Star Wars Legion Battle Report Episode 13: Empire vs CIS

[@PAPAxHEAVY]

Great game guys! I appreciate the feedback on the list. I definitely misunderstood some of those cards when I was putting everything together. That was my first list I've ever made (2nd if you count the old rules submission) and I'm glad it turned out okay. Keep up the great work!

@Kakuja1111 That ATST was scary lol. Getting an aim from moving plus all the really good dice rolls made him a force to be feared. Poor Sun Fac didn't stand a chance lol

My credits are on the Empire. Those Spider Droids will probably eat the AT-ST like a snack but the Death Troopers, Range Troopers, and Vader I think are going to clean house.

[@Kakuja1111]

I think the CIS is gonna win because PapaHeavy is cool! Sorry for messing up my list on my first and second submission (command cards were missing Vader had barrier and wrong pilot) school and work is kicking my butt. Thanks for playing my list Don I and for the inspirational quote of “when you gotta cane sometimes you just got to use it…even though you have wings”.

[@graysquadrongaming8670]

Haha thanks

[@JayOttawa]

Great game guys. The reliable 2 is great on Vader but it’s so much easier to get him into the enemy lines with the infiltrate on the divulge. Always a tough choice.

[@graysquadrongaming8670]

Yeah it’s hard to decide

[@Kaimuund]

I like burst of speed to get him stuck in, saving the surges for defense dice. I try to bring royal guards to protect him. Still not sure on them.

Does the atst’s standby not get cracked after the 2 damage it took?

Standby’s only come off with suppression. Vehicles cannot gain suppression therefore they’re one of the best units to get a suppression token. Thanks for watching.

Post video: Great game, happy to be correct woth my guess lol. I definitely didn't think the ion spider would keep the at-st locked down as much as it did. The geonosian did a lot of work whoch os great to see.

I am predicting a victory for the Empire! It's great to see Sun Fac on the table though. I'm curious if he will get some tweaks later on since he's a bit overpriced imo.

He seems fairly priced for his ability

Vader!! Because you don't know the power of the dark side

[@graysquadrongaming8670]

[@gecko2306]

I don't think the viper droid contributes to the melee attack pool of the B2 unit. It's only ranged, so in melee he just sits there and looks pretty. Also, on a different note, Poggle's 1 pip is so nice on paper, but I have never seen anyone actually set up and execute that play. It's just so insanely difficult, and it pretty much means you're sacrificing Poggle.

[@graysquadrongaming8670]

We doubled checked with the large discord and was told he can add to melee he just has to shut his gun during range since he is side arm range. Thanks!
-Joe

[@joshuapicaro8726]

49:27 advanced targeting would give the range troopers an aim while punching

[@graysquadrongaming8670]

I thought it was ranged only, I was wrong

[@TheHeroicraptor]

I think the bugs should be able to use their free jumps to avoid most of the imp gunline, but Vader will be able to push in and flush them out. Narrow Imp victory.

[@dylangreen9995]

Bug victory!!!!!

[@graysquadrongaming8670]

Thanks for watching

[@happesushi]

Gotta give it to the bugs here, the Empire list feels like its trying to do too much at once. Veers with AT, a handful of various scattered infantry units with an ok amount of investment, an AT-ST, and I think the biggest thing, Vader but without most of his command cards. I think a good portion of Vader's strength is his command hand, but the rest of the list was designed to revolve around Veers instead. I think the Veers infantry heavy idea is interesting, just clashed a bit too much with Vader and what he does.
As for the bug list, I def do think bugs are quite solid (tho competing with B2s for slots is a tough one right now) I think situational awareness has lost a lot of value tho and those points could be better served elsewhere. I also feel like either defensive protocols or attack protocols are probably better on the flamer now than engagement since it is super easy to get around AI anyways and engagement is not only the most expensive, but also lacks any secondary buffs to the unit.
