Ardaedhel 10,840 Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) Ard vs SkyCake 10-0 in SkyCake's favor. 406-46 by my preliminary math, which may be wrong because it's very late and I'm tired. Fantastic game on Joe's part: he nuked Rieekan by round 2, fastest I've ever lost him. After that my whole strategy just fell apart. In brief: he played it exactly right, targeting Rieekan hard; I got greedy when I saw the ISD's drop to 0 and split my fire instead of focusing like my original plan called for. Very well-played, SkyCake! Edited March 31, 2016 by Ardaedhel 2 MattShadowlord and SkyCake reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Viperous 351 Posted March 31, 2016 Ard vs SkyCake 10-0 in SkyCake's favor. 406-46 by my preliminary math, which may be wrong because it's very late and I'm tired. This has to be the shock of the tournament so far for me. Well done Skycake! Congatz to FTV. They have consistently amazed me this tournament. (I would have begged Ianediger to let me play you when we drew you in round 1 cause I thought my list would demolish your's. Now definitely not so sure.) 4 ianediger, Captain ICT, MattShadowlord and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkyCake 1,183 Posted March 31, 2016 Great game last night! Thanks to Ard for staying up so late with me, I could tell the guy really needed some sleep... nevertheless, he was courteous and kind and had no issue answering my many questions about the game... Game notes: 1. Speed zero 1 round may have won me the game. It meant one less turn of sw7 barrage, and with only 3 hull and 5 hull left on my ISD's after 6 rounds, I'm glad I made that decision.. 2. Spammed engineering rounds 3 through 6 and only wing commander'ed a couple of them away... having both the eng commands to mitigate damage and the flexibility to call squadrons last second helped tons! Especially for a new player like myself who is less able to get the most out of the command stack... 3. I can never pronounce "Dengar" without saying it in some weird Australian accent... "Deeeeengah" 4. Teamspeak was an excellent way to play out the game and I would look to use it in any match I could. 5. After Ard retired for the night, captainICT correctly calculated the mov to be 364... 6. Han Solo is a boss! Took out 2 tie advance, and a bomber, and activating first is a really great way to tie up bombers! All in all, I had a lot of fun, learned a lot too... can't wait for my next game of armada!! Cheers! 2 Maturin and MattShadowlord reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Onca 99 Posted March 31, 2016 Onca vs Truth Onca wins 299-115 8-2 Objective was Minefields ----------------------------------- Quite an exciting game. Lots of weird maneuvers. My ISD ended up doing a complete 180 at the end. Also there was that really narrow shave with my GSD (pictured below). The squadron fight was quite one sided, as my squads were geared specifically to deal with bomber squads. Especially those that relied heavily on Jan/Dengar. My experiment with IG88 was somewhat a success. I was able to target the intel ships and other well placed bombers with him, and really pressure Truth into trying to keep Jan safe; reducing her effectiveness. My advanced did a fantastic job of soaking up all the X wing attacks, while soont kept pinging them and their Yavaris attacks. 6 ianediger, Viperous, MattShadowlord and 3 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dorrin314 115 Posted April 1, 2016 Dorrin vs Cutter ended up in a 10-0 to me, MOV of 394. We played Cutter's Fire Lanes, all of the obstacles ended up in a cluster on one end of the board and the fire lane tokens went in them. I jumped my corvettes up fast and grabbed the first round of tokens, Cutter got the second round of fire lane token. We called it bottom of turn 3 he had 1 VSD with 1 health left. Cutter got really unlucky this game with his bomber dice, he had something around a 75% miss rate for the game. Well played Cutter I was a little worried going into this one. 1 BiggsIRL reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My advanced did a fantastic job of soaking up all the X wing attacks, while soont kept pinging them and their Yavaris attacks. Full credit due to Onca here. He gave me some very bad choices for objectives and forced me into some bad positions. However, this was probably one of my worst performances in a while. I could have kept my flagship alive by changing any one of three bad decisions. Oh well. It was a fitting end to a poorly constructed list. 1 Onca reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
