Good point.

Time to shine light on how bad I am vs how good I think i am...😂

I’m in. Hope I get a game in against you so we can fight for the bottom. 😉

Sounds like a plan!

I’d propose restricting squads to just one defense token. If they have two player choice as to which one to keep.

While an interesting idea as to how to limit ace squadrons in the game, ultimately the point of this tournament is to get players experimenting with new ideas and combinations outside their personal and the meta norm. To that end, I don't think making such a substantial change to how aces play on the table would be very informative to players as they start thinking about Regionals.

It's an interesting idea though, I'll hang on to it for the next time I need to handicap a Sloane ball!

Gotcha, I see what you are trying to do with this tournament. Makes sense.

Count me in please!

Might have a go at this. Not played a Vassal game, but do use it to'what if'. Which is not far from 'whiff'. May the farts be with you.

Fleet Exercises is now accepting list submissions. I'm looking forward to seeing what you lot have dreamed up.

Submitted.

I’ve got mine submitted. Good call on the squadrons. I really like the restricted list too.

I'll see how I get along with the fleet I'm taking to UK Nationals on Friday - just need to swap one squad for a generic and them it's viable for the this tournament :)

My fleet is submitted, hopefully I didn't make any mistakes!

Submitted.

I'll submit soon as I learn how to play Armada without Thrawn 🤣🤣

Double post for the 😎

Work is finally slowing up for a couple of weeks after this weekend so anyone interested in a match can PM me.

It will be the only zone I can play in really. 5-10pm Pacific time are out of the question for Armada right now. Has to be 7am-5pm Pacific or after 10 which are both more convenient for you Euros than the average American.

How many do we have signed up so far then?

How many do we need....

To do four rounds each zone needs five players, though that’s round robin not Swiss. I’ll take as many players as sign up, since it’s minimal work on my end.

When I checked on Thursday there were already seven. I’ll post a list of confirmed signups with legal fleets later today if I can.

And are we allowed to make changes once submitted? :)

Yes, resubmission is allowed, and I'll use whatever the last fleet submitted is (ask @Ardaedhel about that one). My only request is don't spam me with every idea you have please.

Fleet submitted!

@GiledPallaeon

So if I understand this correctly, the tournament is scheduled to start July 1st?

Submitted my third list...

I’ll stop now.
