- Rebels, Empire, Republic and Separatists! In the world of Star Wars Legion, choosing one of these mighty factions is one of the hardest decisions you'll need to make!
Not to worry though, in this video I will break down each faction in Star Wars Legion into easy to understand bullet points that will make one of life's hardest choices that much easier!
If this video helped please let me know in the comments down below! (And if it didnt let me know why in the comments down below!) - บันเทิง
What makes this game superior to 40k is there isn’t a favorite faction. Each army pretty much gets equal releases not space marines getting 40 new models a year and dark eldar get a new model every decade. The keyword system in legion also balances the game extremely well because everyone uses the same stats. You dont have one army at a time getting a codex release and then other armies fall behind with no rules. Everyone in legion uses the same rules and weapons to a degree
Totally agree
I love 40k... but this game provides a similar experience in a more streamlined and balanced experience
40k is designed to fail. It's what gets the whales and the junkies coming back for more.
I liked your thoughts and details. One thing I rarely ever see articulated during these types of videos, which is unique to legion, is order control. The cis do it best, but are punished with their ai system if they don’t do it. The republic do it second best and it helps get their fire supports off. The shadow collective do it the worst, with their independent keyword. But that gives them extra tokens to start each round. It’s another big part of faction identity for the factions besides the other obvious ones like cost, offense, defense, etc.
Thanks for watching!
Yeah you're absolutely right - I just tried to keep this beginner friendly without too much of the game terms as I think alot of new players wouldn't really understand all the lingo.
Some great points about order control though!!
Just getting into this game, this was the best video I've found on Legion, thanks for all the great info. Your channel deserves way more attention!
thank you very much! glad you enjoyed - what faction are you going with?
i think you basically summed it up the best way possible. honestly im going for droids and clones, so i can battle some mates, i love the painting of clones but also love the building aspect of droids, droids are way more work lol but i find it quite enjoyable
I went with droids and my mate went with clones - droids are tricky, but, very rewarding!
Thanks for watching!
great video! Something to add to the conversation is empire has the most bounty hunters which is also a win condition you can play towards.
Great video! You got yourself the new subscriber
Thanks for subscribing! Much more stuff on the way!
As a separatist player I would say the best thing to keep in mind is your b1 order chain and who and when you give orders to and having super tactical droid and t series being amazing leaders as they can give troops free order tokens which can then be passed on.
The T series commanders are definitely great!
Thanks for watching!
I loved this !!!!
Pls more of everything star wars legion!!!
Painting , talks , discussions, builds .
More more more .
Love it ! 🧡
Thank you very much! Lots more star wars legion videos on the way!
@@kal_paints heck yeh ! Cant wait !
Well presented and articulated
Thanks for the feedback my friend!
Love the videos and the creativity in the thumbnails! Keep up the good work 👏
Thanks for watching!!
Good shit
Thanks for watching!
How do you only have 39 (now 40 subs?) Bro
40 subs is mindblowing for me! 😂
At least you can say that you were here when it all began! 😅
Empire. The answer is the Empire.
Empire is great! And fun to paint!
So would you say the last faction be good for like space pirates? Would love to do that with Legion.
Yeah!
Pikes, black sun enforcers and mandalorian super commandos make up most of the faction which is definitely the closest to space pirates. You also get access to alot of different mercenaries too! The only thing is you don't get the dice, tokens and other bits and pieces to play the game like you would if you bought a core box!
Honestly I haven't actually bought a shadow collective box so there are probably other people that would have more information on them :)
Thanks for your comment!
@kal_paints Thank you! Will most likely be getting cool mix for nice space pirate gang! Least it can fit into any time period too decently easy haha!
That's a trick question:
You don't pick any of them because Star Wars is being destroyed by Disney and you don't fork over money to the Great Horned Rat.
I find your lack of faith disturbing... 😂
Appreciate the video! Well explained, thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for commenting!
Empire is weak these days, republic or separatist with experimental droids is the move. Or shadow collective. Any faction is still viable tho
Yeah you're right! although this video is more for starter players and casual play
Empire is probably the worst faction rn. They has the worst win rate at worlds 2024 Also republic is not very easy to play they have a high skill ceiling with fire support and token sharing
Yeah man you're absolutely right, this video was made when worlds 2024 was happening I think -
Great point for GAR too, i think they're strong in beginner play even without token sharing and fire support tho
Thanks for your comment!
Is it the worst at casual play levels, too? Because tournament players aren't the same as us filthy casuals.
@@stevenschnepp576 personally for casual I think its more who uses the army over what the army is - I played empire for the first time a few months ago against a seasoned GAR played and won. plus the main thing is we both had a great time lol
Easy. Ewoks
Respect lol
I straight up don’t get how we have shadow collective and not Resistance/New Republic and First Order.
Completely agree, would love to paint up Kylo Ren!!
Maybe they're worried that the resistance is too close aesthetically to the rebels?
Thanks for commenting anyhow!
I think its because nobody likes the sequel movies and they dont want to f+ck around with the Star Wars fans, Disney might have lost (seeing that Rouge One and Andor are way better movies/shows than the sequels, says it all I guess)
It's because merch based on the sequels did not sell well once people realised what a trash fire those movies were.
They don't want to develop factions if there's a not small risk that no one will buy them (yes, I know that in reality some people still would, but that's not what the numbers of toys predict).
Add to that a complete lack of sequel era content since the films and that weird racing cartoon thing wrapped up and there's not much to work with in terms of future units.
@TortleTalk well articulated!
Think you hit the nail on the head there honestly regarding the sequels
Get a hundred Star Wars fans together, and you might find a couple who would prefer the Sequel shit over anything else. That's the important part, you see, the *anything else.* Most players aren't going to buy three armies, they'll buy maybe one and a few odd models they like. Wasting resources on something that's on nobody's to-buy list is just asking to lose money.
Well, that, and there's nothing First Order and Resistance do that can't be done with Empire and Rebels. If they do release ST models, I wouldn't be surprised at all if they're under the OT faction banners.
CAN WE GET AN OPR PORT PLOX?
I have no idea what that is haha but thanks for commenting!
