Yeah I know armada. Been playing for a while and been to some regionals and tournaments.

If you know the game, learning Vassal is a matter of figuring out how the module has adapted the different rules and mechanics inside the Vassal engine. I would suggest trying a couple games and having a look @Green Knight 's YouTube channel to get a quick rundown on how it all works.

@themightyhedgehog you might have to hit the Fleet Patrol this time around, but I'd be more than happy to run you through the basics before they start.

That would be very helpful. I have it all downloaded and was playing with it for a little while.

I missed posting that the cutoff has past, which it did about 6 hours ago.

Not sure if @Lord Preyer officially made it under the gun, but I am going to give you the benefit of the doubt. @Mig1921 , you did not, but I will let you into the fleet patrol as a consolation prize.

Until I get home from the overtime shift I was called in to fill... Get your lists in!

Lists are due on the 16th, no?

Lists, Biggs?

Was under the impression that you first do at least the draw, so all of the at larges' know if they are in or out, and then lists are sent?

Nope.

If you don't submit a list you are disqualified, so that has the potential to open up slots in the World Cup tournament. Lists are due GMT Tuesday, then by end of day Wednesday I will have revealed the PODs, drawn from those who actually submitted a list.

The very, very beginning of the 16th, GMT. So super early for Europe, or late in the day on the 15th for the USA. Or like... mid-morning on the 16th for the Aussies.

Thanks Biggs - I submitted about 8mins before midnight GMT after too much umming and awwing!

Will submit my list more promptly!

Here goes nothing...

Submitted (and it's like nothing after wave four ever happened!)

That's the spirit.

Btw not too long ago I made a retro Screed fleet with 2 GSDs, some raiders and gozanti. It was surprisingly effective; IO+ACM rips stuff apart, even in wave 6-7 :D

Actually - a certain googly-eyed admiral is making an appearance, he just clearly likes to keep his ships old-skool (yes - I spelled it with a K)!

I can't remember if I submitted my list. . . is there some way somebody could check, or should I resubmit it?

And mine is in.....

Submitted and currently tied for First (and Last).

List submitted.

With the objective of forcibly converting heretics to the Church of Garm.
