GreenSquad vs Ginkapo ends in a concede with only Greensquads flagship Jainas Light alive for him, and my entire fleet alive. 10-1

My updated Konstantine bombers vs a 5 Neb +Corvette Leia gunline.

We rolled for iniative which I won, so I took first player and his Superior Positions mission. During the game I proceeded to take out 1 neb at a time without shooting them in the rear once... His Nebs piled a lot of damage onto the ISD, but with RBD it managed to tank for quite a while, holding out to activate last in the third turn and obliterate two nebs at close range. With 3 hull remaining and repair commands till kingdom come it wasnt going down with all the nebs gone.

Konstantine did sooooo much this game....... (I jest, of course he didnt)

I am not so sure. Had you killed the 80, you could have focused a turn earlier on Yavaris, and might have taken it down, which in turn may have saved the ISD. Poor Raiders though. 4 of them, and only 1 shot was ever fired.

Speaking of which, I forgot to provide the score. I killed everything but Ciena for 383. You killed the 80 with Dodonna, FCT, FC, ECM and BC for 143. Thus we had an MoV of 240 or a 9-2.

Tabling is automatic 400, even if there are still squads

Also, I’d have had to make a huge turn around for Yavaris, so I’d still only get side shots I think

Maybe, but remember when you shot the flotilla? Had you shot Yavaris, one damage would have gotten through, and I cannot redirect. You then could have spent the next two turns lobbing 3 dice each time into that unprotected side at medium range.

Undeadguy beats @Mormal

460 to 92.

@Ginkapo and I played a qualifier game this afternoon (my time - I greatly appreciate his patience even though it was getting pretty late where he was). His Motti Kuat/Quasar II/Bomber swarm played my Home One/Salvation/Jaina's fleet on my Most Wanted. The Kuat and my Comms Net flotilla were the objective ships.

It was feast or famine for his bombers - he either rolled blanks or hit/crits. My dice rolled pretty hot - managed to score 10 on a Salvation shot (Spinals and MW) and 9 + Acc on a side arc from the H1 later on. RBD and a lucky ET on the station managed to just barely keep H1 alive, and I was able to eliminate the rest of his ships.

10-1 to me, but it really was a very close game.

Last night @comatose and I agreed in advance to count our perdants game, see the Perdants thread for a better write up but it was a 6-5 to me

You all said that Chiraneua was not needed. You all said Kallus would be a good addition.

You are all wrong. I blame you all

Upon rereading, 'everyone' was in fact just @Undeadguy .

I think the others who are saying I need Tempest may be half right. Gamma would be useful as non heavy.

I was still probably drunk.....

.. "Half Right" is more right than I can usually claim to be!

I don't think Chiraneua is not needed, but I also don't like duplicate effects. Intel and Chiraneua is redundant, and IMO, is inefficient, even if it can be effective.

@BrobaFett and I are about to start an impromptu qualifier game.

@GhostofNobodyInParticular and Brobafett wrap with a 389 MOV 10-1 win for myself.

GNIP was as always a great opponent, but with first player my Demolisher was always able to stay just one step ahead of his forces.

'Twas a good and fun game, and I am most thankful to Broba for deigning to table me.

Here is the logfile for those who are interested.

Also, I have now managed to qualify, this being my 6th game, with 5 tabling loses and 1 tabling victory! What extremes eh? The only time that wasn't a 100% tabling was GK's Bounty Battle, where a lone flotilla limped away on 1 hull I think.

I think I also qualify with the mulligan trophy.

2 more spots taken!

Thrindal claim's " Bounty #3: @Roquax - Wanted for Terrorism and Piracy".

I played his Mixed Sato Fleet with Quasar/Pheonix Home mashup with a fleet of Y-Wings.

My fleet consisted of a Vader ISD 2 Avenger and 2 Raiders running Overload Pulse and assorted Squads.

The match ended 400 - 256 (initially didn't count tokens so Roquax had a higher score than I first calculated). We basically started bunched in the middle of the board and slowly inched towards each other. I believe he was speed 1 the whole way where I started speed 2 and slowed down as range closed. His Squads proved difficult to kill although my squads kept them tied up for a turn or two and my ships laid a lot of flak for a turn until ships were in closer range. Overload Pulse wasn't quite as effective as I had hoped but it was key in killing Salvation. This was my first time playing Vader in a long time and I didn't use him on the Raider Blue Dice like I should have. That said Vader was a champ on the ISD. Killing Salvation and Yavaris in one turn and the Pheonix Quasar and the Bomber Command Center floatilla the next. Damage was done as neither Raider survived long (I should have slowed them a turn earlier). Thanks to lots of Repair commands Avenger was able to survive just long enough to take out the ships without worrying about the Y-Wing nats swarming about. Other than Avenger only Bossk survived from my fleet.

Great Game Roquax, I was just looking for a game and I got lucky and came away with a Bounty. I look forward to playing again soon!

Comatose v DoubleDown ends in a 197-293 (7-4) for DoubleDown. The dice gods were forever in my favor as Comatose's bomber command center provided no help the entire match. Bad rolls for Comatose coupled with perfect rolls for Me gave Me the win.

Thank you for a good match as always.

Ard vs Greg is 10-1 to me, 382 MoV.

That pimped out Liberty is terrifying. An XI7/MK/EA/Ackbar/GT Liberty just has no good approach vectors. I'm also seriously considering the value of Walex on there. Not sure how much value he gives in other matchups, but he did some serious work in mitigating my MC30 fire. Between Walex and the healbot Pelta, that **** Liberty ate something like 8 or 9 close-range MC30 shots, it was just ridiculous.

The game was really tight all the way up to the opening of round 4. First activation, the Landmothmonitionstrosity did what it do: from full shields but at only 2 hull, it Lando'd a full-on MK/XI7 Liberty front arc at close range to 5 damage, Admo'd off another, and redirected one off with none going through to the hull. Then my forking MC30 in the backfield got just the rolls I needed to pop both Greg's Salvation and his A-wing-pushing flotilla out the side arcs, cutting his activations in half and wiping out both of his follow-ups that could've helped finish off the wounded Mothma. Those two activations really swung the game, and it was all downhill from there.

Good game to Greg!

My reading comprehension is bad and I should feel bad.

@Podracer beats @Deadshane 250 -172 In a Vodka vs rum all you can drink classic.

Both players chugging early, I manage to get the edge in the squad fight after 3 turns. Shane begins smashing through my raider and gozantis.

After a tactical chunder at the start of the fourth, i secure enough superior position tokens with my remaining bombers and quasar to steal the win. Ugh, i feel rough now...

GG Deadshane... gg. That man can hold his liquor.

Finishing off a game vs @Dr alex this week also. He was drunk i was sober. Hes winning. Always drink when flying seems to be the moral of the story!!

Game vs @BrobaFett aready posted. I have no idea if broba was drinking but he won so I assume he was!

Excuse me whilst i pass out....

@BiggsIRL is there an updated qualification list?

I know we had 18 spots initially, and about 30 gunning to qualify. Would be good to see how many spots remain for people who have yet to book their ticket.

Post updated to this point.

Ard vs @comatose comes to a shocking end as a last-shot-of-the-game Y-wing drops a hit/crit + Dodonna Structural Damage into Coma's beleaguered Paragon to swing the 6-5 from his favor to mine.

Always fun to play @comatose , thanks for the great game man!

Log here.

If @thecactusman17 had already qualified from the POD1 Spirit of Comp. Award, would he take up a spot with his bounty?
