@xanderf (cymoons) vs Clontroper5 (Gladiators)

Will be throwing down tonight at 8:00 pm pacific time.

@Irishmadcat vs. Tokra is over.
Tokra won with 400 killed and 19 lost (Jan Ors).

It was a **** of a match (Irishmadcat will post the livestream video from it). We were playing his Solar Corona.

The MC75 was on Steroids. Dropping and killing the MC30 on drop (two insane attack rolls that one shot a Lando_Admo) without allowing it to attack (he activated his Mark II first, that was also in my double arc), ramming the Mark II to death on the next turn, taking out the Pelta and finishing the damaged Nebulon. And was still at 2 hull in the end.
I was only lucky that the Nebulon did not have a navigate in the end, when the MC75 was at 1 hull.

But i have to say, a Salvation Nebulon is really good, when you cannot take it down fast (or have too many other targets in range…). 8 damage with the first attack and 6 with the second was really nice.

DarthVeggie vs Ginkapo

Veggie 1st player precision strike

Deployment - Turn 1 Raddus drop (actually a bit further away)

Score 7 -4 ....

275 vs 196

Finished my game with @CommanderDave . Dave was player 1

Winner: Commander Dave

Score 277-61

MOV 216

Obj: Capture the VIP.

Dave played a great game and managed to chew through my super engineers. I had pretty horrible flak, but overall my game plan didn't work out very well. Thanks for a great game, commanderdave.

MandoMoose vs @itzSteve ends 356-157 in my favor. MOV 199, he picked my Station Assault. We split on stations and he almost tabled himself but the Raddus escape wagon juuuuuust managed to not run off the board. Good game, best of luck in the rest of the tournament!

Wrapped with a 10-1 to me, although could easily have gone the other way - close game at spots, just had one really good turn at the end (a nearly dead Gladiator tried to escape my rear arc and failed, and I managed with the full fury of a spinal-upgraded Cymoon-backed Vader to...*ALMOST* kill another Gladiator out my front. That I did finish with a ram. 😎 )

Initiative was to Clontroper , who took 1st Player
Objective was Fire Lanes
XanderF - 516
Clontroper - 136

Maturin vs Keskai Fleet Exercises

298-223, Maturin as second player

We played my Precision Strike, and I killed 1 VSD while Keskai killed all my ships except Dodonna’s AF. However, no fighter squadrons died and they did sterling work with the mission. I got 12 victory tokens to Keskai’s 3 (a lucky crit on the ISD stopped him from earning at least 2 more tokens).

You are correct sir! Ok, link corrected. Thanks much.

ps I believe the first part started after setup. Sorry about that!

@Beginner2Winner vs @RealVeers

Initiative: RealVeers, choosing first player.

Objective: Navigational Hazards

Result: 100 - 0 MoV for RealVeers, 7-4

Logfile (lots of german talk inside!)

GG to B2W, it was a great game and your list gave me lots of headache. I got lucky in the 2nd round, destroying his CR90 with my combined Bombers and Warlord shot, and could dodge his long range artillery for most of the game. T5 I had a opportunity to snipe his Bright Hope. Great tactical game, and we could both use the obstacles to our advantage to create a living battlefield.

I'll write an in-depth-report tomorrow after work, with some pictures.
