Spryguy (3) defeats N3rd (0) 103-15 on Frigid Outpost
We had dueling master tactician which made it interesting.
I set up top left straight through the hallway.
Round 1 I ran up Saberan who opened the door to gambit and then swapped him with Lumiya who went into gambit.
Round 2 I won init and let him go first. I locked Great Mothers out and he moved Shin Hati in who based Lumiya but only did 20. Lumiya doubled and put 60 on Shin.
Round 3 I won init again and Lumiya finished off Shin. He moved up the Great Mothers adjacent to Thrawn and Saberan. Saberan attacked and did 60 to the Mothers after some missed alters. I swapped Mas in to keep Saberan back.
Round 4 I won init yet again and Lumiya finished off the great mothers. I based his Thrawn with Mas and then swapped in Saberan who finished off Thrawn. Scored gambit at the end to go over 100pts.
N3rd was very creative and deliberate with his movements and would have had more success had he won even one of the last 2 inits. Having an Override made it uphill for him, but he powered through and it was a fun game. Another round and he probably would've taken out Lumiya. Always a fun game. Good luck the rest of the way.

gandalf defeats Lightsaber 105-34 on Remote Listening Post (3-0)
Thomas won map and I set up on the left.
Asajj cloaked herself and we both advanced. For the first two rounds I was locked out of the middle room by Fixer's Override.
Round 3, the Spy blew up the door and San Hill sent Grievous into the main room to hide among the cables. The commandos took some shots at him and then Grievous spun his blades through them, dealing some damage to Scorch, Sev and Fixer. Asajj sped masterfully in to finish Scorch with a crit and take out their shield generator. Sev took aim at Grievous and took him down to halfway dead, triggering Presumed Dead.
Round 4, I won initiative and Asajj wiped out Sev. Boss and Fixer took her down to 10 hitpoints, but I used San to run her away like a chicken. Grievous came back up to the door.
Round 5, Boss and Fixer killed San Hill. Grievous moved next to both of them and Asajj took out Fixer.
Round 6, Boss made his last stand and fell to the combined might of the confederacy.

Can't remember the whole thing but here is my (probably misinformed) account
I win map roll and shmi chooses right. the nexus sets up right outside gambit with wyrrlock.
round 1 is just movement towards the centre. stryfe spends 2 fp on force awareness at the start of his turn. nexus gives wryylock a force point and easy paths strye who fails the save and takes 10. my hunters move up with talia and invis potions. shmi forgets to move with force awareness because my hunter who just change positions outside of it's turn.
round 2 starts and i win init. exit invis potion with talia and hunter adjacent to the door. this time stryfe does his force awareness. i go first and talia spins so the door check can happen. wryylock and nexus do their thang and i move up with the zombie to open a door and get a two shots with a hunter on stryfe. i'm pretty sure i missed one and hit the other. Stryfe activates and move out of the way. talzin is special and forgets to canon one of my hunters. some other stuff happens.
round 3 i lose init and i go first. zombie hits an ordanance. it takes out an xt6 with self destruct and my zombie takes ten (he makes presence of dark side save.) he moves into the middle of the hallway to make moving in there more annoying. Wyyrlock rises out of his grave and spends one of his own and one of the nexus' force points to move 4 squares more. he whacks talia twice and she water of lifes herself when she activates so she is on 40. hunter 1 and hunter two take down wyyrlock with the help of talzin. stryfe is still gaining those annoying force points.
round 4 is pretty eventful. i lose init and shmi goes first and charging assaults with stryfe to get talia gone. he takes an AO from a hunter. with talia down i fell broken hearted and disconcerted. i proceed to stab stryfe 4 times in the back with my hunters. they all miss lol. talzin activates and lightning on styfe to take him down to 50. cannons a hunter to attack him twice. though he has blood thirsty stryfe still manages to bubble it down to 40.
round 5 was sad because i lost init and all rounds where i lose init are sad :(. shmi being the meanie she is takes out a hunter with crushing blow. i lightning her with talzing and that ends the game.
hope you found my detailed summary boring and long. good game shmi. it has been brought to my attention that there was an illegal game state at the start of the match where the Nightsister Zombie should have been defeated immediately due to there being no one with Chant of Resurrection on NoffyD's squad. This did affect the outcome of the game and I think to promote fairness that a rematch does need to be done as the game was close and could have gone differently without that Zombie being around taking up an extra activation and also doing some damage and opening doors. Please try to reschedule your game for this week. sorry for the delay in responding to this issue, i was gone out of town for a few day and just got back home last night and am getting around to bloomilk this morning. If both players can get their rematch game in as soon as possible, that would be great. please try to arrange your schedules to get this game in so we can have up to date standings. The next round of the tournament will continue on Thursday as planned, so hopefully it won't be to hard to schedule in a 100pt game amidst the other games needing to be played.

I have a message in to Noffy to try to get the game in. I'm hoping we can still schedule before the end of the round--I will post here when we have a time. Thanks everyone!

NoffyD defeats UrbanShmi ( 97 to 75 ) on Ravaged Base (3-1).
I killed her whole squad so i'm pretty sure it counts as a 3pt win (correct me if i am wrong).
Round 1 my zombie dies and we move to positions pretty much the same as before.
Round two is just more movement. ordnance specialist move next to me and i shoot him and he self destructs both hunters down to 50.
at the start of round 3 i kill his xt6. He moves in with stryfe and gets one of my hunters. Stryfe awarenesses to just outside the door. to the right in the big hallway. Hunter deals some serious damage on stryfe.
Round 4 stryfe kills another hunter and i finish him with talia? (if shmi or jedi remember that would be great) Wyyrlock spends fp to move 4 squares more. He hits talia once and misses the other. talia spins and hits him twice. the canons both miss and talzin lightnings. wyyrlock is on 60?
Round 5 i win init talzin lightnings him and talia hits both canons? I think this is wrong and i stuffed up somewhere bc wyyrlock would still be on 10 then.
anyway the important thing is that it was a really close game and if shmi could've hit once more on talia she would've won sorry for all this stuff with the zombie shmi, but really well played.

urbanjedi defeated hi-fives 3-0 (100-38)
I won map roll so he got to pick the better side.
This game was all dice. I won every init except the very last init of the game, and he failed every djem-so save even with re-rolls.
My vader tooled up to his vader with cunning and dropped 80 (taking none from djem-so) then his vader hit me for 120 (so I Still lived).
I won the next init as well and finished off his vader (he did make the final djem-so) and both are vaders died.
That left reva and tarkin vs tarkin and wicket, which I easily dispatched after 2-3 rounds.
Going in, I was sure I was toast cuz his vader could do 150 (triple cunning rage that I Couldn't stop), but I didn't anticipate that I would win all the inits and he would fail all his djem-sos as well.
Good luck going forward.
