We're back! In this new episode, Wesley and I go over the new (but old) skirmish map rotating in for IACP, the Tarkin Initiative Labs. We also talk about the current progress of the IACP Season 8 Community Makes the Card event, Wesley's current Edge of Oblivion Campaign playthrough, rules questions about how exactly Assassinate works in IACP, and profound and insightful question about complexity in IACP from a listener.

TheSecondFlock is flying solo this week without TVboy, but he's brought a guest along. Brandon aka Irnkman started playing IA back in the day but sold his collection before the game was completed. Now he's back to dip his toe into the IACP version of the game and share his thoughts as someone looking in from the more casual side of things.

We go over the recently announced Community Card Design Process for the upcoming Season 8 of IACP coming in April of 2023. Well at least TheSecondFlock does as the 2nd half of my audio recording got corrupted! Thankfully he did most of the talking in our main topic because I'm' still fighting a nasty chest cold that makes it hard for me to talk. But at least I get to talk a little bit about some of my experiences trying out the Imperial Commander 2 app for the first time and replaying the Lothal campaign years later after giving it a low grade in my previous tier ranking video.
The vote for the first Week of the design project is coming up on January 27th, so make sure to get your idea submissions in before then!

In this 2 part episode, we take a look at the current stats for IACP Season 7 after 2 tournaments and 1 competitive league. This data is based on 35 tournament matches and 57 Vassal game logs that were sent to me by our players, for a total sample size of 92 games.
We got a bit into the weeds at the end going into individual card win rates and popularity, so I've split up the episode into part 1 and part 2, with part 2 going into the most popular cards in each faction.
