Had a great time at Fair Game (the usual Armada hangout for me and @geek19 and our crew on Thursdays). 11 people showed up, we had 5 games of Armada going. It's becoming a pretty busy evening for us as our community grows. We're doing a casual league with some silly achievements and people are enjoying the occasional 500 point game for funsies, as we're taking a brief break between tournaments before we start getting into store championships mode.

We even had a nice chat about Worlds and what we all thought and our guesses on if FFG would issue errata and if so about what and how. It was polite and nobody got upset (in short, it wasn't the internet). It was rather pleasant, actually. Things are going well out here in the west Chicago burbs.

Just finished up a game with @SgtDurandal

Amada days are good days.. we're really working on having good attitudes as we get ready for a store championship.. win or lose!

We had 5 games played last night at Gigabites through out the Evening a good night for Armada!

We had 4 tables of Armada last night at our casual night in Champaign, IL. We even bumped some Magic players to another table. We have two campaigns of Corellian Conflict running with one about to finish. I'm organizing a tournament in a little more than a week, and we actually have to cap the size because of other events running that day. We had some discussion of Worlds and Rieekan, and people are eager to see what Wave 6 does to the meta. I played a crazy MC80 Battle Cruiser, Neb B Escort with Salvation, Neb B Escort, and Madine on a GR75 plus 3 Lancers as a sort of thing to try against Rieekan aces. All 3 of the main ships have Engine Techs, and even the Battle Cruiser was jumping over smaller ships.

Back to back days of Armada. My buddy @Chuntsingercame home from school today And we were able to play a really fun game. If my red dice weren't colder than Hoth, I would have won. I rolled 5 red dice and 1 blue on my last turn and had 1 accuracy and 1 hit. Put that together with the 4 red I rolled earlier in the game that were all blank and I had one awful game if dice. Never the less, a bad game of Armada is better then no game of Armada.

I find your lack of victor disturbing. The thing that @mcworrell fails to mention is that after several defeats, I was victorious. None the less, an unexpected game with an old friend can't be beat.

I had fun today, thinking about playing my first game on Tuesday against another Armada newb.

My package is due tomorrow:

Thanks! Much appreciated. @BiggsIRL

Some vassal fun:

Grav shift reroute...

@Kikaze ran his Avenger on ONE rock...the next round it hit TWO rocks...the round after it hit TWO rocks again

I ran this list http://armadawarlords.hivelabs.solutions/print_text_export.php?token=111207

against 2 VSDs, Two Gozanti and a Rhymer ball. Nuked a VSD. Only Avenger and the Arquitens along with aces survived. 7-4 in my favor. It was my most wanted.

@Visovics and I are playing a highly segmented 1,000 pt vassal game.

Getting to play crazy games like that with people halfway across the world is how I have fun with Armada!

Dang that sounds awesome. . . if you happen to like doing it, and want to do it again, could you send me a PM? I'd love to do something like that!

You got a deal! Soon as this one wraps, I can almost guarentee I will be down. So far this one has been a blast playing even going only a turn a day just at convenience pace.

Great!

Been having a great time crushing fleets with my jerjinator ISD and GSD build.

Yay fun!

Come on. More people must be having fun by now?

Won a game using the Interdictor yesterday. Didn't lose a single ship or squadron and had 3 TIEs and Demolisher limp away with only 1 hull point left.
