Great game guys! Love that you guys are keeping it positive and not bashing the rules refresh. Played my 1st game yesterday with new rules...holy crap was it fun! Non-stop action....lots of decision points, and you have to stay really fluid with your plan. Thanks again to Joe and Don who do such a great job of making clear concise points and staying positive through the new changes!
Thanks for going full steam ahead on these reports. I really appreciate the explanations of all the new rules for this almost completely different game.
I love watching your guys videos! This was the first channel I found when looking up Legion gameplay to learn. I back tracked and watched every video you guys have up for Legion. Great game!
Really digging videos with the new rules so soon after the release. So many people just down on everything without playing through the new rules. Keep it up!
This was great watching. Our group struggled on the table a bit last week when first tried 2.6.0 But after sitting back and watching a play through I feel more confident in this week's league night! Thanks for doing this!
I used to watch your Legion videos every week but stepped away from the game for a bit to play SWU. Now I'm back for new Legion and enjoy watching your videos again.
GG chaps. Really appreciate the effort in getting the New Legion videos out. Got our first game with the new rules this weekend and your videos are proving very helpful. Have a great time away both of you🤙🏻
Thank you for putting up these videos so quickly. There really helping me understand the new rules and coming up with some cool ideas for new lists. Thank you guys.
I recently had my first game with the new rules and it was amazing. I really like the new deployment and transport mechanic and ofc the new cover system. Lovely battlereport and I really like the LE Luke... such an amazing mini. Thanks guys for your continuing nice videoseries
Fun game, as per usual. Great work, guys, and thanks for demonstrating as many new things as possible. I appreciate how you sacrifice some of your own optimization (and therefore success-related funtimes) in order to do some showcasing. Oh, and happy birthday, Don! May the coming year bring you all the crits you desire.
Love it! Thank you :) Stayed up way past my bedtime last night to watch it when I saw this got posted, I was so excited to watch more new Legion in action!
thanks for the great report. FYI when you move you no longer have to end in the groove you can add a little to movement by just touching the end point. Keep the bat reps coming
I played my first game with the new system. It left a very good impression on me. Watching your first video with the new rules helped me learn them before the game so I really appreciate this content.
Thank you so much for explaining the new rules as you play. Helps me keep up to speed with things while going through some busy times. 🙏 Looking forward to diving deep soon!
Thank you for all the great content. It was fun to watch and to learn. The best way to adapt is to play or watch the new version. Thanks for making it clear.
That was an unexpected result, fascinating! Also, I really rather enjoy the after action review at the end of the the game. You really get a sense for what had happened throughout to get lessons learned.
Great video! It's nice to see the rules in action. This week, I've finally painted up the rebel troopers that have been sitting in my desk for months. I'm looking forward to getting some games in now.
Hey guys! Great game! Thanks! The exemplar rules did change. I believe mercs cant spend exemplar anymore. Has to be same faction or affiliation to spend the others tokens.
Double airspeeder would be interesting given the speed and ability for vehicles to take objectives. They also have cover 1 which can be enhanced with pilot selection. Thanks for thr time to play thru and the detailed discussions. They big units vs vehicles is an interesting test.
Great game and video, as always. I love seeing the improvements to characters and units. It really feels like they are trying to balance the game, while still giving each faction a unique feeling. Looking forward to more. Thank you.
Really nicely done videos on the new rules! Really good breakdowns at the end of these. I know you don't have one on this, but I'm making my own key word of the day: sad wookie noises 😢
Great video as always! Really liking the new slower pace and explaining the rules, picked up a thing or two. A single complaint, the music is a bit loud compared to the other audio.
Great report I like how you explains what's new and that you guys skip the negativity about the new edition, I'm not a fan of all the new rules but think there are more good then bad changes.
I would love to see an infantry based Tempest Force with the new rules played. That much Scout seems like it can be pretty wild. Thanks for the great games with the new rules! It has been very helpful with the added discussion about what has changed.
Thanks for creating these videos and your description of the changes - really helpful. I'm a bit in doubt about the cover rules, if you don't have LOS to some minis, which aren't within 1/2 range of the cover, how are they counted towards the 50% within / in cover?
