The potato you took that pic on appears to be out of focus
Sooooo.... Any news about the results?
Sw armada France has been posting the matchups on fb.
Gink vs przemy top table, Lawrence table 4, aresius table 6, Irish is flying high on table 9. Rikki. And Ben tables 14/15. After getting tabled in round 3 I slipped from table 16, right down to 28, but just got a 7/4 so im on 20 points going to the last round. Hope that helps!
Not sure if I'm more proud of my score, or the fact I'm still standing after half a litre of vodka. ?

Thanks for the updates! Is this the draw for round 5?
I played against Przemyslaw (and lost 5-6) last weekend at the Aldershot tournament, great to see him on top table!
Round five przemy and aresius top table, gink on two, I believe he won big and will be confirmed top 4, Lawrence on 3, Ben jumps to table eight, Irish table eleven. Tokra table 19, looks like he's had a rough time in this one. I won my last game 6-5 for a total of 26. Will confirm top four and final standing in 30mins or so

Sloane phantoms are OP.
though if you’d come up against rieekan it would be different.

Not proper rieekan.
If you were Top 12 hit me with that list!

I guess I need a definition of "proper" Rieekan.

It followed a goalpost shift, so it’s a two-fer ?
Gz to all players. Five rounds with organizational delays is a tough proposition. All of you can be proud to have been there.
Im excited for the cut today. Was there a stream confirmed in the end?
All the pairings I could find for Euros, rounds 2 to 5. Thanks to the France SW Armada FB site.
Did anyone get the final rankings?

They requested nobody photograph the final rankings. Not sure if they plan to release them at a later date themselves.
It was a good event and with some fantastic players. I was quite surprised by the sheer number of squadronless fleets though (Or low squad count).
Just to clarify that we were unable to post final standings due to data protection essentially.
Sorry for typos, sending this from my mobile.
5 rounds in a single day was crazy... compared to last years 3+4 rounds in two days especially. I hope next year there wont be a limit on tickets and we will have 2 days with the top cut playing on day 3.
See my list on the bottom
Round 1
Played agains motti bt/avenger with raiders, gozanties, valen/ciena(he ended 11th). His avenger was 1mm short from my warlords black range, so he wanted me to make the final step to my doom. Unfortunatelly avenger died being the most wanted ship before it could kill warlord. Some some mop up followed, 10-1.
Round 2
Rieekan aces(yavaris, pelta, 2 transpots, hammerhead). Big squadron clash. He focused down my bombers with insane 4-3 damage rolls. In retaliation all my warships took out most of his squads, doing 5 damage to gold and dagger squad from a single ship activation is priceles(i was pryceless). Warlord gave in finally. But managed to land a crit on yavaris and its speed was reduced to zero. Yet, first shots at her did no damage, I needed 3 damage using 2 red dice. She went down. But again mix of poor and good luck. My rolls were awful overall, tons of double accs/acc+blanks... The game ended 6-5 to him.
Round 3.
Radus dual big ships(lib and ord cruiser, corvette, 2 transports), no squads. Glad was on duty to to chase down the corvette/force a premature drop to avoid any harassment in my back. My opponent was well aware the capabilities of the demo supported by jonus, so he dropped his libery, raddus wasnt really utilised. Then it was down to his 2 big ships vs warlord-pursuant-gozanti-bombers, as demo and the corvette were bit far. As he moved his corvette to safety, I could send jonus to a transport then demolished it. Ord cruiser speeded up to meet warlord at the contested outpost. Following turns thrawn was forced into an early retirement thanks to the liberty, while despite jonus returned to lend a hand against the ord cruiser, all my combined forces couldnt deal with it in two turns. The bomber pilots were executed/sent to kessel. Warlord went down too, losing 7-4.
Round 4.
Dodonnas B-aceholes(transport, pelta, command mc80, 4 bwings, ten numb, nora, 2 hwk-s, gold squadron) Knowing i needed big win, i had to play much riskier than i normally would. His squads met my bombers, but ignored them and went for warlord. Most of his squads died in 2 turns, only a bwing managed to survive the game. Warlord went down to the combined efforts of bombers and the mc80, while a risky manuever left the demolisher in the side arc of mc80(wanted to stay 'safe'in its back despite landing on a rock, to hurt it next round) and was destroyed. Trawn had the bombers finish the mc80, but the gozanti died in the process. Sadly I couldnt score any victory tokens on precision strike(well done bombers again), but my opponent scored 90. So he won 7-4 after all.
Round 5
Another raddus, but this time with a squadron, Sara(lib, ord cruiser,corvette, tranports)! Genuinly suggested him to put her in the corner... but the girls never listen. Spread my bombers before my ships and moved up demo to threathen the flagship. It dropped before pursuant. Demo sent jonus to the ord cruiser to lend a hand to the boss, then unleashed its load to its side, moved and shot the same side. In the return fire demo went down(racks, cf, etc), but pursuant shrugged of the attack of the cruiser. Bombers finished it off, warlord could turn its focus on the liberty. Shot it, moved in to prevent it from moving and double arcing it. Died horribly next turn to bombers and a 13 dmg shot for the warlord(was braced down to 7). The poor corvette just returned to witness the fall of liberty, next turn she followed. 10-1.
33 points all together, 21st place.
Overall thoughts:
I didnt want to take any of the current 'hotness' like raddus, rieekan, sloanne, dual isd, etc, but something different/new that can deal with multiple threaths. I think I managed to fulfill this, now I have a year to practice rolling and do a little more tinkering with the list(hondo and pursuant can go, sfo on demo would be usefull).
And finally my list:
Quasar Fire II-class Cruiser-Carrier (61 + 43)
+ Grand Admiral Thrawn (32)
+ Captain Brunson (5)
+ Ruthless Strategists (4)
+ Pursuant (2)
Victory I-class Star Destroyer (73 + 26)
+ Agent Kallus (3)
+ Ordnance Experts (4)
+ Ordnance Pods (3)
+ H9 Turbolasers (8)
+ Warlord (8)
Gladiator II-class Star Destroyer (62 + 17)
+ Ruthless Strategists (4)
+ External Racks (3)
+ Demolisher (10)
Gozanti-class Cruisers (23 + 10)
+ Hondo Ohnaka (2)
+ Bomber Command Center (8)
Captain Jonus (16)
Mauler Mithel (15)
6 x Tie Bomber Squadron (6 x 9)

That’s... a bit annoying.
