@PartyPotato and I are scheduled to play 6am CST / midday GMT tomorrow!

Will I be putting the 'Kite' in Zamalekite and chip away at Potato's ships for victory? Or will it be party over for me as my ships get turned into mash?!

So... uh... results?

They paused after round 3 and are picking back up in 90 mins I think.

Yup, we'll be resuming at 5pm CST /11pm GMT. Trying to play between a 6hr time difference and both having young kids has been a challenge! (especially when they are jumping on you)

Sadly for Team GB (I'm from London) I don't think I'm going to make it. Dual VSDs with 12 squads that can be sent in in waves are surprisingly effective is all I'll say for now...

Long live the Empire!

VWC participation cards are in! Everyone's receiving 2 copies of an alt art Hondo officer card. Of course you're free to do whatever you want with them, but @BiggsIRL and I thought it would be very Hondo of you to give the 2nd copy to whoever you're playing the first time you use your copy of the card.

I still need mailing info from the following players so I can send their cards:

@Dupy @OutboundFlight @Roquax @GiledPallaeon @PartyPotato @comatose @Bantha @The_tony_davis @Tokra @Dark Raver @MandalorianMoose

Here's the link to the google form .

Least I can do is renaming the Lib.

Ah the Steel Squadron preview. When you said preview, for some reason I thought you meant the YouTube description. I was searching for a clue in the YouTube description that wasn't there. 😆

@Aresius and I are scheduled for 3pm CEST (2pm UTC, 9am EST) this Saturday, 2/2/19.

PT and I should still be on for today, roughly 4 hours from now! Get hype.

@BiggsIRL

@PT106

@MandalorianMoose and I are scheduled to get our game in on Monday night. I was pushing hard for a game with him last night while he was in a codeine/robotussan induced fugue state to get over something (flu?) but he was smart enough to defer to when his double computer monitors coalesced back into a single screen.

Two games today! Hype!!

Sorry I am slacking on the previews guys - the 4 I got to was about what I could manage before hitting long work days.

It's ok. Here's our preview -

PT hasn't lost vers 2 ship yet, and has been firmly in the camp of 2 ship not being OP and being beatable.

Steel Squadron gives the edge to PT because it makes sense and Steel Squadron has never given me the edge in any preview ever :D

Man.... this blogging thing ain't that tough... you should hire me on Biggs!

And Geeks anaylysis: Well here we see the Offense factors of Pt build is quite substantial, but that Defense from The 2 Ship is nigh Inpregnible, so it comes down to intangibles, since leia isn't involved I have to give to Broba because Defenders look awesome!

Something something... Chicago Bears.
