I'd be happy to play! I didn't make the autumn tourney though. Does that make me "not a loser?"

You are in!

All right, what's the list submission deadline?

I'll give everyone about 24 more hours to show interest. We've got 17 right now, and would love to have a round number! :)

If everyone that is in can send their lists in as soon as possible (Next few days) that would be great!

Still need these lists:

@Maturin

@JJs Juggernaut

@moodswing5537

@PartyPotato

@Thrindal

@doobleg

@SkyCake

@BrobaFett

@Doppelganger

@Visovics

I'm going to do an advertisement in the main forum and then in the next day or so when I get in all of the lists, we'll start. My current plan is to make sure Euro and N/A players get matched up in Round 1. Make sure you're in the right division on the first post of the thread.

Count me in!

Up to 19 with 11 lists in.

Juat sent mine. Looking forward to the chaos!

Mine's in too - I think....

list sent. Go off and make something of your self.....

:lol:

Last call for any new entrants!

We are in great shape so far with 16/19 lists in.

@JJs Juggernaut@PartyPotatoand @SkyCake we just need your lists.

If it remains at 19, I'll gladly just TO so we have an even 18.

(go ahead and twist arms today it'd be great to get 20 :) )

Oh I remember I remember!

The original idea in 40k was to trade armies with your first round opponent- so you play against your own list for the first game. Then each player sticks with that army going forward. This would ensure you don't play against your own army again in a Swiss matchup.

Thus the incentive to build an army that's good but not TOO good. :) List victories weren't tracked separately, it was just the list in your opponent's hands.

A bit different front what I originally proposed but it came to me in the shower, where I do my best thinking apparently.

The random list matchup we have here helps shake up the list performance so it's more independent of player skill, which is nice.

That sounds like a great idea, but I'm stoked about the list swapping actually. It'll probably be chaotic, but I think this little tourney would be the place to test it.

Heck yes admirals! We have our twenty! I'll be running the randomizer and mix it all up.

Okay everyone. I have the matchups, fleet-swaps and have verified all submitted fleets. As soon as Potato submits his we will roll.

Hurry up hurry up hurry up

First round Matchups:

CaribbeanNinja vs. @PartyPotato

@Maturin vs. @DoubleDown217

@JJs Juggernautvs. @Thrindal

@moodswing5537 vs. @Blingvarr

@comatose vs. @doobleg

@Dupy vs. @SkyCake

@BrobaFett vs. @Visovics

@Doppelganger vs @Irishmadcat

@Dorrin314 vs. @Dr alex

@GhostofNobodyInParticular vs @Tokra

Not as exciting as the fleets, but you can start scheduling. As soon as Potato submits I'll release them all into the wild.

We could always use Fab's "random" option for Potato's fleet if he takes too long... ;)

In the hopes that we get our fleets assigned before this evening, @Tokra and I have tentatively scheduled our game for 6 PM BST (5 PM GMT) today.

And if the fleets are available and you want more Armada action @Irishmadcat and I will have our match at 9pm BST on Thursday!

EDIT: Sorry got a bit overexited right there xD

Edited by Doppelganger

In a more helpful move. I can give you the missions for that beautifully crafted list I created.

Oh i already have

Edited by Ginkapo

I've PM'd you your lists.

Blingvarr is awaiting the highly anticipated @PartyPotatolist!

I'll publish all lists without objectives as soon as possible.

When I saw the original version I panicked and went did I get confused? :)
