X-Wing Battlereport - Dogfights im epischen Ausmaß

The German Game on Tables Channel gives a full battle report on a pretty huge Epic game, but no epic ships in sight. Just watching this game makes my back feel stiff.

As far as production value goes they did a pretty good job of covering a play field so big by using two static cameras at either end of the board. The commentary also does a pretty good job of keeping a steady conversation.

X-Wing Batrep: 300 Point Epic Battle

The Daily Dail having finished their tournament training decide there's nothing more relaxing than a nice short Epic scale game,

X Wing Batrep 13 - Arcanacon XXXIII Epic table

This is an interesting Video from Fly Casual. At a convention 8 players got together to play a huge team epic game. A game so big they couldn't fit it on one screen. Four playfields lined up side by side to make an avenue of space warfare. All in all a four hour game is compressed down to about 15 minutes. The timelapse format makes sense here as it isn't so fast that you can't follow some of the game but a game of this size would be too complicated to follow through a video, I suppose you really would have had to be there.

A good video.

A German language huge epic game with a ton of ships on the board, Even with time-lapsing through the activation phases the video is still over two hours in length, and a high level of German will be needed to follow along with the action.

A Photo slideshow summary of an epic game. Some good quality closeup pictures.

A three hour epic game condensed into a five minute time lapse most notable for how many people it took to play the large game(even by epic standards). Theres not much to see here really as the game action is too small to actually know whats going on, the host has a few vignettes of the action more closeup on his channel but still not much to speak of. The video in question here is more like watching x-wing being played over CCTV for those more voyeuristic amonst us.

Score: 5/10

X-Wing Battle Report 333vs333

A timelapse batrep produced at such a high speed that theres not much reporting going on, its more like a stop motion animation of a battle. No commentary is provided so depsite it being filmed in germany all audiences will get the same experience. Image quality is pretty poor which i suppose has more to do with trying to fit an entire epic play field on screen than anything else, maybe also a slight improvment of focus would have helped. no information is provided in regards to the lists or pilots involved in the game so viewing can be a bit tedious but at least its over fast.

Score: 6/10

Battle Report ;Star Wars X-wing ( incl.the corvette )

This is a casual batrep of a team epic game played between four British guys. The host has shot the video on a mobile phone as round summaries, that's to say that at the end of each round the players give a brief summary and discussion of each rounds play. This is an interesting format but gives little insight into the actual game played.

Shooting video on a mobile phone is touch and go at best, the focus is often very muddied and the voice of the camera operator is picked up fine on the microphone but anyone else more than a foot and a half from the device are much lower in volume making it a bit difficult to make out everything being said. A dedicated video camera if available would provide a considerable improvement to image and sound clarity. 

Even so this is an example of how easy it can be to put out a batrep for x-wing, in the case of a standard dogfight this type of summary can be very effective.

Score: 6.5/10
