Whew, finally finished painting my Alliance of Kurak fleet for FSA! I have my first games tomorrow, and am hoping that my Dystopian Wars background will serve me well for the basics of the game. I'll be bringing everything I have, which means I can play between 500 and 1200 points, even if its not the optimal list. Here's what I own:

-Sorylian Battleship (Swordbreaker) x1
-Sorylian Battlestation (Phalanx) x1
-Sorylian Cruisers (Skyhammer) x3
-Sorylian Frigates (Scythe) x6
-Terran Cruisers (Sentinel) x2

You can see pictures of it all here: http://andygomez.wordpress.com/2014/02/08/firestorm-armada-fleet-finished-terransorylian/

Since my opponent is kind enough to run the demo game(s) for my benefit, I'm not sure what size or how many games we'll be playing, but I was thinking of the following 500 point list:

Battleship with additional shield: 190pts
Three cruisers with additional shields: 210pts
Five frigates, no upgrades: 100pts
(TAC Cards: Drives to Maximum, Peerless Engineers)

And an 800 point list:
Battleship with additional shield: 190pts
Battlestation with extra PD: 190pts
Three cruisers with additional shields: 210pts
Two (Terran) cruisers with +2" MV: 110pts
Five frigates, no upgrades: 100pts
(TAC Cards: Focused Repair, Charter Legacy)

Any thoughts? I'll post about the games afterward!

Yeah, it was a lot of fun! We ended up tying +8 to +8 on the Battle Log - after 7 turns. I threw a bunch of pictures up on the blog. It was bloody - a re-enactment of the old Aquan vs Sorylian wars of the distant past...
