That's the best I got, I understand a few upgrades must be missing from the lists but that's the best I can remember. Hope it provides some insight. Not sure of the positions of the last 3 chaps either

 

Best moment of the tournament was when a Insidious hyperspaced into a game (with Hyperspace Assault obviously) at round 4 and obliterated an ISD. A brave move as many would hyperspace in at the beginning of round 2.

Very interesting to see the winner had only 4 squads.  How many players in tourney, and did the winner go against any squad heavy lists like a Fireball or the 4xwings  jan  han list?

Yes Chris, 1st beat 2nd in the final game. Unfortunately there were 7 players in the tournament (which involved someone having a bye) but it was a better turnout that the previous 3 tournaments. In a way, I am kinda glad I came 3rd.

Hey now, 2nd beat 1st! :D Me and Chris were tied on points after the last game I believe, so that even though I won our encounter & won 3-0 on the day, Chris took 1st on 2-1 due to his stonking MoV from earlier on (10-0, 10-0).

But to answer Chriscook, yep, my Jan Ors, 4xX and Han Solo did a pretty good number on Chris's overload VSD.  After a couple of rounds of activation from Ackbar, they went for the time-honored bugs-on-a-windshield technique, and chewed through pretty well... If their rolls had been a bit better they would have been able to break off and attack his final gladiator, which would have pushed me over the line I think. Han rolled one hit on a ship all game long, I seem to recall!

I'd say that my mc30, Foresight, was my ship of the match for me; it tied up both gladiators for the whole game, dooming one and leaving the other a bit beaten up. It's a lot of fun to fly, and TLR and foresight with Ackbar makes it a serious proposition at range and a demon up close. If I can afford it, I might even splash on a second one for a Rieekan list.

Awesome day of gaming with top people, what more can you ask for?
