Honolulu Regional

By TTC, in Star Wars: Armada

Would anyone here on the forums consider flying out to Hawaii if there was an Armada regional here? I know that the PNW (Portland-Seattle-Vancouver) has a solid player base and you can get good flights from that area to Hawaii. One of the local stores submitted a request to FFG and wants to gauge interest.

What could be better--Armada, tropical beaches, and mai tais?

That's is a hard sell, if Im going to Hawaii I going to be outside...

I played 40k outside last time I was there.

If you're going to Hawaii for Armada, you might as well stick around for a few days (or weeks) to enjoy the outside as well!

And if you make it, the first mai tai is on me.

Ask me again in two years and I'll almost certainly jump on it. This time, I must regretfully pass.

Who wouldn't want to go to Hawaii and make an adventure out of it.

Go to the beach, see Pearl Harbor, the volcano's, the beaches.

Did I mention the beaches. But I'm a bit biased, since I live there.

i would be very tempted to be honest but I dont think i could swing it.

Last time I drank Mai Tias, I blacked out. Hard to play Armada when I'm **** faced.

Hard and impossible are two different words for a reason

My bro Treb is out there now... if games could be held near the beach... keep me posted!

Indeed. I do enjoy drinking and then playing Vassal.

We have a time share in HI, and flights can be cheap depending on when and how far out I can reserve them. Wife might balk at the idea of me spending a day of our always-to-short Hawaii trip playing spaceships though....

That's why he's trying to get a regionals out there now...

Sequencing. Treat it like X-Wing (play, then attack/drink).

Don't treat it like Armada (attack/drink, then play).

You've got a free place to stay! And everything here is near the beach...

That's the spirit(s).

Man, that sounds like fun, but... I strongly doubt Mrs. Ard would go for that... :)

I play better drunk, I have data that shows this

No aloha for Hawaii here? The wintertime is a perfect time to get out of the cold, dreary PNW (I've lived there) and enjoy some sunshine and Armada...
