Martinsburg Regionals

By Formynder4, in Star Wars: Armada Battle Reports

I've been flying a Madine Liberty/Admonition list pretty much since Wave 4 was released, and this regional was the last time I used it before retiring it.

I used my bye the first round.

Second round was against a newer player (sorry, didn't catch your name). It ended up being a 7-4 my way only due to a couple of mistakes and my Admonition rolling all of 5 damage after double arcing his Admo.

Third round was against @duck_bird and was the most fun game of the day. She chose my PIC and we had a rather standard deployment:

Round 2:

PCbAq14.jpg I started the round with a PIC shot on her ISD's bow for 3 damage and she chose to spend her contain.

Round 3: This is where things got hilarious. It starts with her Demolisher landing an APT crit on my Endeavor:
CYrMRlU.jpg Between that and the bow shot Endeavor ended up with 1 hp. She tried to ram him to finish it but couldn't get the angle right with Admo sitting off to the side and ended up landing on Admo instead. I activated Endeavor repaired two of the damage cards (including the munitions crit that requires discarding a die with each attack), blasted the ever living daylights out of a Raider that was between me and the station, put a good chunk of damage into her ISD, and then landed on the station and engine teched removing 2 more damage. I also happened to land in the side arc of the ISD. 4tXsKgE.jpg Admonition then also landed on the station and removed the single damage, as well as obstructing any shots from the ISD. The last PIC shot and Admo killed the ISD, but I was out of the fight at wrong angles after that. Ended up with a 7-4 win.

Round 4: Against Jonathan Kwak

This match wasn't all that fun as we had practiced against each other a couple of times prior. I chose his fighter ambush and managed to give up only 2 tokens. I quickly lost my fighter CAP but mostly forced his squadrons back after some solid flack. I misdeployed Admonition and it took forever to get into the fight, killing only a single TIE. It ended up being a 4-7 loss for me, and dropped me down to 12th.

But now that I'm done, I'm really looking forward to moving back to Imps and a more durable build. This fleet is fun, but rather fragile/brittle. I'm ready for some solid brawler/bully lists now.

Great match! I had a lot of fun. Well played!

Two very similar lists (big hitter, little hitter, and friends) and what looks like a tense game.

Thanks for sharing the pics and the AAR.
