Some of the Empire and Rebel design at least from early on was that the Empire was the faction for dealing out suppression and hurting the opponent's order control while Rebels were the faction that could thrive the most under suppression; I think with time Empire's lost that bit of that 'oppressive' flavor which I'd like to see revisited, but I don't think Rebels ever really stopped being the faction just generally good at not getting bogged down and getting the most out of every little unit till their untimely demise.

As a separatist player, I really think one thing that's missing from our faction identity currently is the idea of these cheap mass-produced units. I think we should have the most units on a table at any given time. Like most activations by far. It doesn't really make sense that I can take the same amount of b1s as I can for ewoks, which are kind of better. Honestly, if they wanted to I feel like if they gave the T-Series a Entourage 2 b1s it'd be a lot better
@tylerhenry5575Ай бұрын

I feel like they should rename the shadow collective faction to criminal underworld or something else and then keep shadow collective as one of the battle forces. Shadow Collective was specifically Maul’s criminal order so adding people like Hondo and his crew or things from Book of Boba don’t fit with shadow collective. I think to start we should get a second battle force for criminal underworld with Hondo and his crew. We could get the tank they use + Hondo + 3 squads of Weequay pirates + 2 pirate Ewebbs as we see in the clone wars. Then on the side they could sell Turk Falso as another commander, weequay sniper team, update the swoop bikes to come with a weequay optional figure and add Aurra Sing. All of these should also be allowed into the pirates battle force with a flaw card given for Turk Falso. I feel like this would make a solid start to a proper criminal underworld faction and then you could combine shadow collective and hondos crew if you wanted to without needing to follow battle force rules like all the other factions can. I think for the hondos crew battle force (whatever they wanna call it) there should be a lot of independent 1 or 2 but also something like Krennics 1 pip built in to give better order control without losing the independent benefits. We have seen Hondo plan very well to take on much stronger opponents but we have also seen his men and him be tempted by bribes and the endless greed that comes with being pirates. Due to this there should be a flaw card built into the battle force rules as well as a flaw card for Hondo himself to reflect his greedy nature. I think this would make it feel super unique from other battle forces in terms of unique rules.

I think if legion pushes towards larger games the ATAT is unlikely to come, but there's vehicles that could ahow up earlier, like the ATTE its a decent bit smaller and can have some bend in it, so it can fit on tables better, making it a good candidate for the first super unit
@KhobaiАй бұрын
a scale AT-AT would be half the size of the table so not gonna happen. i dont think an ATTE is very likely either. I personally dont think super units belong in legion except maybe in special scenarios. Theres just not enough weapons in the game to consistently damage regular vehicles let alone super vehicles. what legion needs the most right now is more narrative scenarios/objectives to make the game more immersive.

@@Khobai are you joking? In battlefront 2015 there's an entier game mode about infantry destroying ATATs, next, if they are increasing the scale of legion, they can easily make the new large points game increase board size, and that's the mode that it would be realistic to play it in, next, they can shrink model size down by a decent bit to help make it playable, particularly if they just shrink the height, and of course the inclusion of super units would be not a single faction event, the rebels for example might get a Y wing in the same teir

I feel like empire’s unique them should be like an unstoppable force / very good at giving suppressions while avoiding being slowed down / panicked. I think that this could be accomplished by giving more suppression removal to empire like maybe remove 2 instead of 1. In Star Wars media we have seen every other faction run away or be pinned down including clones but we almost never see the empire be pushed back or pinned down only slowed in their advance. Imperial units also shoot a lot in Star Wars media and many lasers fly every time the empire is on screen. Thematically this would be really cool but the problem is Empire doesn’t need a buff really so it might require a deeper rework or maybe you just leave empire as the only faction without a niche (give one to rebels like more command cards per round or something hero focused) and then just allow empire players to have slightly more cost effective units than rebels and republic due to them not having a niche. By effective I don’t always mean cheaper I mean cheaper per output attack wise. This increased unit amount / more dice would become a niche in of itself I feel and would give that sense of an unstoppable force.

I think leaning into hero play is something that could work nice for Rebels, the main issue with it is being limited to 5-6 command cards, which if every hero unit has 3 each then it will be a real struggle to get max value out of them all. So either new hero units would have to have more attached to their unit cards, or they need more hero synergistic command cards like the Sabine/Ahsoka one and the Chewbacca cards. I could see the associate keyword being used regularly for Rebel heroes, either that or a new keyword that does something similar. To tie into the Mandalorian they could also get a Mandalorian battleforce.

I feel like the Empire's identity should be "cutting edge weapons" which includes vehicles imo. Basically, the Empires troops are professional, but not as elite as Clones. But their edge is that the Empire is a manufacturing juggernaut and can issue tons of heavy weaponry, vehicles and advanced prototypes to the battlefield. We have for example, the best Heavy in the ATST, a flier in the LAAT/LE and we have the first heavy infantry unit in the Dark Troopers. I think if we get more weapon specialists to throw into troops, heavy military vehicles and special units like Dark Troopers (Here is hoping for Imperial Super Commandos from Mandalorian) then it could seal their identity as the 'tech' faction.

Empire: Heavy Armor Gunlines, focus on vehicles and armor rather than standard troopers Rebels: Guerilla Warfare (run and gun), units focus on mobility to mitigate incoming damage CIS: Overwhelming numbers, weapons and abilities arent great on their own but when in large numbers are more effective. GAR: Team work + elites. Focus on synergy between units rather than quantity. Shadow Collective: Similar to rebels but makes use of "tricks" or trap mechanics more so than direct attacks
