Atari XEGS video game system at the Evercon Side Quest event in Rothschild Wisconsin last month. The Atari XEGS was the last Atari 8-bit computer, stylized as a video game machine. The idea was that between this system and the then-new Atari 7800 and their glut of legacy software support, they could reassert Atari into the video game market Nintendo had taken over in the late 1980's. It didn't work, though not because the machines weren't any good. The game here is "Return of the Jedi" which in this level has the player pilot the Millennium Falcon at the battle of Endor.

So despite all logic and reason, I somehow took First place at the Sub Zero Shootout WolfNet 350 Alpha Strike Tournament.

All told I was one of four people competing so I don't feel I did anything too impressive. We had three 80 minute rounds.

Here were the Early Republic Clan Ghost Bear Omega Galaxy Forces I took.

Here was my competition, all painted up by the same guy.

Round one was Capture the Flag. This one was a loss for me, but it was mostly due to some particularly bad rolls.

Round 2 was Overrun. This was a victory for me, mostly by way of objectives. Although I was particularly proud of overcooking my opponents Stormcrow Echo to the point it could no longer move after taking a motive hit. Unfortunately I didn't reallt take any good pictures once we got underway.

The third and final round was domination. I won this match by way of objective points and fighting like Marshall Zhukov. It the end of the match all I had left was my Balac attack helicopter but I had successfully removed all of my opponents fast movers rendering his force irrelevant.

I'm still surprised and confused that I won.

I celebrated with a meal of Shrimp and Cheddar Grits.

As far as lesson's learned goes... Perhaps taking that Eldingar was unnecessary, I didn't take it to field once. Then again I mostly took it as an insurance policy against C3, which no one brought. I will also say once again Heat weapons are BOSS. While they don't necessarily do all that much damage, they do certainly help you dictate terms and make your opponent sweat out the decisions they have to make.

All and all good times and fine dining

To close out, here was the coolest dude at EverCon

Tell us more about Evercon! He sounds really interesting!

shore!

this is evercon! he’s my oldest oc i think but he’s basically an orphan on this alien planet called quichel, and his story revolves around his search to find his sister. him and his twin brother were separated from her and have been looking ever since.

he’s really kind but extremely stubborn and is a “do first, think later” kind of person. he’s capable of flying/riding the wind for a short time (its MY character and I get to choose the RIDICULOUS CAPABILITIES) which is very in tune with his personality/story; following his heart wherever life takes him, but getting easily blown off course >:3c oh the symbolism!
