Lucas Thompson (edgeofhearing) Tournament Report - 1E - Worlds Side Event 2014-08-17 - 06:00 PM Really lucky Introduction I got insanely lucky pulls from my starter and boosters. 4 law (including two Tuvoks), Paris, multiple cunning 8+ personnel, Villagers with Torches, AMS and two specialists, Scow and Debriefing, Navigational Hazards and Implication and Your Galaxy Is Impure! My first mission could relocate my ships, and my furthest mission could restore my range. Round 1 Kenneth Tufts FW (+35) Ken started poking at my missions pretty early, so I followed suit. He cleared his dilemmas a turn before I did, but Mission Debriefing + Scow meant that I solved mine first. I forgot about the relocation, and Tufts had seeded a 5 span mission between my outpost and my 4 span planet, but I had Stadi out which made my Intrepids able to make the trip in one turn. Then I sent a large crew down who passed implication, had no one die to The Weak Will Perish, and then passed Spatial Rift in one shot for the win. Round 2 Amber Van Breemen FW (+70) My game with Amber worked much the way my game with Ken did, except that I finished my outpost mission a turn before she hit the scow, so I got to relocate and attempt on the same turn. She stopped me once at the planet, but Scow + Debriefing once again secured the win for me. Round 3 Jason Drake FW (+70) This round was a little different; Jason was my first player to run S-P-P instead of S-P-S. I hesitated a bit over my dilemmas, then decided to just put everything under his space mission. Using my previous seed pattern gave up the chance of the lockout, and while this pattern left two missions unprotected, they were both the same icon. Jason Left my close mission open, so I sent my mission specialists out to solve it, and the range restoration helped them on their way home. Jason started moving his fleet towards me, and stopped to solve an empty planet - but only sent two so the Villagers got them. I sent my usual large crew to my planet and made it through all the dilemmas for the win.