If you have at least half the unit completely obscured or no one can see and get LOS then they have heavy cover regardless of the range away from the terrain. Thanks! -Joe
Thanks for the report ! I was just getting into and learning the old version when this switch happened, so I still don’t get all of the terms yet. If you are open to one suggestion, sometimes the explanations are coming out so fast that I get lost. there are times when I swear you are the guy at the end of radio commercials getting in multiple words per second…😆 But it may just be me trying to learn too much at once. Keep up the great work!
I’m still not sure Tactical/Agile trigger on the Scout move. The rulebook says they trigger on “standard move actions”, the Scout move is described as a “speed-x move action”. The wording here of standard vs speed-x is the same as before the rules change and was why tactical didn’t trigger before on scouting/climbing etc
Awesome content, as always, thank you for taking your time doing these and explain the new rules changes on the go. However, I am worried about Don, he seems a little off. Is he not enjoying the game that much anymore?
He is logging the game right now as well. Sometimes we film later then even normal do to kids and life… also he can get salty like we all do when things don’t go our way. We both are loving the new update. Thanks! -Joe
Out of curiousity, everyone all learning so I might be wrong. Isn't scan the surface just 1 VP? You need both units to score, but one total? Or maybe I read it wrong? I read it as the player scores 1 if they have two units with scanners, both outside deployment. But maybe I'm mistaken. All new rules means I'm not as confident. Either way, loved seeing Empire and Rebels! Thank you! Excited to see transports and armor in future!
How do you feel about Duck and Cover now. The cover changes, the suppression and panic changes, I can’t wrap my head around the value of the upgrade now.
I think it 100% depends on your faction and what you are running… I think double Jedi republic is fine with 8-9 acts. I think rebels want 10+. I think empire is happy with 10+ as well. Seps can go high or low depending on how many saber with push. Thanks! -Joe
When the Ewoks die, I always what the sad RotJ music in my head-when the one gets up but the other doesn’t. 😢 Related - why no ATSTs lately? Don’t recall seeing them in play on anyone’s lists in a while. 🤔
Love watching your new legion videos is making me think this new version isn't all bad. Droids still seem ops af though.... need to play my list first.
I have vigilance on leia, so I can make two troopers keep one dodge each if they are crops. Then each move now gives them a dodge due to agile. Thanks! -Joe
Great game. I made the mistake of playing this primary mission against Kashyyk defenders, not catching enemy can destroy bunker with the SF's. Wookie horde just rolled up to my bunkers and nuked them. Very quick game lol
I think the melee Wookie unit does not count as SF's in the battleforce for battle cards. The ruling in the Battleforce says: "The following unit counts as (Core) unit for the purposes of army building and battle cards : Wookie Warriors(Noble fighters)"
@Krashwire all cards that don’t have new still use the original cards which is the majority of the game. There are a couple cared on the errata document like reckless driver which have been removed. Thanks
My biggest issue with "New" Legion is 1,000pts and no bid... Not because I think either of those things are bad (quite the opposite actually) but because I'm having trouble filling out all the points lol
This new version is reigniting my interest in Legion, not gonna lie
I think once people try they will see it really helped refresh the game if you will. Thanks!
-Joe
HONEY WAKE UP, GREY SQUADRON POSTED AGAIN!!!
lol, thanks for watching!
-Joe

Thank you so much, and it is very action packed I feel as well.
-Joe
After watching the new rules, and playing about 5 games with them, I like the changes a lot! Keep up the videos!
As do we! Thanks for watching!
-Joe
Thanks for going full steam ahead on these reports. I really appreciate the explanations of all the new rules for this almost completely different game.
It’s an interesting feeling. Some feel very new and different while the rest feels like the legion you know. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
I love watching your guys videos! This was the first channel I found when looking up Legion gameplay to learn. I back tracked and watched every video you guys have up for Legion. Great game!

I'm kind of liking this "rules refresher" situation.
Great game, gentlemen.
Thanks for watching!
