Greetings everyone!

This post is announcing this year's 6th Sunday Regional! Creatively titled:

AUGUST SUNDAY REGIONAL!!!


ALL ARE WELCOME, regardless of geography!!!


Please let me know in this thread if you plan on playing. I'll have a running list


August 22, Vset 22 focus!

Every squad needs a minimum of one Vset 22 piece.

No requirements beyond that. If you want to make a squad with all older pieces and throw a Vset 22 5pt Pirate Breachman in you technically can, but we’ll all think it’s lame. Squads I’m personally considering are ones where there are multiple Vset 22 pieces or if it’s only 1, it’s significant and changes the squad dynamic.

Really the bottom line is this is a good excuse to see Vset 22 in action in a tournament setting (beyond the sealed VassalCon tourney).

Map list has not changed as of yet, so we’ll stick with the same restricted list we had at VassalCon




Additional request - Have a Discord account! It is FREE! It is super handy! We can all chat in the main room between games. You can check out other people's games if you finish early (and hear them talk!)

Not required, but strongly encouraged!


Squads and map selections can be PMed to TimmerB123 anytime after Thursday August 19th (I will PM a neutral party my squad before then). Please send squad link, copy/paste of squad, map, and DISCORD NAME (with the # and 4 digits)

*Registration ENDS August 22nd at 11:30am central time (please save your squad on vassal beforehand for efficiency)

*Rounds begin promptly at 12:30pm central time (1:30pm Eastern).

{Please gather in Vassal and Discord by 10 minutes before the hour}


Gameplay in each round will last exactly 75 minutes. Each player is responsible for timing their own games. Players are expected to set up and be ready to start at a reasonably fast pace to keep the tournament moving.

Number of Swiss (initial) rounds depend on number of participants.
<8 = 3 rounds, cut to top 2 (or just straight 4 rounds of Swiss, decided based on numbers)
9-16 = 4 rounds, cut to top 4
17-32 = 5 rounds (very optimistic here), cut to top 4


There will be a break after round three, unless people want a break at another time.

Legal Map Lists will be:
Bothan Spynet
Cantina
Outlaw City
Rhen Var Citadel
Ravaged Base (Commander's Office)
Starport District
Starport Terminal
Throne Room
(The restricted list maps, all available on Vassal)


ALSO NOTE: Players will be responsible for knowing all errata, floor rules, etc. (Including the latest changed to rigged detonators! http://www.bloomilk.com/Forums/default.aspx?g=posts&t=31469)
Changes can be found here: http://www.bloomilk.com/Forums/default.aspx?g=posts&t=20395

This will be an official Star Wars™ Miniatures SWMGPA (Star Wars Miniatures Gamers Players Association) sacnctioned event. The SWM GPA Floor Rules will be in effect.
(The Star Wars Miniatures SWMGPA (Star Wars Miniatures Gamers Players Association) Floor Rules and the Star Wars Miniatures Game Rules should be read and understood by all players wishing to compete in sanctioned events. All SWMGPA members participating in SWMGPA-sanctioned Star Wars™ Miniatures events must abide by these rules.)


Those playing:
TimmerB123*
thereisnotry*
UrbanShmi*
Udorian84*
Darth_Jim*

* = Squad submitted

I'm in too.

Anybody else?

I'm in. Squad sent.

I feel bad making it an unwieldy 5, but maybe someone will enter late and make it 6.

The more the better! I was hoping since so many picked on that poll thing that we would be up to 8 or more. Now I have little chance to escape Timmerb and Thereisnotry.

25 minutes left before registration is officially closed. (But who am I kidding, we'll take anyone that wants to play up until start time in 1hr 25min.)

But let me know asap if you think it's even a possibility, so then I'll hold off posting squads for a little longer

Registration closed, squads posted

I was a little worried when the first 2 squads entered were Angral. Glad the rest were not.
