Green Knight 8,622 Posted March 21, 2017 When the Rebels liberate Crash's Drift, they will earn one campaign point. On the off chance Vader should win he can take home a point too. 1 Ginkapo reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darth Veggie 873 Posted March 21, 2017 (edited) 7 hours ago, Darth Veggie said: It will be written in the history of the empire's fall that the empire suffered terribly at Crash's Drift when Mon Mothma herself led there the first assault of the rebel alliance! Well, it will be written like that. I told you, guys. And no word of a petty raid! Mon Mothma vs. Vader 400 - 98 (Hyperspace Assault) The game was decided when I had a lucky roll at the beginning of round 4 with one of my TRC90 against Vader's limping ISD. Afterwards the remaining imperial ships retreated to hyperspace. Scarred rebel units: - 1 TRC90 (stupidly flown off the map - this is the first time this happened to me in this game; really annoying) - 2 yt2400 - 1 VCX-100 Scarred imperial units: - Vader's ISD 2 - Howlrunner - Mithel - 4 1 Tie Interceptors Veteran rebel units: - 1 TRC90 Veteran imperial units: - Mauler Mithel Logfile will come later.

Kikaze 303 Posted March 21, 2017 (edited) it was just 1 x tie interceptor? we ended with the interceptors ganking up/killing the vcx-100 (after hyperspace retreat, i thought surviving squads dont get scarred?) veterans , if i am not mistaken, are mithel and the cr90.

Darth Veggie 873 Posted March 22, 2017 (edited) You can be pretty confident about you trashing Ozzel. As I can tell you from yesterday ,the dice are heavily biased in our favour. That evens out even stupidities like flying off the map. Wait...does this mean... that the Force is with us? Talking about luck: Here is the logfile of yesterday's battle. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8-5yzhxFFOjdkxoUmtUZENONVU It starts in the middle of round 2. Not much has happened up to that point, apart from the most left kitten going even further to the left of the board and me navigating in response my most left CR90 hard to the right (initially it was oriented straight at my enemies). As I watched the replay, I could not help but to notice that both my kills (the Tie Interceptor and the Vader ISD) were results of hot dice. Thanks to Kikaze for this game. It was fun and a lot of adrenaline for me! Edited March 22, 2017 by Darth Veggie 2 Kikaze and Green Knight reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ginkapo 8,343 Posted March 22, 2017 Admiral Ozzel has a spynet. I am out of practice. Took me ages to figure out who could use it more. It was obvious really. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Green Knight 8,622 Posted March 22, 2017 OC Ozzel. Duh. Everything is SO predictable. Especially setup. I really wish the various specials were more useful. As is only yards and spynets are relevant. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kikaze 303 Posted March 22, 2017 the problem is that even if normal objectives get used, skilled spacers doesnt help that much, and diplomats is... WOW so bad. but in a way these were necessities to reduce the campaign's snowballing nature(i.e. not let a winning side have huge ingame advantages).

Picking planets annoyed me as there was no choice for me or you We might have gone for Corfai, since spacers are 99% certain to be useless to rebels r1. But Duro has such pleasant natives.

Ginkapo 8,343 Posted March 22, 2017 Corfai report Imperial Scarred - ISD I, Glad II, Tie Fighter, Tie Fighter, Phantom Veterans - Other ISD I Rebels Scarred - Pelta, BCC flotilla, Rieekan flotilla, Wedge Veterans - Luke and Norra Imperials killed both stations for 80 resources, on the last turn.... thanks to the third effort of a phantom to do 1 pt of damage and an ISD double arc on the other to get at least 7. And Imps take the game for an extra 40 resources. Let it be known that the dice were with Luke today, but the will of the galaxy was not 1 Kikaze reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
