finalized Tournament list

so i've settled on this as being my list.  now i just gotta go through and make sure its all painted.
I've highlighted the things i take a credit for fielding;
1 Credit for fielding a Grav-cannon on a unit that has Relentless; because Veteran Sergeant Haas gives his unit Relentless while he's alive.
1 Credit for fielding 1-2 Drop Pods
1 Credit for fielding the 1st Company Task Force
So my total credit cost is 3 for this list.  Triple checked both files to be sure Red Scorpions didn't get nailed for anything besides Sevrin Loth and Dreadnought Halar.

I dont know the points values of all the stuff but it looks good to me!

Also the colors were a nice touch lol

why do your vanguard have only one lightning claw for the mooks?

they're only 5pts each!

Points restrictions meant I could only afford 2 out of the 4 basic guys to get them.

Played vs my CAD Greenwing. Got the basic maelstrom missions.

I got to pick table edge and ended up sitting on 2 objectives and a short 6" move from another 2. Mike got one and was in position for another.

Mike seized. Moved up and shot me up a bit. No real damage. Haas's sqd dropped in on one backfield obj.

I moved up, took the two obj and popped his rhino.

His other pod and vanguard came in piece meal over the next 3 turns and got shot up each time. Haas was stuck in combat and was slowly getting whittled away. Terrain was a big factor as the large hill/building in centre meant fire lines were narrow. I was getting good draws, and Mike not so much. Called it after 3 turns with me up 8-1.

Overall, I like it. I'd def trade one Rhino for a pod, stat.

Not sure how the point diff for those Vanguard vs naked Sterns in a pod matches up.

The Lascannon devs were lighting me up til I narrrowed down their field of fire.

I'd be inclined to go Demi/Stormwing, but that's me.

Jeez, Beau, for all the bad luck you've had with dice over the years you sure are making up for it in the card draws.

Yes, the cards have been kind as of late:)

I played Jordon on Saturday and we played the mission where you only draw one the first turn and as many as you control objectives on subsequent turns. First card I pulled (with first turn) was take all objectives and score D3 + 3. So I promptly took all 6 and rolled a 5. 6 points on the first turn. Drew 5 cards next turn and scored all of them as well. Needless to say the game didn't last long.

Sorry, Jordon!

Drawing Cards isn't rolling dice, therefor Beau is a force to be reckoned with!

i think we can all agree, that in order to keep the status quo everyone is comfortable with, we must clearly never allow beau to play with cards.  make him roll the suggested D66 method in the BRB to choose his cards for him. no more shuffling a deck; he cheats! he cheats!  lol

Nooooooooo! No dice!!!!
