Was a fantastic tourney, a good weekend all round and Twilight Imperium was intriguing to say the least. So many deals, double deals and almost deals lol
As for ACTA itself, the 1pt Armageddon seems to be pretty good.
First game against the Vorlons, I go my head handed to me. Onlt just managed to flee a few Light raiders off the table to prevent it being a 20-0 whitewash. Well done Reaver. Well played.
Second game against Hash and his Cthulhu Shadow Ship. Good game, and very unlucky for Hash. He reduced my Mothership to 1 Crew point remaining in one volley from his Shadow Ship while it still had 3 light Raiders to launch. A gamble that almost paid off. Well played Hash.
Game the Third versus Burger. This game was all about the crits, with one of Burgers ships scoring 7 crits out of 9 hits. But the crits worked in my favour too, with one of his Leshath exploding and causing a 4-6 and a 6-6 crit on his Shantavi. That was the turning point in the battle for me.
Good game, made better by the fact that I didn't fail a single stealth roll EVER. Pretty sure Burger was unimpressed with me after this game :lol:
So second place for the Drakh. Definitely getting a feel for the fleet. Can't wait to see how they'll perform in 2e what with the new beam rules.
Oh and thanke to Tenacious B for running the whole thing. Well done that man.
