Luminyrkki 2015 X-Wing Turnaus Santeri vs. Christer (Kierros 1)

Pori Xwing is a Finnish channel that occasionally publishes X-wing battle report.

The playfield is well covered and with a very good quality video only the ambient lighting may be over saturating the far edge of the playfield.

The hosts do provide a commentary track that seems to be pretty steady but as its in Finnish i couldn't comment any further.

Star Wars X-Wing Miniature Game - Squadron Building - I Sinistri "6"

The Italian channel "La Vipera sul Tubo" explores list possibilities.

SZ-Wing Trainingsfight 9 (X-Wing)

The German language SZ-Wing channel produces their first video using the Scum and Villainy ships released recently.

this game features a double IG-88 list take on a Z-95 mini swarm backed up by Kavil and Torkil Mux.

Unfortunately they haven't provided their lists for this game so I cant be 100% sure which of the IG-88's were involved. I'm pretty sure they were B and C just because B is the obvious choice and it looks like they're getting the free evade tokens for boosts. the only way I know Kavil and Torkil were involved is because the Y-wing moves after the IG's and Torkil because they were checking for range two at the beginning of the combat phase.

With regards to the actual video quality the room is poorly lit with the major light source being the other side of the play field creating a back lit effect over most of the game pieces. Also due to the poor lighting evade and focus tokens are almost impossible to distinguish.

X-wing Thursday game

The Its Athing channel uploaded a couple of videos some time ago and they went dormant until uploading this video with Wave six releases.
The video quality is very good considering that there is no 1080p option on this video. The table chatter between the players is interesting although with a lot of pauses and colourful language can be difficult to ignore.

LXwing: Double Y-Wings For Scum and Villiany

Video coverage of a store championship in Italy which was broadcast live over google hangouts

The video quality is as terrible as you would expect from a stream and the audio quality lives up to the same standard.

Nacional EspaƱa 2014 - Final

Finally the Spanish Rojo Cinco blog uploads the video coverage from the Spanish national tournament held back in September.

At the time this particular match made some pretty big waves throughout the community as it was largely believed that there were only three viable list formats in the wave four meta, those lists being derivatives of the fat Han list, TIE Phantom lists, or TIE Swarm lists.This final of a national tournament having been help in the interim between the US national tournament and the World championship surprised many when the list that won featured the HWK-290 as the squadron linchpin, However at the time further information was pretty scarce. word of mouth informed the community that the squadron featured Roark Garnet, Airen Cracken and two blue squadrons however further details were a bit fuzzy and the only sources were Eye witness testimony.

Anyway six months later the video finally surfaces (with very little post production work so I guess the delay was due to having a very busy schedule) so take the time to check it out.

NYC X-Wing Store Championship Part 1 of 3 @ The Compleat Strategist

The NYCXWing Team have been pretty quiet for the past few weeks and now we see why. They've come back from their sabatical with newly reworked title sequence and a logo. They also seem to have worked considerably on their commentary delivery, now with a more natural conversation and a lot let pauses and Ummm sounds.

X-Wing SCUM vs. EMPIRE

A new channel pops up with a battle report showcasing the new wave six expansions. Video quality is passable but considering that there's no HD version the gameplay is pretty easy to follow.

Audio track however is just star wars background music.
