Just got into legion. One of the first minis I put together was the snail tank. Took like 4 hours and only missed one piece on the inside. 1/1 would recommend for first timers

This came right on time lol. A friend and I went halfsies on the Empire/Rebellion core set and have slowly been building up our armies for a few months. Finally got to play and was gushing about it to another friend and he immediately went out and got the GAR/CIS core set. So now I'm tasked with putting together the CIS army cuz he wanted clones haha. Thanks for the suggestions

Forgot how much I loved droids as a kid so when I got into it with a friend and they took republic I looked into cis and realized I love every single mini available for the faction, thanks for helping guide what to prioritize for functionality(still bought tank early on cuz, tank and on sale)
@josephmoberly21092 жыл бұрын
It’s a good list, I honestly would replace the super tactical droid with Dooku. I feel like he is easier to use and you would spend less money overall because he takes up 1/4 of your list already. Just my 2 cents.
@tylerwellman82522 жыл бұрын
Agree with this. Super Tac Droid might be a little easier to use and can help newer players deal with the activation chain, but honestly the game isn't to hard to learn and once you do, you'll want the advanced strats Dooku can bring.

B1 minis are very well-made. I bought a standalone box of B1, loved the minis and now will try the game. Waiting for the core set. Too bad, in the place I live, there are not much wargamers, and the ones we have are WH fantasy guys and SW Legion minis available are rebels and empire
@LifeguardLeroy2 жыл бұрын
As an experienced model builder I spent 2.5 hours making 9 B1s on stream last night, then it only took 25-30mins to making all of the clones and obi, not including the speeder. Ironically those droids we still faster to make than Necron warriors games workshop, their sprue organisation has really gone down hill. This army at least for assembly I can see a lot of kids struggling to build.

My favorite new combo I just tried out is magna guard following dooku around with the protector upgrade and dooku having the force barrier upgrade. They each become nearly impossible to kill.

I recently purchased the Clone Wars core set, as I have most of the SW:Imperial Assault components and didn't want to repeat the same Empire vs. Rebels combats. Really like the larger size of these mini's...easier on my aging eyes. Your list of recommendations for future buys is much appreciated!

Where do I start? I guess that you can't go wrong with any of these choices. I absolutely love my AAT. It really commands a lot of respect and fear. Which leads me to the next unit. The Super Tactical Droid was literally a godsend for the Separatists (imo). Kalani is the exact fit for my play style. Crabbok is right, he does take a more advanced play style to really utilize. While I have the snail tank (Persuader), I haven't played with it yet, really (not quite two turns before the game had to end doesn't really count in my book, lol) I think Crabbok summed it up very nicely when he said "buy what you like the most, because that's where you're going to have the most enjoyment"

Just got into LEgion, as a friend had 2 CW core boxes just sitting around, so i ended up with 4 units of B1s, 2 Grevious and 2 units of Destroyers, plus she'd bought Dooku as well, so i have a fairly hefty start, already eyeing up Maul and the T-Series, not to mention the AAT, love me some hovertank! Many thanks for the list, its given me some guidance on what direction to roll in, as bloody hell is this game pricey! ah well, better than alternative companies, as with this at least 9 times out of 10 you are getting a full unit, sometimes 2 or more in a pack.

I have played a lot of games with just 2B1s and 1B2 and it works fantastic, so if you don’t want to buy the same box again you can buy some B2, Bx and maul and run a 800 list. Afterwards, you could also buy another core box if you want more B1s

waiting for my core set to arrive in the post. As someone coming from 40k/fantasy with general grievous I have noticed there are multiple build options. is it like 40k where different weapon options i.e the 4 sabres Vs 2 sabres Vs sabre and gun all play differently and are point costs differently or is it just cosmetic appearance? can you build with 2 light sabres and and still use the gun option in the game if not modelled with it for example like 40k?
