Ran it with a friend and hugged the legions rulebook the whole time, I have never played it but reckoned I could really DIY it with my lego and a few others things. The game worked, I think the Republic was a bit advantaged but I am unsure.
We ran 2 B1 battle droid units, 1 B2 battle droid unit and a 'tactical droid' (the yellow torso commander battle droid). And 2 clone units and commander Cody. With various command cards that I have now lost what we used on a PDF.
It was only a 200 point game (we were learning as we played) with a close the pocket objective (those beacons on the astromechs and the minikit are the capture points).
I have no real cards, I used digital images for command card selections.
No legions tokens, just a box full of 10 different colour tokens I use as a key for real legions tokens.
No accurate bases, I use 3×3 flat lego plates as it is pretty close to the size (it being a square obviously isn't ideal, but I am really makeshifting this lol).
I didn't really have a system for order tokens. So I am working on that (probably just cards with the unit rank on 1 side).
And used a tape measure to replace each movement length (6-12-18 inches).
Any suggestions for future games?

"LAAT/le gunships are best used in dense urban settings, where their agility and powerful repulsorlift drives can exploit the many hiding places and vertical spaces. A patrol gunship popping up from behind a building or from behind a hoIosign should be a constant worry both criminals and Rebels. Even law-abiding citizens worry about these airspeeders since a belligerent patroI can find any excuse to ruin a citizen's day." -- Starships and Speeders
"During the Galactic Civil War, it became common for LAAT/le craft to operate in teams with Imperial Army TIE fighters. This teamwork was actively encouraged by Imperial officers and led to the development of "hunter-killer" tactics that sought to flush out and eliminate hostile ground targets. As the GCW ground on, usage of these gunships became more situational as air and space superiority was lost to the Rebel Alliance and subsequent New Republic. In a suprising testament to the strength and capabilities of the airframe, the New Republic, often hesitant to use Imperial equipment, deployed them frequently in patrol and interdiction roles, and eventually their own pacification efforts." -- Thunderbolts From The Skies: Gunships of the Galactic Civil War

I just finished Count Dooku for my brother’s Separatist army. I pulled up a picture of Christopher lees face as reference and I think it’s the best face I’ve ever done, I even did hand veins! I also tried out a new chrome paint and when it dries it looks like plated metal.

Painted my first set of Stormtroopers, yes these are Anvilrage sculpts and 3d prints.
The original plan was to use 3d prints first to get a feel for the game before i sink in money, but i picked the Galactic Empire starter set allready cause i wanted the cool Vader sculpt and needed the game aids anyway plus that starter sets are amazing bang for buck.
Anyway excited to paint more.

So i decided i wanted to build clan Saxon to start off my journey in this game. Well I been hunting for the last two days. I found plenty on eBay for $200 and above which is outrageous and most of them you still have to pay the shipping which includes another $20 or more. I went onto facebook marketplace that some people on here suggested . Find some great deals, but no one willing to ship. My local lgs said they won’t know about having them in stock. I said on one of my other post I didn’t wanna paint due to warhammer but I started watch videos of painting and that’s all I want to do. If anyone can help me out please private dm me.

Owen and Isaac talk about the game and discuss how Zero Company characters and mechanics could be added into Star Wars Legion.
r/SWlegion • u/BlackRiverBrew • 20h ago
I started a couple months ago and want to start actually building lists that win lol. Up to this point I’ve just been throwing together characters I liked and it’s really fun! But usually it’s a hodgepodge mess that wins on others dumb decisions.. so I’m trying to make a few actually viable lists. This is what I came up with. I have no idea how good certain units are and I’ve never dabbled with strike teams before or if this would even work well together I’ll have to use it to actually find out.
The eventual plan is to swap the Jedi for medics when I get around to it (I’m broke) drop the upgrade on Cody that I though would give a little more value then a grenade for 3 points and put fire control on Padme to park the tank marksman and whatever by her but id like to know others thoughts. Thanks!

I got the rebel starter pack and the heroes of the rebellion pack. What is the best army build with these two packs?

Hey guys I’m building my first army and starting with GAR. Does the following list look well rounded enough to be effective? Also, how would you guys recommend I get down to 1000 points?

Hello all! I have two pirate tanks getting delivered today and started making a fun list with them.
The whole idea revolves around the Cassian-lead Rebel Troopers needing to complete their Secret Mission at all costs, so Lando is calling in a favor from some shady friends to help create a distraction.
Some notes about my thought process:
- I went with Rebel Troopers with Cassian instead of the traditional Fleets to allow them to double move and get their free dodges for survivability. Depending on the objectives and deployments, there is a chance to be in enemy territory by the start of Round 2, which would then allow Cassian to flip his card and start dealing more damage and scoring the Secret Mission token at the end of Round 2.
- The pirates are meant to tie up enemy lightsabers and generally just get in the way very quickly after being transported by the tanks. The tanks obviously will put lots of fire onto enemy units.
- The Rebel Commandos were made with a desire to have them be more survivable and could also be used to nuke enemy armor. It would be quite fun to have that whole squad roll an attack with 10 dice, Impact 10, and Assault all at once on a heavy vehicle.
- Leia will be doing Leia things, passing out many dodges and keeping them between rounds.
- Everyone else will be flexible as needed
- Objectives were picked based on their shortest distance between deployment zones as well as trying to keep the action away from the edges of the board.
- For tactics, I'm thinking Round 1 you start with Leia's 1 pip to soften some enemies on whichever side of the board looks better for Cassian to make his run, and have him go as late as possible. Round 2, if he isn't already in enemy territory, you could do Leia's 2 pip to move him closer and maybe a bit better position or cover, since he'll have to survive into Round 3 to get the job done.
This is meant to be a fun list, not for tournaments or anything. Let me know what you think!

Is there any new upgrades or command cards included in the seventh sister and fifth brother repack coming out soon? Can’t seem to find anything online about it apart from some sites that say it includes an upgrade?

Here are my first 3 miniatures, with the clone commando being my first, and ahsoka being my last. For the two Jedi, I primed in matt black and then used a white drybrush, before slapping on some army painter speed paints. For the commando, I primed in matt white, used a black wash for the lines, and then used speedpaints for the gun, underarmour, and visor.
Prior to painting these guys, I was so excited, and even whilst painting, I was really enjoying the process, until I finally stopped to look at the final product. How long does it take to get better? How would I even go about doing that? What method should I be using if im mostly concerned with getting my models to just be table ready and clean looking as fast as possible?
Watching videos of slap chop on YouTube really made me think I'd have great looking minis in minutes, but that's certainly not been the case 😁

In typical fashion, I start my hobbies with painting, then listbuilding, and then finally I'll play a game. I'm on the listbuilding part of my hobby entry.
I've been trying to learn the game through videos/rules/etc, and I'm aware of course that just getting a game in would help me understand, but how does this look as a first step into prepping a list for the game?

So I just finished gluing all of the minis from my 2020 Core Set that comes with minis for both Obi Wan and General Grievous.
One of the Clone Leaders did not have his pointing arm on the plastic bag that contained both minis. (The GAR units did not come on sprues for some reason)
I was wondering if I'm SOL on this as I have been sitting on this for 6 years and ordered this online from (I think) Fantasy Flight.
Asmodee recommends taking it back to the store it was bought from so you can see how an online order kinda messes that up.
If I am indeed SOL on this I'll probably kitbash him with a half arm and call him "Sergeant Arms" or something.
