2019 VASSAL Autumn Tourney is over!

By Karneck, in Star Wars: Armada

After going through about 4 variants, I think I've finally settled on one that will work.

Answers to questions

1. What happens first after Demolisher Movement? Fighter Coordination Team or Demolisher attack?
The player decides in which order to resolve.

2. What happens first after squadron-activation of a Lambda Shuttle? Strategic token movement or the attack of the lambda?

A strategic token can only be moved when the lambda shuttle itself has moved (even if this is when it is picked up and placed back down in the same spot). Meaning if it is engaged, it cannot move and thus, cannot move a token.
Otherwise the Lambda follows the usual benefit of being activated by a squadron command, it can choose to move and/or shoot in either order.

3. Can Moralo (triggered by a token movement) attack and then move? Or is it just move and then attack?

He can choose to move and/or shoot in either order.

4. Are we considering ace Lando’s reroll ability as occurring within the spend defense tokens step for this event?

As per usual when spending defense tokens to produce an effect, the only time this can occur is in the spend defense token step.
Meaning, Lando can only choose to use his ability if he has access to his defense tokens to spend and are not locked by Accuracies, or otherwise prevented from spending a defense token.

Fleet submitted with less than 9 hours to tinker with...LOL.

Edit: Resubmitted cuz I am tinkering now... ***sigh***...less than 7 hours left to tinker some more...

List has been submitted. I was bouncing between two lists still not sure if the one I settled on is the better of the two but we will go with it!

I'm only missing a fleet submission from @RealVeers
You have 45 minutes to submit your list. Otherwise I am currently doing reviews and final checks of all submitted lists

I got one more question

Are there any restrictions on where Ezra Bridger can move an obstacle to? Can it be slid underneath a ship or say a proximity mine to be dragged to the rift?

All obstacles when moving follow the rules as explained in the Rebellion in the Rim RRG. Meaning no, an obstacle cannot be moved and placed underneath a ship.
As for the answer to your 2nd question, please watch the following from 14:44 until 18:50

Error on my part, Realveers did submit and will be playing me on table 15.

Will update to add fleets next free moment I have.

Updated the fleet lists to add my list and RealVeers list.

So far I just need @stephen_harris70 to PM me his correction to his list and everything should be good to go. All other corrections have been made and we already have one battle concluded!

RealVeers and I should be playing 8PM PST Tuesday (For me) which is 5am (Wednesday) for him

Edited by Karneck

Jabawookie and Brobafett play monday at 3:15 Pacific time.

Edited by BrobaFett

CommanderDave and I will play Wednesday at 12:30 Eastern.

Order66_beta and I play at 6 UTC. Or 2.5 hrs from now.

Going to see how well I've learned vassal the past week or so.

SSD 1

THAT one is the big surprise to me, actually. Given this particular play format lets you run it for "free", I was rather expecting to see a lot more of them as people sort of 'demo' it in a tournament to decide if they want to make the purchase or not.

It hasn't been updated with the two added fleets.

I'm rocking an SSD as well.

Edited by Karneck

So far pretty much half of the tables have their games concluded, we're well on our way! I know there are quite a few more games playing in the next 2-3 days as well.

As added incentive, the sooner round 1 concludes, the sooner round 2 starts which means that players could see more days in which to play their games for the rounds.

Boo Kallus JJ SSD. That's like kryptonite for my fleet...

Doh now I've said that to the guy who does the match pairings :D

:) well, you seem to be my kryptonite. So the fireball will be bright and shiny :).

@medaloffairness vs Rikash starting now on Vassal. I've picked Rift Ambush (to make this more fun).
