got my squad submitted to a third party. Everyone participating can send me their squad & map. Note that the map choice doesn't need to stay the same for each round, just the squad. So if your squad works better on another map based on what you build into your squad,feel free to change it from round to round.

Are we using the new map list or the one we used at Vassalcon?

wasn't there something about being 1pt short in one round and allowing +51 in the next round? I don't see it in the first post

It was changed. Now you can bank up to 10 points in the first two rounds

Wow - that absolutely has to be updated in the first post.

This is all very confusing. Can we get a finalized ruleset? I'm basically having to start building from scratch

we adjusted the rules to allow you to bank up to 10 points from round to round so that people can get the higher cost minis if they need to or a couple of mid cost ones to help counter things better or adjsut your strategy.

I see it now - it's still confusing the way it's laid out

I'm not confused! And I am ready to play! it should be fun. I tried to build a beginning that has different ways it can go! We shall see how it develops! I look forward to the squad reveals on Wednesday! I still have to beat FlyingArrow and Thereisnotry. They are my self proclaimed rivals now.

glad to have you join and thanks for being the 8th player! No bye weeks this tournament which will be good. You just have to send your 100pt squad in for round 1. Don't be too set on what you are playing next round until you see what others are playing and what matchups you will be having in the future. You might just need to make adjustments to counter what others bring with those extra build points! 50-60pts can go a long way to giving your squad the tools it needs to win.ThumpUp

**ATTENTION all Galactic Escalation players**

I've uploaded an update to the Vassal mod.
Basically, some of the maps on the new maplist (which is being used for this league), were a pain in the neck to find on the old Vassal module. But fear not! I've fixed everything. You will need to download the new module in order to play in this league.

Go to the last page of the SWM Vassal module thread to read that post, in order to understand the changes in the new update.

And then use my OneDrive link (https://1drv.ms/u/s!AlCd5BRrzxGChsg6lQr6Pv3sFyEZcw) to download the new mod.


Yes, this unfortunately means that you'll need to re-save your squads again, because they won't work with this new version. I'm sorry about that. But I think you'll like the changes! ThumbsUp BlooMilk

I'm still just shocked that the nightsister players didn't go Separatist.

I was very strongly considering it, but I just couldn't do it. Didn't want to be that guy playing night sisters AGAIN.

Still 1/4 of the field went nightsisters, but nobody went the route of making EPIC MAUL INTO A NIGHTSISTER!?!

I'm a bit stunned
