Armada Second Annual Vassal World Cup

By BiggsIRL, in Star Wars: Armada

Ginkapo, you hilarious bastard. That I want to see.

I lol'd when I read that list.

Also I dunno what Doc Alex calls his trips dictor list but I'm calling it the Devil's Three-way.

I've been calling it tripledictors in my head, but The Devil's Three Way has a certain ring to it. Possibly Ben's Threeway...

I'm certainly intrigued to see how it does against CR90b spam and flotilla spam

That's an interesting list, I personally would be interested to see how it does (especially as a first player). I would expect it to be too low on the damage output, but I hope you'll prove me wrong.

PartyPotato vs Truthiness tentatively set for 9pm EST on Friday (pending any wife veto from my end).

Good luck to all participants!

Though I've arrived a little late to participate (in truth, I haven't looked at Vassal for 6 months), I will be spectating as many games as possible.

Keep me entertained please :P :)

6 months??? Has it been THAT long!?

Poor Aresius. Thought he could out activate his opponent with all those flotillas...

No idea what I do against 3 interdictors though.... need a memo from Clon! RAM THEM!

£&$#! $&$%# §*&(#

Mhd, they must have watched our last game and bumped me to JV. I wouldn't mind seeing you get run over by JJ.

Ginkapo and I are playing on Wednesday 11th Jan at GMT 19:30ish / CST 13:30ish (screaming baby permitting).

7 CR90b's versus 3 Interdictors, we shall probably never see its like again

Can we get a separate replay thread started and also try to get as many players to create logfiles so we can all watch the tournament?

I take it there will be an announcement on the pairings for the qualification tournament for next year shortly?

PT106 v Roquax

Wednesday at 8PM EDT

For anyone unsure how non-qualified players were assigned, they were slotted into empty slots semi randomly. This meant some folks who signed up earlier in the process had to be left out for the Fleet Patrol and some last minute signups got in to the PODs.

I am sorry that the structure of the tournament had a hard cap in number of participants. Nature of the beast. I hope the fleet patrol is a nice way to give you guys some tournament games (and reserve a slot for next year)

Had my last bone marrow biopsy and I am under the influence of dilaudid. So maybe best if I don't answer any more questions until I am settled at home.

Also, I'd like to remind people if they have issues that should warrant an FAQ, to let me know so I can get it up on the FAQ Document as soon as possible.

Green Knight vs. Lord Preyer (Pod 3):

He was 1st player and picked my Contested Outpost.

10-1 (MoV 388) to GK.

My Vader ISD-GSD-Raider-Goz-Screen vs his Motti ISD-Arq-Goz-Defender Swarm

We set up fairly traditionally across from one another, then I started farming for tokens and he moved to engage. Ciena Ree held off his Defenders for far longer than she had any right to, saving Demolisher from a possibly devastating bombing run. Which in turn allowed me to complete my pincer movement.

Despite the score it was actually quite tense util the very end of round 3, when my Demolisher finished off the Motti ISD. Had it lived with just 1 hull point there would have been a huge points swing, as it would have taken my Vader ISD down with it.

So again Armada turns out to be a game where nothing is decided until the last die has been rolled.

Lord Preyer was a skilled, and unfailingly polite and good-humored opponent. Hope to meet him again.

Guy's from my POD when can we play :)

Is Mattshadowlord permitted to run assault frigates or is his ban still in place?

As an honest question, I'd require to be pointed to where there was some announcement of a ban of Assault Frigates for the named player.

Is this feature implemented in the current release of Armada client or do we need to wait for the new one? :)

Will be implemented in the next build!

We already did :)

OK Pod 2, we need to talk. I feel like you're all taking some serious drugs. A Rieekan ram-swarm? A full Interdictor repair-fest? I hate the fact that as a member of pod 7 I will have to play one of you if I make it past pod play. Ugh...

I will offer you mercy. Concede now and you wont have to suffer.

I will offer you mercy. Concede now and you wont have to suffer.

Has that actually worked on anyone yet, Gink?
