The cardboard is buckling in the range 3 segment. Not too bad, but it's getting time to switch out anyway.
Do you have a new one? Let me know if you want me to bring one of my 4 unused cardboard range rulers on Thursday to give you.

Yeah I have an extra. Like I said it's definitely shorter though, and both range 1 and 2 are about 2-3mm shorter
I won't be able to play tonight if anyone was thinking of playing at Eternal. But I may be able to play Wed/Thurs. I was thinking we might try an epic game and bust out the Transports and the Tantives. Let me know what you guys think.
I can't make tonight either. I have an appointment on Thursday night as well, but might be able to swing Wed.
Anyone else want to be epic?
Some how my range rulers made the rounds at the tournament. I think I ended up with someone else rulers because mine didn't seem that bad off until after the tournament. I've been thinking of getting some of the acrylic ones from LTKO. Anybody used them or have them? Thoughts?

Well, that's because your other one was too long! Just another reason to use one ruler the entire match.

I might be able to swing Wednesday at Eternal. Now that I've finished pining over my fifth place finish Saturday maybe i should start reading the epic rules eh?

You took 5th too, eh? I think I would have rather placed lower then to get so close and NOT take away a ship.
If I can make it Wednesday, which is a possibility, I'd be down for epic.

Yeah, spent the last two days dissecting what mistakes I made and what I need to do better next time as well as how I would have approached the winning build. I think I flew pretty well and had a sound build and strategies, but in just a few weeks everything changes right? Out with the old in with the advanced cloak. Lol
Wife is going out with a friend Wed. night, so my transport and I are good to go for tomorrow night at Eternal Games.
Though I'm willing to play Imp and loan my transport to the other side.

Both Basementcuts and I have Transports and Tantives, so we can do something crazy if you want. 300pts and 5 epic points. I kind of want to run a 300pt Imp build. Aces, Vader and Boba!
300 Pts. Seems like so many till you toss the tantive in there.
Can't make it tonight Eternal crew. Too much to do, too little time.
Hope to see you next week.
I'm in a similar boat. Don't think I can make it tonight. I may have burned my game for the week on the tournament. Sorry guys.
Well I'm still in until Basementcuts says otherwise. And we'll be plotting all night how to beat you guys. ![]()
I'm in. Want to fly this rebel build I just finished. Tantive, transport, Han Solo, three bwings.

How early can you be there?
Last time I played a 300 point game it ran from 7:30 until like 10:30/11 PM.
I can be over there around 6 PM
I'm going to try to make 6:30.
Here is a picture of our 300 point game.
After downing the transport fairly early, the Rebels ended up victorious after about a 3 and half hour game.
I flew something like 4 bombers (3 scrubs and Jonus), 5 interceptors (3 scrubs, Carnor, and Soontir), and 1 Firespray.
Basementcuts flew 3 B-wings, Han, Transport, and CR-90.
If I had it to do again I would have positioned my guys much differently and maybe reduced the amount of ordinance on the Bombers and replaced the Firespray with 3 or 4 more regular TIE Fighters. I also could have flown in a much tighter formation.
All that said, the game was really fun. It felt more like a real epic space battle as opposed to the typical 100 point tournament style show downs.

Sounds like fun.
In related news, who all is going to RIW tonight? And do you want to try out epic games or continue with 100pt games? I'm fine either way, I have two lists I'm developing for my final (unless I decide to go to Chicago of course!) regional so I would be happy trying them out... But I also have all this new shiny bling in the form of huge ships that I want to play with...
Unfortunately I have to work tonight and will not be at RIW
I'll likely be there tonight provided my brake inspection goes okay. I'm up for any type of game, but fielding 300 points of Epic on the imp side may require a few loaners. I'd be happy with just 100 pointers for now.
In related news, who all is going to RIW tonight?
I won't be able to make it to RIW tonight because one of my labmates graduated and we're having a farewell dinner for him. I think I should be able to make RIW Thursdays more generally in the coming months, though. We'll see.
A few of us will be at Fun 4 All on Saturday afternoon (2pm) if anyone wants to get some games in this weekend.

My first Epic win may have a Barry Bonds-esque asterisk next to it... More to follow after some healthy debate elsewhere on the forum regarding use of the WED Repair Droid.
Nah you were going to win anyway. It is more like a close ball\strike call that prevented me from breaking up a no hitter. I just want to know for future reference.

Any idea if they are running Epic at Regionals going forward this year? I'm imagining it taking an entire weekend if they do.
