GronardII 385 Posted November 6, 2015 GAAAAAA!!!!!! Why did he pull the A-wings out! You know how much pilot pensions COST!!!! 1 NebulonB reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Extropia 1,475 Posted November 6, 2015 What's happening? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobaMatt 20 Posted November 6, 2015 I believe they played all six turns, so game over. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NebulonB 793 Posted November 6, 2015 so its over. 2 glads and the rebel flagship vette destroyed. a few more pts from outpost to Imps, but, what is it, 6:4 for Rebel I guess. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Extropia 1,475 Posted November 6, 2015 About as expected then. GSDs too aggressive in a super fragile list. Well done Rebs! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GronardII 385 Posted November 6, 2015 (edited) GSD heads in, dies to A-wings GSD #2 heads in, kills CR90, dies to A-Wings VSD has outpost, AFKIIs shooting at to OK, but not good enough effect. A-wings pulled out to rob Empire of the 11 points per VSD survives on outpost, game ends 189-164. A-wings would have shreded VSD, should have been sacrafised to do so. Pilot survival does not me consern. Edited November 6, 2015 by GronardII Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Extropia 1,475 Posted November 6, 2015 That was way closer on points than it sounded. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ardaedhel 10,840 Posted November 6, 2015 I agree with Gronard, but from what the commentators were saying there may have been larger tournament-level considerations that we weren't privy to, so... Eh... Still pretty sure he could've at least gotten close on that Vic if he'd tried... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ardaedhel 10,840 Posted November 6, 2015 It was close on points cause the Vic camped out on the outpost unopposed for the last three turns. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobaMatt 20 Posted November 6, 2015 VSD is worth more points than all A-wings combined. Plus VSD was still sitting on the Outpost. May have been better off continuing to shoot with A-wings. Though I'm not sure if he had the time to completely take out the VSD. He probably would have needed 2 rounds to do it. He may have only had 1 round of shooting with A-wings left at that point.

Extropia 1,475 Posted November 6, 2015 Smart tbh, it was never going to win that fight after the GSDs got killed piecemeal. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lyraeus 4,759 Posted November 6, 2015 I don't know ow how I feel about this. . . I would have been a little more aggressive towards the end. . . 1 BobaMatt reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Extropia 1,475 Posted November 6, 2015 We're any A-wings hurt? The score was so close he may not have wanted to risk losing any. Or, as was suggested, it was strategic based on tournament standings. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GronardII 385 Posted November 6, 2015 (edited) The Empire protected the outpost from Rebel aggression for most of the game. (about 5 turns for 100 points) As for tournoment considerations, sympathy* for the enemy is treason!** * Point shaving ** Against the rules in just about any game/leage/tounoment I have ever heard of. If the commentators think this is the case, they should report the Rebel player. Edited November 6, 2015 by GronardII Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobaMatt 20 Posted November 6, 2015 We're any A-wings hurt? The score was so close he may not have wanted to risk losing any. Or, as was suggested, it was strategic based on tournament standings. Yes, at least one had taken 2 damage from anti-squadron fire. Some others had taken 1 damage each. But none were really in danger yet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the commentators think this is the case, they should report the Rebel player. Not point shaving, just pointing out the possibility that, say, 6-4 would put him in striking distance of top table but the possibility of dropping down to 5-5 wouldn't, or something like that. Something making it a bigger loss for him to lose a single A-wing, however unlikely, than game points alone would indicate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daveddo 160 Posted November 6, 2015 The VSD had 4 damage cards on it, could have easily been killed my the A-Wings. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ardaedhel 10,840 Posted November 6, 2015 Oh wow, did it really? Yeah, poor decision at the end then for the Rebel, that probably ended up costing him a 10-0. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
