urban jedi defeated darthmaim 2-0 (197-83)
I won the map roll so he got to take the right.
Rd 1, I traded the lancer for his fodder and 10-20 damage on most of his guys.
Rd 2 he failed evade, fprr, shields, evade and one of his echani jedi died to the ig86 who had come around the bottom to get an interesting line.
Rd 3-5 was just me strafing him again and again and again. His shields on his echani were keeping him alive and it was very slow going as there were tons and tons of attack/save/rerolls, etc.
The timer ended with me up 197-83. He had farfalla (about half health) and arca ghost left, while I had a 10hp lancer and a 10 hp ig86 to go with sid, grievous and some fodder.
My rolls were off the charts almost the entire match while his rolls (especially the important ones) were awful.
The gizkas provided some early door opening shenanigans which allowed the huge rd 1 strafe.

This game report is mostly irrelevant as I suspect most of the tournament players were lurking in VASSAL watching us, but I'll write it anyway. UrbanShmi's squad seems like it was designed specifically against Hero of Endor squads, between the Interdict cancelling Versatility and Booster's CE granting free shots against anyone who dares to move out of turn.
Round 1: Everyone moves forward, I almost make the same mistake as Trevor did and forgot to Roar at Leia, but Chewie just barely caught up to her in the middle of the hallway. I get gambit due to Luke and the Nexus in the centre. The singular Porg asexually reproduces all by himself. 10-0
Round 2: The Rebels crowd into the Gambit room and the room above, while the pirate Wookies set up a firing line to the west. At the end of the round Teethree opens the door and a singular Wookiee tries to take some shots, but the odds were too high (3720 to 1, to be exact). More Porgs for me! 20-0
Round 3: Chewbacca declares he is Loose and smokes Teethree. The Wookiees attempt to shoot Luke in the centre, but miss against his 25 defence, triggering [3720 to 1] again !! This is the point that I would have lost the game due to my poor interpretation of the rules, but I was assured that the Cloaked lasted until the end of the round (!!) when I thought it was only a phase effect. Luke performs a pre-emptive strike against Sarro, leaving him on 30hp while Luke is pulled back to safety. The Breachman kicks the door down, dealing 10dmg to Sarro. Leia takes a shot at Sarro, who Evades with a FP. Sarro charges in and Brutally attacks Luke, who is saved by the bodyguard Chewbacca. Booster casually dispaches the team mascot (Kneesaa the Brave, may she be remembered forever), and the Wookiees pile in. Gambit for both of us, 36-12
Round 4: Shmi finally wins an Init. Leia takes a Suprise Attack which misses, and Sarro does his best to scrap R2-D2, who survives on 20. Luke gently pushes Sarro over and Artoo runs (wheels?) for his life. The Wookiee Scoundrels fire on their kinsman, who Evades until an attack misses and C-3P0 can /severely/ reprimand the scoundrels. Johun runs in only to be Parried, and gets promptly eviscerated by Han and Chewie, who Cleaves into an unfortunate Mouse Droid. Booster runs in with gun (singular) blazing, dealing a whopping no damage to anyone. Sidon Ithano pulls out an RPG and blows 20hp off C-3P0 and Leia while hitting Booster for 20. Other things happen as well. Round ends 108-22.
Round 5: Once again, I win the initiative and Cleave two Scoundrels with Chewie (who is NOT a jedi). Booster makes one more incredible miss against an adjacent enemy, and all the Rebels are cloaked once again. At this point the game turnied into more of a horror movie, with her pieces unable to see mine so all they could do was run, so we decided to end it there. Final score 130-22, possibly supposed to be 230-22 depending on the forfeit rules.
Another game falls victim to the infamous VASSAL dice. Thanks to [was it Randy?] who pointed out that C-3P0's cloaked lasts for the whole round (!!), which is an unfortunate match-up against a swarm of low-attack, many-attacks Wookiees. Still, without an immediate miss in Round 3, Shmi could have actually attacked which would be helpful for winning. Good game, and good luck for the rest of the tournament! I think that your match win is a 2 pt victory.

We just decided not to play it out. It didn't go to time, but the outcome was clear.

When you have a single Scoundrel attacking at about +10 against 25defence characters who get cloaked if you miss, there's not much point. I offered her a chance to throw a last Grenade at everyone, but that would only have killed 12-pt C-3P0 and leave her entire squad vulnerable to [Cleave]...

gandalf defeated Hi-Fives 203-65 on Theed Palace (3-0)
I won map roll and we both had the same map, so Jordan set up on the left in the street. I had Shaak Ti in the gambit room with the Nexus and Holocron.
Round 1, I won init and went first so as to get the last activation (since we both had 12). Jordan moved up with some difficulty as there always is when playing Large and Huge characters, keeping the Rancor out front. At the end of the round Shaak went 14 spending 2 Force and hit the Rancor for 80. 10-0
Round 2, Jordan won init and Boba got off the Rancor. The Rancor attacked Shaak; she made 3 Makashi saves but failed Clamp so was stuck there. She finished off the Rancor. Boba and Fennec executed Shaak for the unprovoked killing of their pet, and an Ugnaught smashed her Holocron. We both moved around some guys, and the R3 Droid locked the right door to gambit so Doombot couldn't fly through. I towed Yoda up to the top instead and took out one of the Gamorrean Gladiators. 76-56
Round 3, I won init and let Jordan go first (as I wanted to tow Yoda over his squad to kill Fennec). That could have been a big problem, as the other Gladiator tried to avenge his fallen comrade by cleaving through Doombot and Yoda, but he needed a 3 and rolled a 2. That allowed me to carry out my plan, with Yoda flying over and taking out Fennec. Boba tried to avenge her but got a crit reflected back in his face and otherwise rolled poorly. Jordan's fodder started whacking on Doombot and eventually took him out. Ima Gun-Di killed the remaining Gladiator. 138-65
Round 4, I won init. Yoda went after Boba, who successively failed two Parries, and then died to a crit on the Force Attuned LS Throw. The rest was just clean-up until I got to 200. One of the Beast Handlers did end up Jolting Yoda at the start of round 5 (failed 2 rerolls) but by that point it didn't matter.
Luck was certainly not on Boba's side this time, so we will be feeding his remains to the Sarlacc.