-Joe
Really digging videos with the new rules so soon after the release. So many people just down on everything without playing through the new rules. Keep it up!
That’s great
I'm really psyched to play the new rules. Was a little hesitant about it all until I saw your first video.
Thanks for watching!
-Joe
This was great watching. Our group struggled on the table a bit last week when first tried 2.6.0 But after sitting back and watching a play through I feel more confident in this week's league night! Thanks for doing this!
Thank you for watching. It does take a couple games like any other game to get it down. Have a fun game this week.
-Joe
I used to watch your Legion videos every week but stepped away from the game for a bit to play SWU. Now I'm back for new Legion and enjoy watching your videos again.

No problem
Great game as always! Thanks for going through the new rules so quickly!
Thank you for watching! Look out for another one tomorrow ;) thanks!

Good stuff as always GSG! Loving new Legion stuff
Thanks
I'm loving the new Legion matches!!! Thanks guys!
Thanks for watching
Thank you for all the great content. It was fun to watch and to learn. The best way to adapt is to play or watch the new version. Thanks for making it clear.
Thanks for watching
I nearly jumped out of my chair. Been dying for New legion content not 2.0 but 2.0.
Much more to come! Thanks for watching.
-Joe
On a Monday? Whaa I needed the pick me up. Great work guys!
We all do. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
We have to keep the new rules videos and the old rules cup videos going and figured the people want new!
@graysquadrongaming8670 I do. I got the gist of the new rules. The cover system I was iffy on. I'm excited for the new changes.
Pretty excited to see updated Commander Luke in action, he's gone from really vanilla to quite an interesting character I think.
He is extremely solid at a very low price now. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
That was an unexpected result, fascinating! Also, I really rather enjoy the after action review at the end of the the game. You really get a sense for what had happened throughout to get lessons learned.

New rules looking very interesting! Hopefully we can see how transport and armor work in the next video
That may be the next one ;) thanks!
-Joe
Great game guys. Really love how you've been explaining and showcasing the new rules. Looking forward to a match with
shadow collective present.
That video dropped today
Hey guys! Great game! Thanks!
The exemplar rules did change. I believe mercs cant spend exemplar anymore. Has to be same faction or affiliation to spend the others tokens.
It did change, it’s also only one token at a time. Thanks.
-Joe
No problem! Thank you for covering the new rules and showing the positives! @@graysquadrongaming8670
Awesome battle report! Thank you guys for this. One note: The scanner gives only 1 VP if you control both, not 1 VP for each scanner you control.
Yeah, that was our bad. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
Double airspeeder would be interesting given the speed and ability for vehicles to take objectives. They also have cover 1 which can be enhanced with pilot selection.
Thanks for thr time to play thru and the detailed discussions. They big units vs vehicles is an interesting test.
That is for sure. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
I am new to the game, but your videos reinforce my belief that this is a good time to start.
Thanks for watching
Thanks for the BatRep. Double thanks for the discussion at the end about what you were thinking.
We will do that soon
Great game, great between round music, very chill.
Thanks! Through so new stuff in this last episode as well to warrant the new rules.
-Joe
We want new legion videos to feel new
@@graysquadrongaming8670 Pump up the Jams!
Loving the videos as always, only channel I enjoy watching battle reports for legion on 🔥
Thank you very much!
-Joe
Great game and video, as always. I love seeing the improvements to characters and units. It really feels like they are trying to balance the game, while still giving each faction a unique feeling. Looking forward to more. Thank you.
Thanks for watching
Great batrep! Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
-Joe
loving the content!
Thank you very much for watching!
-Joe
Great game. Love seeing the different primary and secondary objectives. Can be a lot to keep track of in the game but brings variety to each game.
Yeah it does feel much better then the old 3 objectives basically everyone picked
Really nicely done videos on the new rules! Really good breakdowns at the end of these.
I know you don't have one on this, but I'm making my own key word of the day: sad wookie noises 😢
lol I don’t know how we forget a key word… thanks!
-Joe
fun to see more of the new version
Thanks for watching!
-Joe
Great to have these videos to help show our locals the new rules!
