  • This week on Little Wars TV, let's make the jump to hyperspace to a galaxy far, far away! We are re-fighting the Battle of Endor from the 1983 Star Wars classic, "Return of the Jedi," using the Legion rules from Fantasy Flight Games. Can Han, Leia, and Chewie break into the Imperial bunker to disable shield generator for the Death Star before it's too late?
    But before we play our Star Wars battle, Keith and Brian talk about the state of historical wargaming today, and how science fiction and fantasy games can serve as a gateway to the historical side of the hobby. If you'd like to see us fight some of the most famous battles in military history on the tabletop, be sure to subscribe to Little Wars TV!
    For a free copy of this Star Wars Legion scenario, you can visit us at www.LittleWarsTV.com.

    I just recently finished playing Jedi: Fallen Order, and I think a pack with Cal Kestis and his crew would be a no-brainer. Since FFG usually releases in pairs, you could also have the Second Sister and Purge Troopers come out alongside. This was a great episode, and thank you all for putting it out!!

  • @junkjunk81

  • @1glenngary
    @1glenngary 4 ปีที่แล้ว +16

    I agree with everything in the intro, if historical gaming is to grow it has to really embrace fantasy/scifi. Here in the PNW, at our big convention, Enfilade, we see a growing number of those games, and that are fun, draw in players, who then get involved with the other games. As far as a supplement, since I am not that familiar with the game, I would say "Capture the Star Destroyer" sort of like Space Hulk? on ship fighting to take or clear out resistance.

    • @rileyosteen6470
      @rileyosteen6470 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The reason they ended it like that is because each side is given a finite amount of those command cards for each game, so presumably, once the cards ran out, that's when they decided the battle would end

    Finally, I have to say most of the other people mentioned great ideas for expansions, but something that would be on my instant buy list would be the 10mm scale version of Legion, as I love the GW 'Epic Scale' games enormously.

    I myself started as a strictly historical gamer only! I was very opinionated about it, and had quite the attitude about gamers who played fantasy games. However, I was open to Sci Fi, since technically, that is" in the future" Eventually, I friend convinced me to try a fantasy game, and I really enjoyed it, and it changed my perception of the genre. At this point, I view ALL games as viable entertainment, and hope they all survive the hobby of gaming, especially miniatures/table top. Thank you for this videw

    As always another great episode. I stared with Historic gaming took a detour through Star Fleet Battles, all the while doing World War 2 micro armor battles. I have played Star Wars X-Wing toyed with the idea of Star Wars Legion. I think It would be great if they dove into the Mandolorians, this would be great. Jet packs, blasters, flamers and disintegrations.
    A side note on rules, I found on Face Book a set of rules where the guy had taken Bolt Action and adapted it to Star Wars, looks like a lot of fun. Need AT-AT's. Well guys really enjoyed the episode. love the imperial Star Trek shirts.

    I've been really enjoying the content on this channel. I have to agree on the point made at the beginning that sci-fi and fantasy gaming is a great tool for bringing people into historical wargaming. My friends and I are all in our mid 20's and recently we've been really enjoying bolt action, and are looking to get into more macro scale games (like the one shown in the d-day episode). We never would have given bolt them a shot though if it wasn't for warhammer 40k getting us into the hobby in the first place.
