'''Wynn Goddard''' was the [[Solaris Games]] [[Class Six Champions|Grand Champion]] from [[3057]] to [[3058]].<ref name=MWGtS7p64/>

==History==
 
==History==
Hailing from the [[Capellan Confederation]], as of [[3051]] Wynn Goddard was fighting for [[Tandrek Stables]] and ranked 3rd in [[Top 20 Unlimited Class List#3051|Solaris Top Twenty]]. Bitter rival with [[Jason Bloch]], Goddard seemed destined for a championship fight against either Bloch or the O'Bannons sisters ([[Elizabeth O'Bannon]] and [[Tanya O'Bannon]]).<ref name="SOLARISGMBp24">''Solaris VII: The Game World – Gamemaster's Book'', p. 24, "The Top 20"</ref>
+
In [[3055]] Block was fighting for [[Tandrek Stables]] and ranked 4th in Solaris.
  
While many considered him a MechWarrior past his prime in a field dominated by younger warriors, Goddard won the Solaris VII Grand Championship in 3057. Though he had been long ranked the number three warrior on Solaris for several years running, many derided this achievement, citing that the aging warrior had been "gifted" the championship because the previous holder [[Kai Allard-Liao]] had opted out for that year.<ref name=MWGtS7p64/>

He is a bitter rival of [[Jason Bloch]], and seems destined for a championship fight against either Jason Bloch or the O'Bannons sisters ([[Elizabeth O'Bannon]] and [[Tanya O'Bannon]]).<ref name="SOLARISGMBp23">''Solaris Gamemaster's Book'', p. 23, "The Top 20"</ref>.
  
Many observers and spectators predicting that he'd be yet another single-year champion, Goddard silenced his critics and proved his mettle in [[3058]] when he soundly defeated all comers and took the championship again. Coinciding with the ''[[Xin Sheng]]'' revival of the Confederation, his second victory seemed prophetic. Goddard ultimately chose to retire after he was defeated in [[3059]] without another fight, choosing to go out while still on top.<ref name=MWGtS7p64/>

==Tactics==
 +
'''Wynn Goddard''' is notorious because his relutance to waste ammo on difficult shots, using instead his lasers. At short range he will use SRMs, and he keeps his LRMs in reserve for particularly promising shots. This is a solid tactic but can be dangerous against opponents with good long-range weapons or exceptional luck.

Goddard was notorious because his reluctance to waste ammo on difficult shots, using instead his lasers. At short range he used [[SRM]]s, keeping his [[LRM]]s in reserve for particularly promising shots. Chipping away at his opponents slowly at range while keeping his heat low, Goddard's tactics were solid but could backfire against opponents with good long-range weapons or exceptional luck.<ref name="SOLARISGMBp24"/>