Glad to help
Great content! Hope to see Joe at Gencon!
I will be there! And I will have goodies! Thanks.
-Joe
Great video as always! Really liking the new slower pace and explaining the rules, picked up a thing or two. A single complaint, the music is a bit loud compared to the other audio.
I will double check the audio, thanks for watching!
-Joe
@@graysquadrongaming8670 in the intro segment, the interludes and the outro to be exact. They just seemed a bit loud compared to the rest.
Me, my son and my friend all have played the new rules. We all like them and think they are better.
They are very solid. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
thanks for explaining a lot. I really have to learn a lot again.
We know it’s new for everyone
Good content. Happy we got 2.0
Thanks for watching!
-Joe
Luke being able to take tenacity now definitely mitigates the loss of one of his regular dice and can result in a better pool 3R3B vs 6B.
Thanks for watching
Great game guys! I'm looking forward to when you guys show off the transport changes. Keep up the great work!
We will show it off soon
I liked the gav tank in the one game I tried him out. Dropped a squad of death troopers off basically on the objective.
4:15 I knew they were married
Not to eachother
@@graysquadrongaming8670 😭
I think I like the new rules overall.
The deployment and objectives rush I do not like so much.
Thank you so much for making these vids!
It just makes the game feel more action packed
I saw Don’s foot in this video. Please more close ups of Don’s foot. Just the left one though. Thank you
If I have to start an only fans I will-Don
Great report I like how you explains what's new and that you guys skip the negativity about the new edition, I'm not a fan of all the new rules but think there are more good then bad changes.
Thank you very much. We try to just show people the game and the changes really do feel good overall and we are enjoying them. Thanks!
-Joe
I would love to see an infantry based Tempest Force with the new rules played.
That much Scout seems like it can be pretty wild.
Thanks for the great games with the new rules! It has been very helpful with the added discussion about what has changed.
I will be throwing tempos out soon
Thanks for creating these videos and your description of the changes - really helpful.

That mission looks good, I have read that big units aren’t good but I think some of the big units look good.
Thanks for watching
It's growing on me...also word of the day..haha
lol, thanks!
-Joe
I was planning on watching House of the dragon tonight, postponed it, and saw this instead:) Lets goooo
Let’s go! Thanks.
-Joe
Great game and superb looking table. Where did you get the game mat from and what one is it?
Deep forest by Gray Matter Gaming 36x72 mat. We have discount code on all our video descriptions for them. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
Thanks for the report ! I was just getting into and learning the old version when this switch happened, so I still don’t get all of the terms yet.

Keep up the great work!
lol, I have always been a fast talker and I try to be aware of that. Thanks as always for watching!
-Joe
Thanks heaps for the content!
Would love to see shadow collective boys!
They will be coming for sure! Thanks.
-Joe
Looking forward to trying the large squads.
Thanks for watching
I’m still not sure Tactical/Agile trigger on the Scout move. The rulebook says they trigger on “standard move actions”, the Scout move is described as a “speed-x move action”. The wording here of standard vs speed-x is the same as before the rules change and was why tactical didn’t trigger before on scouting/climbing etc
See my other answer, but scout says perform a free speed X move, so they do trigger now. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
Commander Luke is pure fire!
He is very good at his very low cost now. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
Awesome content, as always, thank you for taking your time doing these and explain the new rules changes on the go.
However, I am worried about Don, he seems a little off. Is he not enjoying the game that much anymore?
He is logging the game right now as well. Sometimes we film later then even normal do to kids and life… also he can get salty like we all do when things don’t go our way. We both are loving the new update. Thanks!
-Joe
Great video thanks Gents
Thanks for watching
Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe Examplar doesn't apply to mercenary units irrc from what I read on the forums. Might need to double check
You are correct they should not have been able to use it. Thanks!
-Joe
BUMPER 😮
Thanks for watching!
-Joe
17:03 for Yoda they didn’t change Yoda 3 pip right?
Nope, it still works the same. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
Out of curiousity, everyone all learning so I might be wrong. Isn't scan the surface just 1 VP? You need both units to score, but one total?
