  • Capital under siege! Using a secret hyperspace route the Separatists have launched a massive assault on the Republic capital world of Coruscant!
    Under the direct command of General Grievous and Count Dooku, Clone forces are pushed back and unable to defend the planet. Although the planet’s defense force was caught off-guard, commanders quickly re-organized their fleets creating several different sector battles. As Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker attempt to rescue the kidnapped Chancellor, Jedi General Luminara Unduli protects the skies from an approaching fleet commanded by Mar Tuuk.
    This episode was filmed in July 2021.

    Wow, that’s the biggest armada battle I’ve ever seen! I know that you’ve already done a This is madness tournament (which was lots of fun btw) but this battle was truly madness! Good idea keeping squadrons points capped. Amazing season final episode, great job. The biggest game I’ve played is a paltry 750ish RItR final battle.

    Another awesome Batrep! Damn... Damn that was some serious destruction on both sides. I dig how you limited the squadron amount to keep this a Fleet battle. The 'urban" map really does look great! Biggest game has only been an 800. Remarkably it only took about 2.5 hours or less. There were no squadrons but I reckon it would have made little difference. I think with some house rule limiting squadrons larger games are more feasible. Congrats, get some rest.. cheers!

    A major, if not the major, deciding factor in this game seems to be the CIS player not getting shots turn 2 while moving all his ships into range so that the GAR would get a round of shots, that momentum seemed to only accelate going further to the game.

      Thank you, Holden. Glad you enjoyed this one - it was a beast to film and play! Even at this point level, we still opted to play with standard objectives. Perhaps if we were to do a future thematic battle, we might limit these choices (or create a new "scenario" objective).

    Reminds me of the time back in 2004 when we managed to put together a 10,000 points-per-side Battlefleet Gothic game, although we had four players per team for that one and played on a 4'x16' table. Gloriously excessive and silly.

      @@IONRadio Our big BFG game took about as long, maybe 9 hours all told with a lunch break. Really got decided somewhere around five hours in when a couple of key rams and chained ship explosions crippled one flank of the Chaos fleet, after which they just couldn't come back from it. They were real smart about disengaging cripples all game and it helped them keep it it to a marginal Imperial win. Not sure all eight of the folks involved would have been very happy if it had turned out to be the equivalent of a 10-1 bloodbath like you had, but thankfully it was close fought for us.

    I am new to the game, but a few questions, it seemed like a lot of ships only fired out of one ark for one shot rather than 2 arches, and it wasnt just for the patriot fist.
    Secondly, how were all the black dice being used at long range? I thought focus fire only allowed to fire another color that was in the pool already rolled.

    • @IONRadio
      @IONRadio  Місяць тому

      Thank you for watching! In a lot of cases, the black die being added at range was due to Swivel-Mount Batteries. This is an upgrade effect, not concentrate fire.
      As to firing out of only one arc (instead of two) likely this was due to positioning and a second shot was not possible.

    • @IONRadio
      @IONRadio  Місяць тому

      Yes. Swivel-Mount Batteries let you "add 1 die of any color from an adjacent hull zone's armament to your attack pool." The only time range is checked relative to the dice color is when you form the initial attack pool.
