Star Trek Attack Wing 3rd Tourney

Third Tourney pictures



My Three Bioship list


Close but no Cigar













Other Bioship fleet

Star Trek Attack Wing unofficial 143 vs 120 or 123 fleet (rematch set)

 A Set of Pickup games soon to be re-fought as they were a bit over matched 3 ships versus 4 ships


I like the idea of pitting the blue target locks on the back of my ships -
 picked this up over at another tournament











Should have activated my QS and jumped out with a level One Pilot 
discretion is the better part of valor




This rime I was able to pop out and come back in from behind ambushing the evil Ferengi allied fleet

At the end we figure out Brian had abut 20 to 23 extra points - 
So a rematch is in the offing at some point in the future
But since he had driven all the way from Conyers I did not feel too bad

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone Black Friday early shopping too!



Sorry no Turkey is complete without some Pumpkin pie served courtesy of the Headless Horseman



We hope you enjoy a day filled with pumpkin pie, power naps, football, family and friends 

Dallas Cowboys VS Philadelphia Eagles 4:30 PM
perhaps some war games too!—though not necessarily in that order. 

And of course last night was the classic 5 hour presentation of Gone With the Wind on AMC

Star Trek Attack Wing 4th Tourney

    The only Game I won in the Green Nebula facing Borg







Enterprise and Bioship allies focus on the Massive Cube




Result a humongous explosion




Although within a few minutes The Bioship ally is gone 
and 
Kirk escapes death with the Cheat death card


Not pictured is Khan Singh who was constantly blown up throughout the games
 in spite of Joachim being at his side

Khan on the Yeager would be a nasty combination

It was a fun crew not pictured are games against James and Alan who both
destroyed the Borg/Rebel fleets I ran
