Went to two Kessel Run events in Winnipeg.
I took 8 TIE Fighters in the first one at GameKnight. I had 4 Academy Pilots and 4 Obsidian Pilots for 100 points. There were four Rebel players and two Imperial players, including me. I lost my first battle against 3 X-Wings and a Y-Wing, won my second battle against Vader, Howlrunner, Mauler, and 3 TIEs, and walked away with a TIE Interceptor.
In the second Kessel Run even the next day at Mighty Comics, I took 8 Academy pilots for 96 points because I had issues maneuvering TIE Fighters with different Pilot Skills bumping into each other. Now I could always choose which TIE Fighter to move. I won three straight games and walked away with a Firespray-31. Much happiness.
Here's a video of the two events. Sorry, the sound may not be working due to copyright issues because I put Star Wars music in it. You need to click on the audio tab about the video screen to listen. Anyway, here it is:
