Well, here we are. The fourth day of school, the third of class. But first, we flash back to...last night.
MWDA funness, of course. As in, I won my first tourney, and even got a token fellowship vote despite my A, winning which excludes me from that, and B, my thinking that I was being somewhat of a dick the whole night.
This is nice to know.
The games themselves went like this: First one involved me stringing out the other army, chopping it to bits inch by inch, meanwhile avoiding the Behemoth tank waiting to obliterate me. This worked well. The second game, I got lucky on a charge and a capture, and though it was sort of iffy for a bit, I managed to pull it off. Third game, the other guy was using a whole bunch of mercs which REALLY strung out his army, and I flew around with choppers a lot and dominated.
Pretty sure I didn't lose a piece the entire time. That's a new record.
Best part? I traded off the Highlander Shadow Cat I won to Rema for a bunch of stuff, including Marat Deleportas the ubermech, a Spirit Cat Donar VTOL (very hard to get and very good), and a few incidentals like the great Kurita tank destroyer and transport. Life, it is good.
So then I stayed after for a big city battle. This was also fun, though Marat, my Crimson Hawk that dominated the tourney and I all sort of died in a hail of laser fire. But I got to see some really brutal slugging matches over my corpse, so that was fine.
Uh, except I got out of there at like 3 am. I have class at 9:30. Yeah. Feeling the love today. Adam, who was my first game opponent and one of the city players, and I have European Military together, and we're talking, and the gist of it is "Well, thinking we maybe won't do that again."
Yeah. No more of that. I was so out of it when I woke up, I had to pull the plug on my clock because I couldn't find the button. ;)
