Imperial March - March 28, 2015

Carbon Freezing Chamber

For the first time ever, we finally picked the Carbon Freezing Chamber!!!  This duel happened after a seven week break, so folks were ready to throw down...the results were:

12.  Simeon - Boba Fett
11.  Kristin - Emperor Palpatine
10.  Mackenzie - Jango Fett
9.  Alex - Obi-Wan Kenobi
8.  Elijah - Luke Skywalker
7.  David G. - Yoda
6.  Molly - Darth Maul
5.  Ryan - Anakin Skywalker
4.  Curtis - Mace Windu
3.  Rob - Darth Vader
2.  Ian - Count Dooku
1.  Grant - Han Solo (and Chewbacca!!!)

Key Moments:
  • Alex twice used the force balance card to move folks around the board.  That put Rob in the back row with the Jedi and Kristin in the middle of those same Jedi.  And yes, Rob was Vader AGAIN...
  • Molly was playing her first 12-way Duel...and of course got Darth Maul.  Hence, Darth Molly.
  • Molly and Ian, also playing his first Duel, made a strained alliance. 
  • Ryan went in to kill Ian's Dooku, but wasn't anticipating the double taunting attack from Dooku, which ended up ending Ryan's duel.
  • Curtis saw the writing on the wall and flipped on his alliance with Rob.  Rob convincingly argued for Grant to take down Curtis first, which he did!
  • It got down to Ian's Dooku and Grant's Han and Chewey.  Ian force drained Grant's hand down to one card.  That one card left?  THE BOWCASTER!!!  On Grant's turn he shot Dooku in the face, POINT BLANK FOR THE WIN!!!
  • This is probably the most exciting win we've had in this league.
  • This was Grant's second win and Han's first!
