Jody Lamb (joedlaw) Tournament Report - 2E Standard 2011-03-27 - 12:30 PM Some hands are just forced... Introduction I needed to put the threat out there for Regionals... It was important that others are informed and understand that Battle is something they need to tech and consider when building for the Fargo regional. I love Baht'qul Challenge, Hurried Departure, Call to Arms, and my AWC!!! Km'tar is good stuff too! :) Round 1 John Western FW (0) This game was over early on... My dilemma's kicked a whole in his crew and i was able to Kruge his ship, but instead I just toyed with him. Kind of like "The Cat and Mouse" routine... I eventually solved my two mission's and collected my bonus point's before he could rally the troops. Round 2 Jerad Berhow MW (0)View opponent's ReportView original Report This was a good game, once again. Lot of event's on the table in this game.. Queen's Borg Cube is immune to retaliation from engagement when parked at my HQ. Go figure.... Game strategy?! Solve a planet mission, run home, play Baht'qul's x3, and wait it out... it worked too. I wanted to blow his ships up or Kruge them, but I didn't quite have enough fire power. I knew Jody would probably try a decent battle deck between now and regionals. So I cannot say I was surprised at all. He pushed an early first mission to gain a lead. I got some quick points with Queen's Cube as he hid at home. He soon shutdown the Queen's Cube with A Few Minor Difficulties. I shut down the Delta quad klingon ship quite soon after with my own event. I came back a few turns later to Two of Nine his event to get my ship back online and steal Alexander Rozhenko off the top(a very nice catch indeed). Now he had Kruge out which forced me to hold back some on my mission teams. I had Enough out to staff 2 ships and drop his range by 4 with 2 hits so he was waiting for more ships. It was a good stale mate with me pressing several turns on my planet due to Uninvited(soooooo good BTW). Finally I pressed through as time came closing in and his Weirdly spelled challenge bonus points gave him a good edge. I tried to press my final mission and couldn't score the mod win. he pressed for a full but Tactical Disadvantage was my all-star once more. Round 3 Allison Berhow FW (0) This game was brutal for Allison... I stranded her peeps for a few turns with my dilemma's... Kruge'd her second ship. My dilemma pile was running smoothly and she was losing personnel left and right. She's a good sport though, she played it out... even though she knew it was over after the ship shenanigans.
