Armada Team Tournament - Vassal

[doobleg 658]

 

Can I sign up as an alternate? My schedule is somewhat limited (has to start after 2100 PST) and I don't want to bring down my team if I'm not able to show up for a round. Of course, this is still a better choice than not having a full team! So if the number of sign-ups isn't a multiple of 3, then feel free to recruit me. I fight for the Rebellion, by the way.

 

A bit late to it, but this is not a terrible idea.

 

** New Rule **

 

Each team may, if they so choose, bring one (1) "alternate" who may play in one game per team matchup, replacing a regular team member only if that team member is unable to schedule a game.  The "alternate" must use the list of the team member they are replacing.  The use of an "alternate" must be announced when the game is officially scheduled in the thread.

 

 

I love this rule!

 

Does the alternate need to be announced as part of the team before sign-ups close, or are they free-agents who we can wrangle in during the comp?

Since the lists can't change, I vote for free agents. Could make for some fun wrangling.

Might also make it easier to set up matches where time zones are problematic for original opponents, as you could select an alternate from the right side of the planet.

A good point has been made for free agents.

Remember, only one sub per matchup per team. Choose wisely.

while I accept all forms of flattery, I must admit I'm a little confused by how I relate to these statements...

An, but you see...you're famous now, so your name can appear in any and all circumstances, simply in the hopes that some of your greatness will rub off...

Is this gonna turn into that game where you quote Star Wars, but replace a word with pants Clontroper5?

[Viperous 351]

"If you strike Clontroper5 down, he will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine."

 

"The ability to win a competition with 4 Raiders is insignificant compared to the actual power of Clontroper5."

 

"Fear is the path to losing a tournament. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering (at the hands of Clontroper5)."

Wow, 10 teams!

And we still have another week to go before sign up ends!

This is starting to look like the largest Vassal tournament yet

[Sturmtruppen X1 165]

YO,

I would be happy to play as an alternate (teamless atm)

On the condition that i am on the winning team an Imperial team.

[BiggsIRL 6,717]

It has come to my attention from Green Knight that we should have a "standard" vassal version for this tournament, as 2.1.5 and 2.1.6 Beta don't play well with others.

**New Rule Alert**

 

As of now, all games will be played with 2.1.5 as the default, however players can play with the 2.1.6 Beta if they agree to do so beforehand (Talk about it during scheduling).

B-b-but 2.16 has added chat reports, and those speed up the game quite a lot in my experience. Also, I never had any issues playing with 2.16 (not beta, too early to say that) with 2.15, can anybody confirm?  

[BiggsIRL 6,717]

From what I am hearing, there are enough differences now between 2.1.6 beta 3 and 2.1.5 that they no longer play well together.  Because 2.1.6 it is still technically a beta, 2.1.5 will be the baseline, but by all means agree (with the other player) to play the beta if you want.

[Pilot no55389 120]

Fair enough!

There are no MAJOR issues, but there is a couple of MINOR ones.

 

The most visible being related to the MC30 and the new LoS dots/placement of the speed/hull value boxes. The image names are the same, so players with different versions will see the LoS dot in different places (and presumably think the other party sees the same).

 

The second most visible is the other LoS thread - people on 215 simply won't see it (but they do see the other one).

 

The rest of the "problems" stem from the automation. I.e. only those on the beta will be affected by the refresh all button etc. Nothing that breaks anything, but it could cause some confusion.

[Zanos 38]

This is...very interesting. I think I'd be up for it.

[Madaghmire 7,274]

I assume it was the new version green and biggs used yesterday in their streamed game, and it looked like a very postive step forward in vassal armada to me.

Yes, it was the beta 3. Full of nice new features that should make for a better, faster experience.

I have a beta 4 ready that fixes some minor issues, plus fully integrates fighters.

And clon gets his zero speed on the stand-alone dial :-D

That should be the last build for a while.

Blood,Sweat and Beers

 

Unfortunately I have had to disband the team..:-(

This is due to lack of time (work seems to be trying to make life difficult for me atm)

 

Im sry for letting anyone in or out of the team down..

 

Hope everyone will understand and good luck to everyone.

Teams updated in the OP.

[MoffZen 760]

Any room in a team ? I can play both factions, although I'm not as effective with Imps as Rebels !

[Viperous 351]

@ MoffZen Start your own team. Be a captain. Find members. 11 teams in a bad number for a tournament at the moment anyway.

Not that I don't think it is great that we have so many people wanting to play, it just isn't an even number.
