Thank you! The whole point of these video's is to give you an idea of what you are facing or what your units can do in the game. I am glad these are helping people so much!
As a brand new player (Still painting my minis so haven't had a battle as of yet!) these videos are auper helpful. Any chance of making some videos that cover "what to buy next" after getting the core set or a Battleforce box?
I do have a brief video up going through some budget conscious buys, maybe one day I'll make a full guide for each faction. It really depends on your playstyle tho, as you can go into a lot of dfferent directiona
Starting Corrections: We Have, the first 3 of Mauls Command Cards mentioned can only be played by the Shadow Collective version, I should have caught it but other factions do let you use all 6 of there op/commander so I was just under the wrong impression.
1:10 I still don’t get AI. In the second bullet it says “if it does not have a face up order token”. Isn’t the only way to even do something with a unit is to have a face up order token? In what scenario can you use a unit while the token is face down? Or am I just reading this wrong?
So, when you issue an order token before the round begins you place it face up next to the unit. If you draw a token from the bag, then the unit didn't start with a face-up order token, so you resolve AI.
Seeing someone praising grevious his command cards hurts soo much. While not incorrect in your assesment, the practical use of grevious his commandcards is quite low. -Only his 1pip is good, doing solid damage. -His 2pip protects him, but with redsaves and 8 health he doesnt need that. His issue is with having too much suppression with only 2courage and not enough training slots nor inspire (inspire not a lot in this faction). -His 3 pip is a 'win more' card, and underwhelming at that. It gets outclassed by powercreep. Grevious is a 155pt beatstick in a faction without inspire or good aim support. He needs buffs or points reduction. Lets hope he gets fixed with the next update end of this month.
I also like to play ig but I have a problem getting closer, I mostly play with kraken, currently they reduced giverouse to 150 with blaster, so maybe he
Great information and super informative for a new player getting into the separatists. I didn’t see a section on cad bane. Is there a different ruling when it comes to bounty hunter operatives?
Yes. Kind of. So Cad Bane is a mercenary unit, and typically you can only take 1 Mercenary of each rank unless your commander has the upgrade called Allies of Convenience. Cad Bane and Bossk are the only mercenary operatives allowed in separatists, but they are both allowed in Empire too. So while you could take Cad Bane in a separatist list, he's not exclusive to the army, which is probably why he's not in the video
CIS Main here: I assembled huge amounts of these guys so I do got a tip. Use only plastic cement, this prevents them breaking more. Also assemble the legs on the torso first. Both arms also (connected via gun+hands) Then assemble the arms onto the torso Do the head parts, and once thats dried head to torso. As last step glue them with the strongest glue you got to the base (dont use plastic cement on the base, it doesnt work) This way they never break. I got 8acts of them and not a single B1 has damage on the model
@@Endor21 no problemo. I never had bad feelings about assembling the b1s. Its quite fast if you do it efficiently. Droidikas are the real pain in the rear 😂
Your videos are really good. Just getting started with legion and trying to learn about my faction and more about the game and I find your PowerPoint-like video style really engaging, simple and easy to follow!
Heads up, Maul's criminal command cards can only be played by Maul (a rival). It ways on the card you must elect (criminal symbol) Maul.
That is a point i missed thank you!
Man, I wish Sep Maul could take those...
These videos are great, just getting back into SWL & these are helping so much!

For Grievous' 2 pip the Guardian doesnt only work on Grievous. You can use it to protect other trooper units as well.

It's because it states you must nominate the specific Maul.

I've had a lot of luck in my local meta with grevious, and his 3 pip is the only one I never take. So that probably skewed my views a bit

Another great video! Love that your sprinkling some opinions on here too! Keep it up!
Thanks for the encouragement! Happy your enjoying them!
This was the first tabletop army I ever got. It was a steep learning curve but I love how the army works. Glad you’re bringing up the finer points.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it
MY personal favorite faction! Roger Roger.
Glad you enjoyed the video!

The other comment is correct about the mercenary rules, and I'll be going into Cad Bane and all the other mercenaries next weekend
only reason im not expanding my separatist army is because I hate building the b1's they keep breaking
Build the legs first, then the head. Let it dry while watching a show then do both arms at once.
Always works for me!
