ECC ARR

All,

A great time at the ECC.  Kudos to Jon and Indy and all the other
volunteers
in organizing the event!  

Great times were had by all.

Friday Night Pod racing was a very fun event.  Junk was flying
everywhere, pods
flying through the air and landing on other pods, pods leaving the table
at
close to warp speed, pods hitting hills 100 yds in the air.  Wow. 
Luckily no
one targeted my little pod and I managed to get through the twisty
course unscathed
but a little behind the leader.

Saturday morning was FMA Pirates!  A well run game with multiple
factions all
with their own goals.  Nimble Jack the pirate a former center from
Lesceter
United was able to make the mad dash under fire with the chest of loot
and get
off to the boat.  Unfourtunately he left 3 other crew and the captain. 
The
Lieutentant did not mind that and welcomed them back to the ship in fine
fashion.

Can-Am FMA.  A good tight battle in a small facility.  The US moved
quickly
through with the goal of swatting Maple Leaf troops.  The Canadians went
through
the walls in their quest for the mission goals.  The latter proved
effective
as the time limit left the Canadians in control of the majority of the
missiion
points.  Pvt "Weasel" Wasserman managed to end every movement in
overwatch and
not be seen by the enemy at all.  Grenades proved dangerous if you were
in hiding.
Great stuff, now if only there were finalized FMA rules I am sure
everyone would
buy multiple copies <G>.

Great time everyone, thanks for the hospitality and the good gaming. 
Looking
forward to next year where I might actually get around a Formula Dé
course.
 (Maybe FMA Dé next year <G>).