gandalf defeats urbanjedi 214-110 on Theed Palace (3-1)
I won map roll and picked Theed. Jason deferred so I chose the right, and ended up not summoning anyone with the Nexus.
Round 1, I won init and towed Yoda into an "unstrafable" nook with Doombot. Jason moved around a bunch of his grunts and all my other people hid like chickens in the back rooms. After outactivating, Jason sent in a Lancer and took out Doombot with a regular attack, hoping to win init and get to do more damage or fly away.
Round 2, I won a key init and Yoda made quick work of the Lancer. Shaak Ti came up to take Doombot's place, which required opening a door to some of the rest of my guys. The Holocron switched over to Yoda. At the end of this round the other Lancer came in and strafed a Loth-cat, Ugnaught and Ima Gun-Di.
Round 3, Jason won init and the Lancer finished off Ima Gun-Di and another Loth-cat, then hid in one of the back rooms in my starting zone. With a Loth-cat, the Holocron's movement and Force Attuned, Yoda had just enough movement to get back to the remaining Lancer and Assault to wipe it out. Shaak Ti opened the door to gambit, and the IG Droid sniped my Spaarti.
Round 4, I brought Yoda and Caleb up the board and back into the action, and Shaak Ti into gambit next to the Nexus. Grievous and Sidious both moved up. The IG-86 took some shots at Shaak and put 30 damage on her, then retreated and was surrounded by blockers just above gambit so I couldn't get to it. I did however get the first gambit of the game. (Up until this point most of the action was on my half of the map.)
Round 5, I won init and just gave a Nexus force to Shaak. Jason moved some mice, then Yoda went in and opened the door above gambit. I moved Caleb into gambit and Shaak Ti wiped out one of the Gizka roaming around the map (another one popped up). The IG came into gambit and got pawned to put some damage on Caleb.
Round 6, I won init and Caleb whiffed both attacks on the IG. The IG killed Caleb, and got pawned by Sidious to hit Yoda for 40, then retreated out of reach. Yoda jumped over some guys and hit Grievous four times for the kill.
Round 7, I won init. Yoda did 60 to Sid, who stepped on his holocron. Shaak missed an Ugnaught. The IG moved back around to another entrance.
Round 8, Shaak killed the IG and Yoda finished off Sid.
It's always slightly terrifying playing against Lancers, but losing both in the first couple of rounds before they did any damage to my main 2 attackers made it hard for Jason, who nevertheless played expertly to get his point after initial bad luck.

thereisnotry defeats Lightsaber 219-45 (3-0) on Anchorhead
We had the same map and I 'won' the map roll, so Thomas chose to set up on the right. I set up my people in the top-left corner. We both used Versatility to change our Leias and Hans. However, our SA choices were different: he chose to keep Accurate Shot for both of his people, while my Leia chose Cunning and Han chose Opportunist +20. Evil Luke set up in the middle with the Nexus.
Round 1: I won init and let him go first. There wasn't really a lot that happened here, other than my Chewie remembered to Roar (to wound my Leia) and evil Chewie forgot to. My R2 locked the door on my side of the gambit room. Evil Luke was positioned menacingly. 10-0 for Thomas.
Round 2: I won init and let him go first. Kneesaa advanced. My droids also advanced, opening the door on my side of gambit...and their devotion drew Leia toward them. Evil Leia advanced so that she'd be near evil Chewie and pulled evil Han and evil R2 into the main room. Evil Chewie roared this time, so evil Leia was wounded. My Han then stepped up to hit evil Chewie for 50dmg after evade. Sabine then kamikaze'd herself in to put 40dmg onto both evil Leia and evil Chewie with a big grenade. Evil Han deleted her. My Leia took a reckless shot vs evil Luke, but missed (cloaked for everyone, but I didn't care), and then pushed both Chewie and Luke forward. Chewie then moved up to kill evil Chewie and Cleave into evil Han. Evil Luke then gave up an aoo to Chewie (20dmg, failed block) and attacked my Luke. What ensued was a rather complicated Djem-So-Twin battle, which result in my Luke being alive with 20hp. My Luke then activated and deleted evil Han. Gambit and init. 135-45 for me.
Round 3: Thomas won init...evil R2 missed my Chewie by 1, and then my Chewie killed evil Leia and put heavy dmg onto evil R2. My Han then stepped up, hoping to kill both evil R2 and evil C-3P0 since they were the only two targets in sight. However, evil R2 made both of his evade saves. Porgs procreated and Kneesaa boldly charged forward. My Luke then dispatched evil R2 and Kneesaa. The rest of my people crowded into the gambit zone, surrounding 3P0 with menacing intent. 197-45 for me.
Round 4: I won init and Chewie killed evil C3P0. 219-45 for me.
Mirror-matches are always challenging. That Luke battle was awesome! The big Sabine kamikaze move ultimately proved to be the difference, because it enabled my Chewie to kill evil Chewie, which started a cascade of damage. Thanks for the game, Thomas!
