NOVA Open GC Day 2

By dsnowak, in Star Wars: Armada

I will post updates here throughout the day. Photos will be posted on the NOVA Fleet Facebook page .

Day 2 Rebel Commanders: Ackbar x5, Mon Mothma x1, Raddus x3, Rieekan x2, Sato x2

Imperial Commanders: Jerry x5 (3 on SSDs), Konstantine x1, Motti x1, Piett x2 (both on SSD), Sloane x4, Thrawn x2

Two Satos, a Mothma, and no Garms.

Sad.

Only one more Thrawn than Konstantine...

JJ seems to be commander of choice for SSD. Still think he is the best commander for it! The swing at the front is just crazy

Blah. I think Jerjerrod is a one-trick pony on the SSD. Sure that trick (*coughgimmickcough*) is a good trick, but are you really going to use it effectively more than once the whole game?

Give me Piett+Executor for one more point. I can do something interesting and useful every round that matters.

Yes, this is somewhat tongue-in-cheek, but I stand by my preference!

Props to the guy for trying to use Konstantine. I want to try him with the new Gravity Rift objectives

Standings after 3 rounds. SSD remains at top of the standings.

Two rebels snuck into the top 8 playoffs, then, right? Go Rebels!

Congrats @PT106 ! First person to win swiss with an SSD!

I must say though, ever since they announced that JJ would work on an SSD I was pretty sure he'd become the main admiral to go on it.

Would I be right in assuming JJ SSDs did significantly better than non-JJ versions at NOVA and Euros?

Euros only had one SSD in the whole field.

You would not. My Piett SSD was 4th on Day 1,barely missed the cut solely off MOV. Most of the JJ SSDs ended up towards the bottom of the rankings.

Ah, I must be thinking of German Nationals that had at least 3.

Well done! Pity you missed out. Would have been cool to have 2 SSDs in top 8.
