The Black Moon Star Wars Hybrid Game League!
Hey folks! If you’re like me, you love all of the amazing Star Wars games that are on offer from Fantasy Flight Games right now. X-Wing, Armada, and Imperial Assault, all great stuff! But don’t you wish there was a way to play all three games in a competitive league with your fellow gamers? WELL NOW YOU CAN. Starting MARCH 1st introducing the first official Black Moon Star Wars Hybrid League! It’s easy! It’s fun! It’s competitive! All you have to do is sign up at the store counter. For every game of X-Wing, Armada, or Imperial Assault you play, fill out a reporting slip noting who played whom, and which player won, and place the reporting slip in the provided box. Playing any of these games will be worth one point; victories are worth two. Your friendly League Organizer will keep track of the games, and who is winning what and will post the scores online/in the store. At the end of the League, the top players for each game system will win some sweet Star Wars swag, with the top overall player winning the grand prize! It’s awesome, it’s fun, and it’s a Star Wars Bonanza! More info on the league and league rules forthcoming, to be posted below.

Rules So here is the tentative ruleset for the Hybrid League.
The League will run from March 1 to May 1, 2016. Players may play any number of in-store games of Star Wars: Armada, X-Wing, or Imperial Assault as they can. Individual games will be tallied and scored each week with report slips submitted to the official tally box (a lovely, decorated cardboard box which will be kept at Black Moon Games). Players should make note of how each game was scored, and what scoring conditions were met on each individual report slip. A chart displaying the players and the number of points they've scored each week will also be kept, updated, and displayed online in this very forum thread. Playing in sanctioned FFG tournaments at Black Moon Games counts for the purposes of scoring how many games you've played (and won) each week!
Scoring: • Play a game of X-Wing, Armada, or Imperial Assault: 1 point
• Win a game of X-Wing, Armada, or Imperial Assault: 1 point
• Play 1 game each of X-Wing, Armada, and Imperial Assault in one week: 2 points
• Play 1 'Epic Play' game of X-Wing: 2 points
• Paint 1 or more Imperial Assault miniatures in a week: 2 points
• Play 1 game of Armada at 800 points or more: 2 points
• Play 1 game of X-Wing, Armada, or Imperial Assault in Star Wars costume/cosplay!: 2 points
• Bring an actual cast member of any Star Wars film (including the Ewok movies) to Black Moon Games and play a game of X-wing, Armada, or Imperial Assault with them: 6 points
• Demo a game in-store of X-Wing, Armada, or Imperial Assault for someone who has never played that game system before: 1 point
• Play the same named, unique character in two or more of the three different game systems in a single week, 2 points
Important note: points are cumulative, so for example, if you play an epic sized (2) game of X-Wing (1) and win (1) you've scored a total of 3 points for playing one game!
If you've painted an Imperial Assault Miniature and/or are playing a game in costume be sure to post an image on this forum thread and/or show a Black Moon staff member or the League Organizers (me) for verification and to show off your talent!
The League will begin March 1, with signups at the store counter. There will be cool prizes for participants and the overall winner! Please feel free to suggest additional, somewhat reasonable scoring rules in this thread. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you, and may the force be with you! -JW
