@Tokra v Sam ends 251-121 to me. Tokra chose my infested fields and I proceeded to fling rocks at his munificent while our squad balls mulched each other in the center, worms providing support for the republic. Anakin, Plo, and a Torrent were all that survived of the squads, and the non-titled muni exploded turn 5 after running over one too many rocks. Thank you for the great game!

Go @Darth Veggie !
@MandalorianMoose vs. Veggie today at 9.30 PM UTC.
@JJs Juggernaut Vs Roald tomorrow at 6am GMT
@Darth Veggie v Sam ends with a concession to me in round 5 after I killed Tides and had Dooku boxed in between both acclamators. They took second and I picked Planetary Ion Cannon. Deployment was rather cagey with the Munis angled sideways and the squads keeping their distance from mine. My acclamators screamed in speed 3 and proceeded to run over each other for 3 rounds in a row (thanks for the engineering dials Bail!). Speaking of Bail, he got blown out of the sky by three very powerful Ion cannon blasts that I flew him directly into. Oops.
I started working on the Tides of progress, who absorbed and repaired a good amount of damage over the next few turns. I thought it was going to escape, but Veggie delayed its activation in turn 5, opting to throw squads with the Dooku flag, and its fate was sealed. The Acc 1 was able to hit it with Anakin, forcing it to burn its redirect, leaving it on 2 hull with no shields or redirect. The Acc was able to roll 4 damage and then close on the Dooku flagship, ready to double arc at close range with its exrax at the top of the next turn.
Thank you for the game, it was a real nail biter and I didn't think I would be able to pull a win out of this one. Tough opponent I look forward to playing against you again soon!
JJ vs Roald ended 246-225 in my favor. Very tight game with lots of carnage. GG!

VASSAL CW TOP 16 ELIMINATION ROUNDS - ROUND TOP 2 DRAW

Ended the Clone War has!
Lord Sidious, the Sith Lord that orchestrated the entire war has been exposed and cast down. The same goes for his Jedi allies and the corrupt government of the Republic.
The grand Confederacy of Independent Systems rises to take its place. Headed by former Jedi Count Dooku and protected by relentless droid legions, the new galactic realm will reign for a thousand generations.
The CW final is over and Beanicus has defeated JJs Juggernaut.
