Happy to sponsor the new adventure of Play on Tabletop in Star Wars Legion! Hope our visual Fx helps to bring the experience and visual of the movies to the game.

[@PlayOnTabletop]

We’re exited to have you! The battlefields are so much more alive thanks to you!

Scorch-my ammo is exhausted and so am I

[@macaroni_21]

Let me just start with just how great everything looks! The battlemap looks amazing! The minis? Amazing! Just everything looks so cool! However, I did see you guys make some mistakes and wanted to correct you. Units with Scout, move when you deploy them on the battlefield. In the first shot (AT-ST against AT-RT) you rolled two surges, not crits. And because the AT-ST does not have surge to hit/crit those would count as blanks. The AT-ST mortar has suppressive, so those rebel troopers at 6:34 would have two suppression tokens on them after that attack. The troopers at 8:43 would have rolled off their suppresion, because a surge or a shield rolls off suppression Aim tokens allow you to reroll 2 dice (I think you put that in the video already, but you also made that mastake a few times so I just wanted to put that in) At 23:12, the stormtrooper unit the GAV tank is going over would have been displaced, moving them and giving them a suppression token. This was an awesome battle report, and I can't wait to see more Star Wars Legion from you guys!

[@raefmanley9316]

Great to see that Playon likes Star Wars.

[@rjpaladork]

Absolutely gorgeous board and models, super fun to watch too, me and my son recently got into Legion so this was a great watch to learn a little more about the game and just an overall great batrep

I’ve always wanted to play a scarif based scenario. Y’all did an amazing job with the terrain and unit choices! Can’t wait to see more legion on this channel, love y’all’s content. I want to say that y’all botched some of the rules for aim tokens and the suppression bc I think it’s if there’s paint you take off the suppression but I haven’t played in a couple months so idk if rules have changed. Regardless this is an AMAZING start to legion on here and again I’m super excited for more!

[@PlayOnTabletop]

We did notice that about the aim tokens. Doh! Thanks!

[@brentdikeman1464]

[@assistantref5084]

Great to see more people starting to play this in batreps. Legion still has its issues with balance, particularly at the competitive bleeding edge, but there are certain things about the basic structure of the game that are just so much better thought out than the major GW systems. It's such a breath of fresh air to play your first game after having been used to a game like 40k for a long time. P.S. When you roll dice from the same unit all firing at the same target, you don't do weapons separately, you do it all in one pool, and any effect one weapon has applies to all the dice, which ends up being really important to the strategy of the game.

[@PlayOnTabletop]

Ooh! That’s great to know! Will remember that for future games.

[@ChaosIsaacZero]

@@PlayOnTabletop Except for like, High Velocity. All the weapons in a attack pool have to have High Velocity for it to work, but the rest like Critical or Impact are applied to the entire pool.

[@StreetBoyWill]

Nick; here's a little trick for your Rebels - take Frag grenades and the Z-6 blaster. Unlike 40k, all models can opt to throw grenades if the squad is in range, and Frag Grenades give the entire attack pool Surge: Criticals. Every Frag is also a single red attack dice. The regular troops all throw Frags, while the Z6 Gatling gun shoots in the same pool. I've seen this combo surprise AT-STs about as well as having a Jedi charge them; because the surging crits helps sneak some damage past the armor.

[@PlayOnTabletop]

Wow. That sounds really effective!

[@alexandreterrat1202]
