No offense taken, sorry for creating a mess to figure out

Laura picked Cantina, and I set up on the left. From round 2 I basically just beat down on the Mandos with Mirialans and senator shots. Laura had a cool move with the Outrider to push my bodyguard away from my Mirialans, but wasn't able to get enough damage to stick through bad attack rolls and good Makashi saves. I had 2 Mirialans left with 40HP and another with 20HP.

Match: Week 6

Darkdracul (3, 150, Republic) defeats UrbanShmi (1, 89, New Republic) on Starport Terminal.

Final (Darkdracul 150 - UrbanShmi 89)

Once again Vasaal Premium really paid off this week as I rarely rolled an attack less than a 17. Not too many crits, but hands down my highest rolling game of all time. That really didn’t help in this bad matchup for the witches as my squad was built to counter Uvaks. I enjoyed getting to roll dice with you Laura, best of luck in your final matches.

tint and I got our game in just in time.

Antarians win it 176-108 (3-1)

Covenant Consular with Force Sense and the last Jedi keeping the Synergy going was the MVP. He even hit both of his attacks, which was important.

Hey Trevor, it says in week 5 vs you I played Sith. It was Vong.

Laura had a really cool squad with a lot of tricks. Some pretty good firepower, jolt, missiles, mines, proximity mines, charging fire, walking through doors, etc.

I had a pile of jank constructed purely for the purpose of gambit abuse.

I didn't win the game - gambit did.

There's no way my squad could have taken out her's. I denied her gambit with diplomats, cloaked forward positioning, and R7s, while I racked up mine.

We played on my map - Rhen Var,
I started in gambit with my dianoga, and from the right moved my "forces" forward. She funneled everyone down the hall from the left in a typical approach. I raced my swoop into a position to take out her uggie, and did so the start of the next round. In doing so it left the door open for her two marines to come charging through, taking out one of my three R7s. I then locked the door (her urban combat specialist was a couple squares to far to blow the door), thus holding the rest of her force back for a round. I attacked with entire my pitiful force. I hit a CRIT with my rodian on her Marine (but alas, I think for the first time I've ever seen, ARMORED SPACESUIT did something, sparing him 10 more damage. Many more misses and 1 hit brought a total of 40 damage on one marine, bringing him down to 10hp, the other still full health. I moved my diplomats into the gambit room blocking the door (with the cloaked dianoga behind), and then locked the lower right door. It was impossible for her to get a shot on my diplomats without having LoS of the cloaked dianoga, so she couldn't attack either. She started the next round by taking out my swoop, but after that wasn't able to do much this round, I think killed a mouse or two. After she activated, I opened the lower door and took a few shots, taking out the injured marine. I lined up a hang glider for a nifty little mini strafe for the next round. Next round I did a 6 square strafe hitting one of her 2 Infiltrators, and then doing the regular attack to kill it. The surviving Infiltrator took out that hang glider and another one easily. She moved her Vanguard right next to my 2 diplomats that were blocking the door, and I essentially used my whole force to take out the vanguard. Next round she rushes my rodian off on the bottom right with her Marine and takes him out. Next round I take out the marine with my Jawa. I try and get clever and roll my amanin scout to base 3 of her figs. She wins init and takes him out. I have virtually nothing left that can do much damage. I finish off her Urban Combat Specialist with a critical from a CE juiced caamasii, and take out a technician with my cunning +20 Jawa. That and 8 rounds of gambit sealed the deal.

I had a jawa scavenger, Dianoga, Talz Chieftain and 2 caamasi nobles left that could do any damage. She would have wiped the floor with me had the game not finished due to gambit.

Laura's squad was cool and she played it well, and was a good sport about the whole thing. My squad wasn't very fun to play with (nor probably against). A very wise member of the Balance Committee that I had a great conversation with the other day told me that nothing in this community changes until you show how much it sucks. So that's what I did. Gambit abuse to the extreme. Multiple ways of keeping my opponent out of gambit the entire game. I didn't actually lock the door adjacent to gambit the entire game, the dianoga and camassi were enough (diplomats are really dumb btw). We were legitimately engaged the whole time, and I didn't simply sit in gambit (I could have, I just didn't want to bore my own self to death). So this wasn't even a question of door control, as her Urban Combat Specialist was one of the last pieces I killed. But realistically my squad was not up to snuff to actually defeat her squad in the allotted time, and so it successfully abused gambit to win.

Gambit is really fun, isn't it!?!

Jason won the map roll but he chose mine (Cantina). I set up on the left.


Round 1 we both advanced to gambit. Round 2, I won init and put 20dmg onto a Wookiee. Later I used Force Sense with my Consular and then got a lucky crit with a Ranger to kill Jason's ERC. He advanced his guys into the Gambit area (including his Bothan, who set malicious traps for several of my guys). I responded by charging my Mirialan Jedi Knight to kill the Bothan. I took 30dmg for my boldness, but it was worth it. Jason sent a Gold Ace around the bottom of the map, who then came up and shot one of my Rangers for 30dmg. More shots and misses and evades, all around. I won the next init and used my Mirialan one last time, to drop a Gold Ace before she died to a Wookiee's charge. After that it just got kinda hairy (pun intended!) as our forces traded shots. Jason tried to claw (pun intended again!) his way back onto the top of the damage race, but I was dealing it out as quickly as he was, so he wasn't able to catch up. Near the end, I only had 1 Jedi left, and half of my Rangers were outside of the Synergy range thanks to Jason's effective flanking maneuvers with a Wookiee and a Gold Ace...also, my Rangers were split up so that none of them could gain the Squad Firepower bonus. Nevertheless, I just had more attackers than he did at this point, so even though he dropped 2 or 3 more of my guys, I was still able to kill off his last guy before the end.

Lots of fun, as always, Jason! Thx for the game.

If it comes in at all (and I'd vote yes), it should probably come in at the start of a new week.

I'd vote no. Simply because why change it 7/8 the way through? Keep it at least until the playoffs. Then leave it up to the players who make the playoffs

Week 8 Pairings are posted.
Only DarkDrakul and I don't have a match this week.

However, for the next week, the only match to be played is between Mando and me. Therefore, I'll be contacting Mando this week to see if we might have the flexibility to play that one this week as well, which will allow the playoffs to get started sooner.

Have fun!
