To be fair, he wasn't the only one!
My dice hate me

Everything, and I mean _everything_ for Sleeping in Light was pre-written.
Next time can you wirte me in the odd beam roll higher than a 3?

I think LBH needs a hug right now, as he is facing Gaim again with his ISA, and he is not too confident, despite him bringing the Tara'Lin to the table. . .
My second "Gaim" of the tourney, and 3rd ever, all against the same player, Richard Carr IIRC, but I don't hate the player, I hate the Gaim.

LBH is having a seriously Bad Dice Day. . .
Day....Weekend....Life, it's all the same.
Da Boss said:
sounds good - any other highlights!?
Is LBH having a better day?
How to put it? .......... no!
Da Boss said:
oh dear - he is playing Kens ISA - that could be brutal if Ken is on form :shock: and he usually is.
Yes, Kenny won, but was no doubt still robbed, and put to a VP win by LBH, the new mantra of Sunday.

how are they working out Iniative?
No bonuses, except for Command.
LBH has just got 12 dice on a Beam - says it is the most he has got all weekend. . . combined!
Sad, but True, which sucks on what is basically an all Beam fleet. An unbelievable cry was heard when the 12th hit rolled true from a 4AD BEam weapon on my Tara'Lin "I need more dice", Kenny was quick to supply a d1 (Or it might as well have been) :lol:

Stealing LBH's thunder - would like to point out that the Drakh ship which was destroyed had only two crew left from my opening (and final as it turned out) triple damage beamage!!
You shall not deny me my big kill, it may only have been 2 Crew, but it was 2 crew you failed to kill. I dunno, you want a job done right.....don't give it to LBH (Except in this case) :lol:

Round 7 The Free for all
I began along side Simon's Tinashi, LBH's Tara'lin, and Sharkaan. WE targeted Paul's Drakh cruiser and Ben's Shadow. We had worked out that my Gaim would drop the shadow ship's shield with emines and LBH would beam it, hoping for a pin. Things went well with simon scoring a tripple damage 6,5 crit on paul's Drakh, and LBH finishing it off. LBH then fired his front beams at the Shadow Omega! And succeeding in knocking down its shields.
They say plans don't survive contact with the enemy. Or in this case allies either.

I had a lot of fun. And I got to play Triggy, Digger, Burger, Richard and Ben who are great people to play.
I was disapointed to be on the side of order, since I would have been best against Minbari and ISA. And all the Minbari were on the side of order. And my worst foes were shadows.
Plus LBH was a bit of a handicap. :lol:
Was I so bad you had to post twice? :lol:
That was my biggest error (See my above comment without the exception this time), in my malfunctioning caffeine induced state I forgot that the original plan to shoot the Shadow Omega had been amended, however since I only scored 10 damge which were absorbed by shields, on the Omega, I wouldn't have hurt the Shadow significantly anyway.
Had fun, more on Sunday than on Saturday despite my continuingly cursed dice, played lots of people, lost all my games, made less errors in the entire 7 game weekend than I usually make in one game turn. So all in all despite the net effect of my ACTA career being to go from 2nd last to last, I feel good. My dice failed me, as seems to be their role in my life.
I held off Kenny to a VP win (somethign he repeatedly tried to proptest against, usually by resorting to counting the massive VP difference, which simply cemented the case for the prosecution :lol: ), and if Digger had stood and fought rather than running I'd have won that one too.
Looking forward to any future tourneys that we manage to organise. I may even paint minis for them.
My thanks to all, and especially neko for the lift
