Tournament Report - 1E - Online Event

KlingonBlock Sealed Sept 2013
Introduction
I signed up for this tournament since I am still relatively new to the online arena, especially with 1E, and I thought that a sealed tournament would be a good way to dip my toe in the water and maybe get an achievement or two in the process. After some technical hiccups (that I still can't explain) and help from Daniel Matteson, my Klingons were up and rolling.

Round 1KlingonDerrick MarshFL (-60)View opponent's Report
Basically a mirror match, Derrick was able to get bigger ships out earlier than me in order to battle. I was able to sneak in after he cleared Intercept Sleeper Ship and steal it, but he then stole Impose Order points from me. I was just stupid at the end when I got confused reading the dilemma resolution guide which led to me forgetting to dock my ship and then it being blown up next turn. I might have had a chance had that I just remembered to say "docked."

Round 2FederationChris MorseFW (+15)
Chris pulled Feds and was working a lot with the ambassadors. We kinda stayed on our own sides of the board for most of the game and my Klingons were able to squeeze past for a very close win.

Round 3RomulanMatthew TingFL (-35)
Matthew's Romulans were running on all cylinders. I really had no chance to keep up with Matthew's pace. I had too many problems drawing my free-to-play guys which led to my demise.

Round 4FerengiJohn Paul VeaseyFW (+65)
John was playing Ferengi, and honestly, I was running scared through the whole game assuming he would come en masse to attack me. That never happened but there was some interesting interaction. His Bok was able to capture my Jean-Luc Picard which I thought was pretty hilarious. In the end, I was able to mass-attempt missions and get the win through sheer number of personnel.

Closing Thoughts
A very fun tournament that taught me a lot about 1E. Plus, I get the TNG Klingon achievement! Huzzah!
