yes this is the last round, then we'll have semis and a final.

I just played my game with Deathwielded. He conceded after I killed his Cad Bane in the 3rd round.

We played on my map (Bothan Spynet) and he chose to set up on the right. After setup I dropped GARY for the Sled, which shot his Peace Brigade Soldier twice (via the Imp Officer's CE), which blew up, killing a Zonoma Scout (which had Stealth via Ooglith Masquer), which blew up, killing a Worker, which blew up putting 20dmg on Cad. I lost the next init, so DW's GASFT intuitioned up to double attack, but he barely missed both attacks, so my Sled survived. I charged in to base Cad and hit the first attack, but then rolled a 3 to miss on the Imp Officer attack, so Cad lived with 30hp. I managed to pick off a few of DW's reinforcement pieces toward the end of that round and the beginning of the third. Then, in the end of the third round I charged a Snowtrooper up to base Cad; DW's Worker hit with a 19 on an aoo, but I made my poison save. That allowed me to make the killing shot on Cad, after which DW conceded. 3pt win for me, 200-24.

Ultrastar just beat me 37-14 on Asteroid Base.

And Ultrastar ran Cad/Talon/Thrawn/Lobot/Ozzel.

It was a really boring game. The only thing keeping me from nodding off was the fact that Bronson is a cool guy and I was eating lasagne. Basically every round I did lame stuff and then Bronson swapped in Cad to kill stuff, then intuition next round, then outactivate and do the same. I couldn't beat his door control and tempo control while not being able to swap around Talon. It would have been an even longer, more boring game if we had gone over the 75 minutes. Thank God for timed games.

*NOTE* I'm not trying to be a sore loser. Sorry if I come across as a little kid packing a sad because he lost a Star Wars game.

Yeah, that's what I thought.

theultrastar tends to think QUITE outside the box.

Just got my game in against mando

I was running Durge, lancer, sideous and poggle bombs against his Shakeal vong squad.

I won 86 to 66.

we played on Rhen Var

I brought in an MTB and it was just hard for the melee gong to keep up with the lancers. I've not really seen a game with such biased save rolls. I made all mine and he failed all his. I was even hitting with geonosians on his squad. Still his gong stuck it out, killed the lancer and most of my drones but Durge was able to kill off enough points to keep ahead. Mando played well and the Tsaos limited the lancers effectiveness but then the bombs didn't really have any disruptive to worry about and so did the major damage against the high vong D.

I thought that my squad would be able to make damage stick quicker than it did but the vong are nothing if not stoic and the game ended with Shak still with 60 hp left chasing Durge around.

Thanks for the game, dude!

Sharron and I just had our as-always EPIC match! I won 200-12 but don't let the score fool ya.

He was running

--Winter is Coming--
62 Obi-Wan Kenobi, Jedi Negotiator
38 Anakin Skywalker, the Chosen One
27 Lobot
20 Captain Tarpals
16 Dr. Evazan, Galactic Criminal
16 Qui-Gon Jinn, Force Spirit
9 R2-D2, Astromech Droid
3 Mouse Droid
3 Rodian Brute
6 Ugnaught Demolitionist x2

(200pts. 11 activations)

While I had

--Cane and Able--
63 Darth Bane, Sith'ari
54 Darth Caedus, Sith Lord
30 Vergere
17 Marka Ragnos, Dark Force Spirit
14 Exar Kun, Dark Force Spirit
16 Sith Recruit x4
6 Ugnaught Demolitionist x2

(200pts. 11 activations)

First round was positioning for both of us. I decided to "turtle" in the second round to try and build up some Force Points on my spirits, Bane and Caedus. Sharron moved into gambit and waited..... The brilliant part of his squad design is using Dr E to HS30 twice on someone and then use Qui-Gon to win initiative and do it again. 120 auto damage is had to deal with! I had given Caedus VCA so unless I failed 3 saves, he couldn't kill him (plus, depending on FP's, I should be able to Aing-Tii and kill him). In the middle of the third round I made my move. Caedus used his battle med twice to move Bane up, then bane made an 8 square Leaping Assault to get next to the good Dr. I hit both attacks and the Dr failed his Avoid Defeat save. That was probably the game deciding moment. If he had have made the save, Bane or Caedus were getting hit for a lot of damage and the game would've tipped in Sharron's favour. Sharron almost took out Marka, DFS using Quiggy and after failing his FPRR, a recruit was destroyed to keep him in the game! He then used Obi to attack Bane as Marka was too far away to provide Illusion. Obi hit twice and Bane Djem So'd him back both times with overwhelming for 80dmg. Vergere healed Bane and some other pieces were moved or spun and R2 flew Obi out of the fray. Round four and I won initiative, but Sharron used Quiggy to take it. He ran Anakin next to Bane and popped Dark Temptation. Hit the first, but Ani failed the illusion save. Hit the second and bane was down to 100HP (failed both Djem so saves). Ani moved away and Bane hit him for 40 leaving Ani on 70 but he made his DT save. I healed Bane and used Caedus to go after the Klat he had brought in with Lobot. Sharron flew Obi back in and hit Bane for 30 but he made his Djem save and used overwhelming to finish him off. Bane leaped next to Ani and used overwhelming again to kill him and at that point Sharron conceded. Sharron is a great player, a stand-up guy and I'm proud to call him a friend. We always have truly epic battles!! Good luck in the Semi's mate!!

It is always epic :D it just seems you have the run on me, I can't seem to beat you!! Thanks for the game man you played very well :) good luck to you also. And I hope I meet you in the final ;)

NPE vs NPE. NPE for the win!


Seriously, though. Great write-up.

The official Star Wars™ Miniatures SWMGPA (Star Wars Miniatures Gamers Players Association) floor rules say this:


Standings
Standings in a tournament, for declaring a tournament winner, shall be determined by match points. In the event of multiple players being tied for match points the following shall be used to determine the final standings:

1. Match Win Points – The player with the most match points. (Though here in the US we use 3/2 system, and obviously NZ and this uses the 3/2/1 system)

2. Match Win Percentage – The player with the highest match winning percentage. (In other words, record)

3. Completed Victories – The player with highest number completed victories during the tournament (games in which 3 match points were achieved) (3 pt victories)

4. Head to Head Matchups – The player who has won any head to head matchups would be ahead of the loser in a head to head matchup.

5. Opponents Match Win Percentage – The player with the highest opponent match winning percentage.

Thanks for walking through that, Tim.

Congrats to you top-4-ers!
