I could've done a whole lot better, but I appreciate you looking out for me.

@Darnok Thanks for the commentary. A gutting result, but quite a believable one.

@Darnok Thanks! I like the new article a lot more.

This deliberate ignorance is really getting on my IRL nerves.

He's neither a criminal or a Padré.

How's it going to work? Round Robin and then playoffs?

@Darnok magic, thanks!

"You watched them crash and burn in Bastion! You saw them rounded up and shipped out by the Provosts! Now, prepare to welcome; straight from the dreaded Chateau D'Ouennes; Oleon's Most Wanted; the impertinent; the incorrigible; the unforgivable; and now under strict new management; It's the OCEAN ELEVEN (Eleven, eleven...)" Announcer at the Ocean 11's first BTSC 619 game. Well chaps, they're back! And this time the Abbé is in charge! Since player-coach Merde the Murderer went AWOL after the last tournament, his place has been filled by Robin the cabin boy. While the Abbé is a famed disciplinarian, their opponents are scum, villains and foreigners, and the 11 have been promised their freedom if they win. Therefore, they will be playing unfairly. You have been warned... A 3 M 1 D 5

@Darnok my only comment is that Robin is a player, whereas the Coach is Abbé François himself. Also, there's a girl on the team, but one of those could be her. Thanks for filling in the blanks for me!

@Darnok Happy for you to fill in the rest of my squad with appropriately French/Oceans 11-sounding names. I have already stated my team stats and playstyle preference. Thanks!

Completely agree. It was just the grey building a first, so I threw some colour in to spice things up. Then I added two aliens and the speeder truck, and suddenly it all got to be a bit too much...

And risk them running off? Besides, there's a lot you can do tactically with a good length of chain...

As of June 2020, Fnab has reached 78xp. After passing 75xp, his third skill will be Colonist.

Also, are speeder bikes distinct from swoop bikes? Are swoops the equivalent of drag-race machines?

@Darth Bjorn Oh, hold up, Speeder Bikes are ok? Hadn't realised that! That changes things!

@Fraunces Thanks! At the moment, I have high hopes they'll make it to the final.

@Bodi Thanks!

I have my team: The Ocean 11 have arrived.

@goatman461 cool challenge, thanks! How heavily will you be penalizing the difference between landspeeders, airspeeders, truckspeeders, etc?

@blackdeathgr appreciated! I was keen to make sure I represented the varied culture of the Great Alliance States to the best of my ability.

I have my team, I just need to get round to photographing them.

@MKJoshA Can you update the points for Fnab? According to his holojournal he should 23 points:

Of course what I didn't anticipate was that, during the assault, there would be a change of leadership among the Mordageen. Ramara Till was killed in the confusion, and her sister, Brenta Till, assumed command. If she had harboured any thoughts of betraying us, the speed of Commander Bannon's assault left her no time to do so. And so, when the dust settled, and I returned to their compound to conclude the deal, there was an added complication. Till's people were, reluctantly, willing to return my weapon collection, but they had no interest in the Twilek hostage I had for them. As far as they were concerned, she was Ramara's slave, and therefore untrustworthy. They couldn't have someone like her wandering around, so they left her fate up to me. All of this left me in a bit of a quandary. I'm not keen on keeping slaves. In a delicate diplomatic environment their use offends too many people to be a benefit. Still, I figured I would take Lu'vel under my wing for the time being. I'm not the type to leave her to the tender mercies of the Mordageen. I quite wanted Fnab to have a Twi'lek companion, since one of their cultural proclivities is towards diplomatic work. However, they are also one of the most commonly enslaved species in the Star Wars galaxy, and I didn't want to skip past the darker side of that life. I didn't want my Sig to be the kind to want a slave, but he is an Imperial, so probably wouldn't have a moral objection to it. In the end I decided to reflect his more pragmatic nature, and highlight the fact that if he doesn't keep slaves, it's because they are awkward in a diplomatic context. Lu'vel will exist in a bit of a grey area in terms of status; Fnab can't grant her manumisson because he was never her owner. But he will protect her from any other claims on her ownership, and you won't see her wearing a shock collar any more.
