his flotillas but couldn't evade both the demolisher and fireball enough to keep pace, and he played well with the fighters keeping mine busy.. he got all 4 of my corvs for a tabling.

RD 2 faced an interdictor, demo, insidious and anti-fighter fighter list, and got silly and greedy with one good shot on the interdictor I had a chance to maybe kill it if my other ships did real well on their next shots, so didn't keep the distance I should have from the gladiators gambling on a quick interdictor kill... and it didn't happen, and I got wrecked 10-1.. great game still, playing precision strike and got token farmed some, but he needed to score high and it stayed fun.. which was good because RD3 I went from token farming nail to token farming hammer..

RD 3 faced a balanced pickle/whale/g75 list with a big swarm of x,a,b wings and Jan... got superior positions and killed everything on the field but the 80, and farmed more rear shot tokens than the 80 was worth, only losing 2 yt2400's... the opponent was great at staying fun, I could have felt like a jerk rear-arc farming the 80 if it wasn't bottom tourney table and he understood and rolled with it good naturedly. I ended up with 16 victory tokens and won 10-1

Had a great time, still managed to sneak in top 8. Hope to do better in February but nice to have the alt-dice pressure off.

Best of all, I got to score Gouged Eye and Reikland Reaver flags for Blood Bowl there too! Huge thanks to Imperial Outpost!

I have the Phoenix lists. I'll scan them tomorrow at work.

Imperial Outpost puts on a great tournament with tons of additional prize support. I managed to win and will do an AAR later this week. We had several people drive in so it was nice to see people from out of state. It's a shame we didn't get more locals but we had a good time.
