If im not mistaken its the entire attack pool that gains a keyword when you add a weapon with for example velocity

High Velocity is indeed one of the exceptions to that keyword sharing.

Great episode! exited to see more legion on the channel, but something I noticed: unless otherwise specified, keywords apply to all dice in an attack pool, so with rocket launcher fire for example, regular blasters can benefit from the impact. also, while it didn't matter this time, low profile has had it's rules changed, so checking FAQs would help. Edit: looked at the rules and noticed the repulsor moves were done correctly.

@Fernando-nd1hx 2 жыл бұрын

So happy to see more of Star Wars Legion in this channel. Awesome match and report. About rules, in just a pair of attacks I think you applied impact first and then cover, but cover is applied before rules that modify dice results. That aside, this report felt so smooth, and I like the use of proxies for more narrative feels instead of being enclosed to just what exists right now.

@SimplePhill 2 жыл бұрын

22:30 I don't know if y'all know this, but force choke allows you to single out the individual non-leader trooper model you assign the wound to, rather than simply giving the entire unit 1 wound. So you could have chosen the Z-6 trooper to remove from the field.

@@mrfister1234 apocalypse and kill team play like that so idk why 40k cant either. Keep the phases but only have battle rounds so if it’s the shooting phase, units switch who shoots and with charges too that way an army isn’t wiped out from one person’s whole army charging. Movement phase would be the most interesting cause it’d be like chess where both players are constantly putting each other in check before the fighting begins. Hell even the fight phase is based off activations so idk why the shooting, movement and psychic phase can’t either

Amazing! I’m a fan of 40K and legion, so you guys are the perfect channel!! I’d like to point out that death troopers get an aim token for standbys, not movement and the rebel commandos should have got suppression tokens when the TIE interceptor shot them. A tip for death troopers, use the focus fire upgrade, it’s free and gives you range 4 suppressive shots on everyone, and range 2 red dice, with blast. Great effects, board, minis and gameplay overall! 👍

Targeting scopes are basically useless on sniper strike teams because of how aim works. Both OT snipers roll 2 dice when using their high velocity weapons and even without precise you can reroll 2 dice when you spend an aim, but not reroll your rerolls. Instead, take ascension cables so you can clamber, move and shoot on turn one, and/or a smoke grenade so you can help keep your troops alive

The alternating activations of units let's both players play and react instead of 1 player playing for 2 hours beating the snot out of you and if you have anything left you might get to play.
