So I am probably very late to the party. Here is what I am talking about:

You can enter lists and pit them against each other with a basic AI. Aside from the fact some upgrades are not factored in (such as Palpatine) and some pilot abilities aren't integrated (Hera can't change her maneuvers) Do you guys think this is a good tool?

For instance, I lost Poe Dameron(from a Poe-Hera-Zeb list) to a slew of bad dice on Saturday, but after racking up almost 10 games on the simulator, he lasts a lot longer with "average" dice.

This is incredible!

Someone did a lot of work to make that, it's great! I wonder how long until the shadow of the Mouse Empire crushes it, though.

It's definitely a blast, good for a fast practice game or two.

I agree with swordbreaker - this likely won't last long before the House of Mouse puts its boot down on it, sadly.

Not sure large ships take damage? Was running a computer on computer with a VT-49 and a YT-1300. VT-49 ended up by itself and while other ships were destroyed, the VT-49 never took damage (despite taking hits)

It has been online for almost a year, I think, and it's not making any money at all. I think it's safe from M-Mouse. Unless they want to buy it.

It has a few weird issues, but I can attest big ships take damage - killed a Dash with my Decimator with 5 hull remaining at the end

He's usually very responsive of bug reports on his blog, so you can always report those there. He needs us to be as precise as possible, but that's a small price to pay for such a good resource.

There's a lot of glitches, like I almost killed myself with feedback array 6 times in a row I go in for the range one kill shot and end up doing damage to myself. Bit it's still way fun and a lot quicker and easier than vassal

He responds to bug reports on his blog and tries to fix it rather rapidly. Just contact him (you need to have a blogger account, though) and he'll address it.

Interesting, though apparently the AI doesnt do U-Boat Jumpmasters well.

No, it fails catastrophically every time. He's working on it. I wanted to try some tactics against it and I've been stuck in limbo.