Or maybe I read it wrong? I read it as the player scores 1 if they have two units with scanners, both outside deployment.
But maybe I'm mistaken. All new rules means I'm not as confident.
Either way, loved seeing Empire and Rebels! Thank you!
Excited to see transports and armor in future!
I think you may be right! Good catch. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
You were playing the points on the surface scanners incorrectly. If you have both scanners beyond the friendly territory, you only get 1 pt, not 2.
You are correct we did somehow read that one wrong, :). Thanks!
-Joe
How do you feel about Duck and Cover now. The cover changes, the suppression and panic changes, I can’t wrap my head around the value of the upgrade now.
I think on units with danger sense it’s still very good. Also low profile as well. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
The FOOT beside the dice tray! WTF?! Stop that!
Lol but nice video, thanks for the bat rep.
Haha thanks for watching
I'm curious as to what is going to be an optimal amount of activations with 1000 points.
I think it 100% depends on your faction and what you are running… I think double Jedi republic is fine with 8-9 acts. I think rebels want 10+. I think empire is happy with 10+ as well. Seps can go high or low depending on how many saber with push. Thanks!
-Joe
great game thank you. I would say my favorite Bounty hunter is either Mando or Boba over Bossk.
Thanks for watching
Nice
Thanks for watching n!
-Joe
How do you guys like the new objective/battle deck system?
I like it a lot so far. The secondary obj really help add even more variety. Thanks!
-Joe
When the Ewoks die, I always what the sad RotJ music in my head-when the one gets up but the other doesn’t. 😢
Related - why no ATSTs lately? Don’t recall seeing them in play on anyone’s lists in a while. 🤔
We used them in some of the early new rules videos and we are just moving through different list and such. More will come for sure. Thanks!
-Joe
Note that when Don pulled the dead Corp, he could have chosen to pass.
Yeah your right
Love watching your new legion videos is making me think this new version isn't all bad. Droids still seem ops af though.... need to play my list first.
It feels everyone is in a good spot so far
Absolute genius move for AMG to release the new cards a year after they made a new edition 😂
Thanks for watching
I feel like the new sleeper cell are going to go hardcore!!!!!
We will see how they play out
Doesn’t the surface scab secondary only give 1 point for both units doing it, instead of 1 each?
Correct! We should have only got one each. Thanks!
-Joe
I. Still love it
Thanks for watching!
-Joe
I may have seen this wrong, but did your standard rebel troopers get 3 dodges on turn 2? How'd you do that?
I have vigilance on leia, so I can make two troopers keep one dodge each if they are crops. Then each move now gives them a dodge due to agile. Thanks!
-Joe
Great game. I made the mistake of playing this primary mission against Kashyyk defenders, not catching enemy can destroy bunker with the SF's. Wookie horde just rolled up to my bunkers and nuked them. Very quick game lol
I think the melee Wookie unit does not count as SF's in the battleforce for battle cards. The ruling in the Battleforce says: "The following unit counts as (Core) unit for the purposes of army building and battle cards : Wookie Warriors(Noble fighters)"
Yeah that would be unfortunate
I’m liking the new rules set so far still haven’t had my first game yet though
They are solid for sure
Where did you get the new cards?
It’s all free to print and play on AMG website. Thanks!
-Joe
@@graysquadrongaming8670 Does this mean Vader and Palp are no longer playable? They dont have cards.
@Krashwire all cards that don’t have new still use the original cards which is the majority of the game. There are a couple cared on the errata document like reckless driver which have been removed. Thanks
My biggest issue with "New" Legion is 1,000pts and no bid... Not because I think either of those things are bad (quite the opposite actually) but because I'm having trouble filling out all the points lol
lol. Fair enough. But think of it as you can fit more goodies in your list. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
Why didn't you move Chewie further alongside the bunker so as to void the fire? Was he left there to soak up hits?
He thought he was out of the way enough
Great game! Krenic got a ton better, the guy I play against has been using him with Iden as well, and that is a deadly combo.
Yeah they work well together. Had I paid a little more attention I would have probably pulled it out
