An Imperial Question (Level pale blue):

What happens if "Avenger" meets "Admonition"?

Could "Admonition" discard Defence Tokens anyway?

greetings

Order66 Beta (maybe more Alpha Phase ?, for sure i´'m pre-Alpha anymore)

The use of the Admonition title is not affected by the Avenger title.

Because the wording of Avenger is “cannot spend”, and the wording of admonition is “Discard”, ie, not spend.... There is no interaction as to speak, and Admonition can discard a die that way, even if Exhausted.

@Order66 Beta vs. Darth Veggie starts on Monday 8 PM UTC. Then we will see what Avenger can do against Admonition! ?

The Danger Level on my ships is getting "screeching yellow".

But my confident Admiral Motti had suggested somthing like thad. ?

Any word on the @Roquax v. @Deadshane match scheduling? I’m super eager to get to the next matchup.

Yeah I gotta play today or tomorrow or I gotta forfeit round 3 T_T

Scheduled for Sunday

Also, any word on the @Gilad Pellaeon v. @Trogdor04 match? Is that going to happen today?

Roquax must've convinced my 5 year old to bounce my laptop off of my living room floor.

It will not go.

Dude I feel your pain. When she was little my daughter bent my laptop screen backwards. Total KO. No tech can ever be child-proof!

Man that’s rough. I have nightmares of my kids doing that to mine too.

Hey sorry do we report results here?

I squeaked out a 33 point mov win against dark helmet.

254-287

Fun game thanks

@MandalorianMoose @PT106 when are playing your game? I want to watch

Are we reporting round 3 yet?

@Aresius vs LTD has finished, with Aresius scoring 176 points to LTD's 140, for a 6/5, MOV of 36.

Aresius had initiative and made me first player. I chose Intel Sweep, and Aresius picked his Bail for turn 4.

I had a chance in turn 2 to steal the objective with my VCXs, but made a glaring activation error. Then in turn 3 I had a chance to block the Liberty from getting into range of the 3rd objective using a Rieekan'd flotilla, but failed through activating it at the wrong moment - I talked myself into my own failure on that one.

Aresius got the three tokens to my two.

I went to work on the hammerheads, killing two, and putting the hurt on the Liberty. I made a bad Nav decision in round 5 for final placement of a corvette, which meant the liberty lived on no shields and four hull. Disappointing is the word.

But, a good game, and excellent opponent.

For iFART purposes:

Aresius lost 2 Flotillas, 2 hammerheads

LTD lost 1 Corvette, 2 Flotillas, 1 VCX.

I did have a logfile, but it seems not to have saved properly. I will see what I can do.

Right now. We just started.

Zamalekite vs @RapidReload finishes 391:209 MOV 182 to me for an 8:3 win.

I had the bid and chose first player choosing his Fleet Ambush. I managed 7 tokens vs his 1.

A final round of bombing whiffed with an Adar'd Scurrg rolling two blanks blacks :( - his last remaining combat ship survived with one hull, doh!

I lost Yavaris and both my GR75s, the BCC getting narrowly clipped in the last turn for a final ram. I lost Corran, Tycho, Luke, 1 VCX and Dagger.

RR lost Yav, Pelta, naked HH and all squads.

Thanks @RapidReload for being such a great sport! We finished very late Austrian time and I caused a couple of pauses (thanks kids!).

PwnerTrainee Vs @jjscloud9 finished 269:203 MOV 66 to me for a 6:5 win (sorry to steel format)

JJ had the bid and chose second player. I chose his solar corona. He had my quasar cornered and was near tabling me but I was able to slip away. Made a dumb mistake of trying to kill his Cymoon that was going to fly off the board regardless but oh well. Happens.

I lost Centicore, both Gozantis, and my Vader Raider as well as one TIE phantom.

JJ lost Cymoon and a victory.

Good game man, hope to play again in the future!

Fleet ambush nad tokens? @Zamalekite did I miss something i this scenerio or you mean fighter ambush

PT106 vs @MandalorianMoose ended up as 9-2 in my favor (MoV 294), however this doesn't really reflect the matchup at all, as MandalorianMoose had very bad dice through the whole game, so not one but at least 4 different important encounters resolved in my favor where they should not (including him needing 3 rounds of squadron shooting to kill Demo instead of 1 and me being able to table his ISD, which I had no business of doing based on position and both ISD loadouts).

For the record, we played Contested Outpost with me as second player, I tabled him and lost both Gladiators and one gozanti, while having 5 outpost tokens to his 1 (500-294). All my squads (single Ciena Ree) survived.

Doh. Yes I meant fighter ambush! That's what I get for positing results in a hurry so I can go to bed :)

Bantha vs. Tokra is over.
We were playing my Sensor Net.
Bantha got 415 points, i got 301 (120 from Tokens) points. This makes a 7-4 für Bantha with a MOV of 114.

His Admo was left on two hull, Luke never hit anything (like so many times...).
His dice were just to hot. Rolling hit/crit all over with the black dice was insane. The Hammerhead did 7 damage with the side attack and 4 with the front attack against the Yavaris on the drop.

I made a few mistakes, especially when flying in to fast in the first round (should go to speed 1 and jsut stay at my side...), but after all the Raddus is just an insane commander. Way to easy to fly, way to dangerous with a huge area that he can block and forcing the opponent in a totally defense stance.
Somehow i see him like Rhymer pre nerfed. With Rhymer you could draw a huge deadly area around him where the squadrons could go and attack everything. With Raddus it is even worse :P.
