Final Victory Tournament Format

[Alexb83]

They weren't left in hyperspace - I simply didn't put them on the table. And I was docked points for doing so... even though technically I had gone in with 4FAPs instead of 5

For this particular style of tournament I would be happy to say that if you withdraw all your remaining ships and leave the ooponent in control of the battlefield - he wins - 20 -0 - you get to keep your ships for next battle but have effecitvely surrended the field to him.

also means more violence and explosions on the board - which is never a bad thing................ Normal tournaments I don't withdraw ships - ever. This one I did beacuse it was a war of attrition.

Personally I prefer a purely VP-based method. Something like this (simple version):

Win by : VPs gained (winner/loser)

0 : 10/10
1-10 : 12/8
11-20 : 14/2
21-30 : 16/4
31-40 : 18/2
41+ : 20/0

It certainly stops the silliness of marginal wins sometimes giving 20-0 and of massacres but one fighter fleeing giving 17-3.

i really like that system because in my last game after about an hour it was obvious i had lost badly but there wasnt enough time for my opponent to get a massacre. it would have been better if there was something still to play for (however small)
