Hey everyone! Our local store is located in Temecula, CA and our squadron is called Team Mech Killer's, we just started a YouTube channel to record local games from our store tournaments. We have two videos up so far, one is a casual game and the other is Round 1 in our January tournament which features two very interesting lists! Here is the List Juggler Link . We will have the next three rounds up in the following weeks. If you have any tips or comments please let us know! We are new to all of this so we'll take any advice we can get!

Always good to see more teams out there!

Nice - quick question on your overlays - are you using a font to display those on the overlay?

I believe Brian creates the overlay in Publisher and then puts it in his editing program. All the shield tokens and hull are probably just pictures he got online.

We havent quite figured out the best the best way to do it all yet, but slowly we're learning.

Cheers - looking back at the question, I realised I wasn't very clear in what exactly I was asking about.

But yes - it was the Shield/Hull images I was wondering about. I've been toying with a similar idea, but besides adding a source for each shield/hull icon, I'm struggling to see how I could do it.

Possibly creating a font that uses Shield / Hull imagery in place of the "S" and "H"

Hey @Tbetts94 , when do you guys meet? I looked at the Facebook page and website, but couldn't find it. Thinking about visiting your shop for game nights every now and then.
Good videos, by the way. Looking forward to more of them!

So our "dedicated" days are Sunday's, but the store has kinda taken over that day for other things now. Usually we just post on SCGC X-Wing Minis on Facebook and ask if anyone is up for a game. Thanks! We should be back on track getting the videos out again pretty soon. We record audio on Tuesdays, but Valentines Day and Brian being out of town the next week kinda stalled them.

We should try and record a Mario Kart game soon. I'll talk to Brian.

That'd be cool!

TR8R tournament Round 1 is up!

lovely stuff, thank you for sharing!

Round 2 of the TR8R Tournament is up!

Final round for the TR8R Tournament is up!

*Brian did the overlay at like midnight and he spelled Miranda wrong. We know, just have a backload of the other videos he's gotta push out soon too. Also, in the show description he has a GoFundMe link. It will really help to get some new equipment?

We're looking for Easter Eggs at this tournament!

Round 3!

We now have a Go Fund Me, thank you to Sam and @Merman !! Brian will be getting a Go Pro with the money for a dice cam. We're hoping to live stream our store champ on June 24th, we just need a video captured card. Chances are slim, but we're gonna try!

We will have to start saying before each match, "don't cheat" which is sad.

I'm gonna start editing them instead of Brian with his new adult responsibilities coming up. Store Champs is on the 24th at SoCal Games & Comics, so I'll try to knock those ones out fast.

Store Champ videos are up!
