Nop. Tokra (4th place) is flying an imperial list

Thanks. I just assumed he was still flying MC80+Yavaris combo but guess he dropped it after VWC

I think he won German nationals with Sloane though, right?

I still don't get why FFG doesn't 'hire' a live blogger about their world championships And by 'hiring', I mean just give that person a SSD or a pile of promos. I would love to see/watch/read about the next matches. Anything.

His first he won with Tarkin, second Sloane, third Dodo.

Is that 9 players at 23 that had to go to MoV to make the cut?

I feel like I’m going to be reliving my final mistake of the day for a while. I played a consistently top four Nova player, then @Rikash , then @Truthiness , and then @Ginkapo . It was almost like a Vassal World Cup pod. The mix of being fourth-round tried and contemplating having to face Ginkapo to complete running the gauntlet caused me to make a horrible deployment, pretty much guaranteeing a horrible loss.

go @duck_bird !

Any updates?

"Norm was 1st Nathan Weir 2nd Duckbird I believe 3rd and Gink 4th going into round this round "

Scuttlebutt I read on SWAE live chat.

Nah I was on table 4 and lost 5-6 to Yik.

Final scores should be posted any second!

Haha, not even close

Congratulations to @Tokra and Lady Sloane to their victory at the world championship!

First Empire world champion. First non-new world champion!

And this is @Tokra 's beautifully designed force of victory. No large ship!

Well designed! (And a tip to the hat to @Green Knight for his still marvelous green squadron!)

Big applause from me as well, @ tokra ! Well played!

I wonder how tokras list works against 2 Isd's with Gozanti Support

I’m thoroughly pleased it wasn’t ISD 2 ship or Rieekan Aceholes. Not that a player winning worlds with either doesn’t have to be an extraordinary Armada player, but a player bringing something unique to them and winning with it stands out even more to me

Congrats @Tokra well deserved!

Next Armada World Championship will take place in Germany. 😄

Not only tripple German Champion but also World champ!!

heartiest congratulation!!

Congratulations @Tokra ! Awesome result there.

Quite well. At least on the test games.

2 isd with gozanti means no squadrons. This means i can full focus on the ships. Takes around 3 turns to take down one isd. Killing both does not really work. But the bonus points from the mission will help.

I dropped it already before VWC. I just missed the time for last list handin, so had to play what i already submitted 😁 .

Ah, that's a pity (not for me though perhaps!) - still it turns out you didn't need the extra practice after all!

Hopefully I'll get a chance to play against the Sloane list another time

Glad we've got European double of WC and VWC this year!
