Map: Obi won the map roll so we played on Throne Room; I deferred, and he chose the right side.
This was a really bad matchup for me, and it was back-and-forth the whole way. In the first round, I towed Rex to shoot at a Pilot, but I missed 3 shots (needing 7s). GOWK and the diplomats stepped up to block off Obi’s access from the top to the place where I had set up in gambit. I managed to safely kill a couple of Pilots, either by the use of Distraction or by giving them nobody to shoot at except for an unactivated and un-adjacent GOWK, so I was doing fairly well. But then a Pilot did 50dmg to GOWK on a deathshot (failed SSM and both fprrs), after which GOWK kept taking damage until he was down to 10hp and 0fp. He died shortly afterward. Meanwhile Mace took down a Pilot, who missed both of his deathshots vs Mace’s 26 def. My R2 died, and then his did the next round. We kept trading pieces until it was my 10hp Rex and 110hp Mace, sitting in gambit. Obi won init and shot with the Klat Capt vs Rex, but rolled a 1, and then both Mace and Rex made their saves. Rex returned fire, but Obi’s evades were 75%, so Mace had to run up and finish him off. Obi’s Spaarti then finished off Rex, and it was Mace-vs-The-World. Obi rolled a 20 for Reserves with Yularen; I expected that he’d bring in 2 more Pilots for the auto-win, but instead he brought in 2 Gungan Artillerists (misreading the Cestas, thinking that they would activate non-droids…). My saves were really good for the most part until the end, when I ran out of fp. During that time, Mace took his time, dropping Yularen, then Panaka (crit), then Padme (crit), and finally Obi’s last Spaarti and a Diplomat. I was now at 199pts and Mace was just outside of gambit, with 10hp. The next round, Mace walked into gambit where Obi couldn’t draw a LOS for a final Cesta shot. The dice took some big turns throughout the game, with Obi doing epic fails on his SSM saves and Obi rolling incredibly hot for his attacks for a while, and then his attacks were 5s ans 1s, while my saves were solid. Thanks for the game, Obi!
I won a nail-biter on gambit, 204-136.
Confirmed. Nothing more frustrating than losing to a 10 HP Mace sitting in gambit. Good game, and it would have been more different had I not rolled so awful in the beginning of the game. Your evade saves were really good with Figrin Dian, which wasted a pilots turn to try and finish it off. I shouldh ave brought in 2 pilots with my reserves. Hindsight is always 20/20 i guess.
