  • Just got these Imperial Specialists in! I did initially mis-read the TREAT WOUND rule - a Restored Mini comes back with effectively one health remaining

    My favorite strategy is using Vader's "New Ways to motivate them" on royal guards, giving them 3 moves and essentially turning them into melee missiles >:-)

    My favorite strategy is to have fun. I got tired of X-Wing's "Play the meta" mentality, so I switched over to a game where every unit, even the overpriced ones, feel useful.

      Shore troopers! I can’t wait. I think Death Troopers and the tank make it a real possibility - after they bring in more flavor. If beach troopers are corps, I’m wondering how they differentiate them from other corps? Deployment like path finders would be rad, but not sure they’re specialized enough.

    Watching your legion videos always make me sad I have yet play haha I got 2 cores and all of wave 1 stuff at launch and have yet to play even 1 game. At that time my wife had her our first child, and 10 months later our 2nd one came. Two babies like that dont leave much time for playing haha.

  • @timunderbakke8756

    My favorite strategy for Legion beyond having fun is “blitzkrieg” - I like having a heavy slam forward clearing a hole and having corps flood in behind them.
    Can’t wait to see the whole vid - this is the expansion I’ve been waiting for

  • @cheneymoss3432
    @cheneymoss3432 5 лет назад

    Nice video, really neat to see what the new Imperial Command Cards are. One thing about the 2-pip command card, it can be used to counter part of the effect of Han's Reckless Diversion, as if you pin that unit down and put its face up order token back into the pile, then other units no longer have to shoot at that unit as opposed to other units. Hard to say whether or not I have a favorite strategy for Legion right now, certainly having fun with the game though!

  • @sja7613
    @sja7613 5 лет назад

    My favourite strategy involves taking down enemy AT-STs as soon as possible. I like to keep the AT-ST busy by shooting at it with the AT-RT laser cannon from afar, using this distraction to manoeuvre two squads of rebel troopers with ion troopers close enough to keep its actions to a minimum, and escort Luke Skywalker up the battle field to deliver the finishing blow using Son of Skywalker!
