You dont know how happy you guys have made me and my friends who have been trying out this game and absolutely love it and its simple to learn and dynamic gameplay. Thank you guys hope to see more! Definitely looking forward to a shaodw syndicate game.

[@cosmonautpainting]

Nick: destroys snail tank Everyone watching: but does it blow up?!

[@kingbonezai4925]

Unfortunately that is not a standard legion mechanic. Thought the spider droids do have an ability where they can self destruct when on low wounds to make a big explosion.

[@Ingeloakastemizilian]

I love watching you guys play Legion, it's my favourite wargame of all, just a small bits about the game: 1. Yoda command cards do get back to your hand depending in which one you play. 2. All force users have deflect (or some variant) that says that when you use a dodge token against a ranged attack and you get a surge, the defender receives one wound!. I hope to see more Legion on your channel guys :)

[@PlayOnTabletop]

They do indeed. It sadly didn’t come into play in this.

[@GreenTea-Pose]

[@elilieb2073]

Shadow collective vs Republic, with either Anakin or Obi proxied with Ahsoka, would make a good representation of the Clone Wars finale Hopefully your sixth episode of Legion airs well after the release of Dark Trooper/Gideon, so you can incorporate them and Din Djarrin in a game.

Great production quality on these! One major thing you missed though was you often forgot to use the pierce keyword on Yoda’s saber, and the wookie bowcasters! Yoda would actually have taken out the tank if you remembered with that 1 pip and the other wookies actually should have scored many more hits

[@louisstabile1182]

When Tyco activated B1 droids, their had to attack first, without aim. This is how work AI attack.

[@LG-vu8eb]

Hey a couple rules correct here, love the show, just thought I'd help. 1. Shots into the side don't make everything hurt it, instead only converting one hit to a crit In the case of the snail tank. 2. Those rocket launchers had impact 2. 3. The tank can fire it's main gun twice which would have been better in a few of these situations.

[@PlayOnTabletop]

Yep. We only did convert one. We misspoke. I don’t believe the rockets ever shot into anything that had armour. The flutter craft has no armour.

this battle is life like with the forest and the storming the beach, everything from the level of enthusiasm to the comments made, i would think this was made to be converted into another language, using very clear words that can be translated into the proper meaning. hahaha

[@mhume0221]

Love the video just a couple quick things when using size matter’s sometimes you can’t move yoda he has to stay in base contact with chewy the entire round. Another thing is chewy has guardian but it specifies only commanders so in your list the only unit he can guardian is Yoda not the clones.

Awesome match and you really did stick pretty close thematically except for using Phase 1 Troopers in standard armor as opposed to Jungle Warfare Troopers (sorry mega nerd haha) it was amazing. Question, I really love the gameplay itself and the tactics but don’t necessarily have the painting skills. Are there any vendors or sites where I can order the mini’s from pre-painted so I can play right away?

[@ButchersNailsEnjoyer]

It’s a discontinued game but you all should try out Star Wars Armada. It’s made by the same company who made Legion and some of rules and dice stay the same. Really cool game with amazing models

[@mikeagnew1931]

Forgot Yoda's Pierce on that tank attack

[@TheCritHitKiller]

Love these battle reports! couple notes though! The ARC troopers have tactical 1, so they gain an aim token when you perform a standard move action with them, which could have been used to reroll the attack on the spider droid! Second, when the droid trooper with the rocket launcher shot at the Raddaugh Gnasp, the hit should have been converted into a critical due to impact, rather than being removed from cover. Third, the clone trooper unit with the dc-15 sniper should not have converted the hit dice into a critical, as the critical keyword only converts surge results into criticals. Fourth, Guardian on Chewie in GAR only activates if a friendly commander unit is shot, denoted by the symbol next to the keyword on his card (it sucks i know), but if intending to use it this way, Chewie would have used red defense dice while resolving guardian, due to the Size Matters Sometimes command card. Fifth, on the start of the second turn you used the There Is No Try command card but read and used the effects for Luminous Beings Are We, Yoda's 3 pip. Sixth, when using the Overrun attack on the Droid trooper unit, since it does not count as a ranged attack, the unit does not gain a suppression from being hit, only 1 from the suppressive keyword, which does not need a hit to be applied to a unit. Neither does the attack count as an action, thus the fluttercraft may have moved once again to potentially have performed another attack. I 'enjoy' legion way too much as it may seem clear and im thankful everyone at Play on Tabletop is giving it a look and giving it the exposure it sorely requires!

[@Ingeloakastemizilian]

The fluttercraft does not have armor so impact cannot be applied against it.

At first I thought you guys only had a few videos of Legion games because you guys just got into it……. But that’s not true at all!?! Your oldest video of this game is like 4 or 5 years ago!!! So for whatever reason it seems like you guys only do 1 or 2 SW Legion game videos a year!?! Why?!? Is it because you guys do way more livestreams on it (which I didn’t think about until now for some odd reason lol)?!? I have to check after I send this! Because I can’t really pause a comment and then back out of the comment section to do all the stuff I need to do to find out and the comment would still be there! Edit: Yeah…….. Not so much! I just checked your livestream section and it’s still very rare to see a Legion game! I really didn’t do all the math and work out the numbers for “all” of the livestream on there, nor did I just keep going until the very last one on there but it seems like for every 10-15 livestreams of WH, you have 1 Legion!?! That’s too bad. I get you guys fan base is probably mostly WH fans! So I get it! But with how excited you guys were playing and talking about Legion in one of your videos from 3 or 4 years ago and how one of you even said “we need to start making way more videos for this game” I would have thought you would have way more then triple the amount of videos and livestreams on this game then you do have!?! I am a WH fan also! But unless it’s a full livestream where you explain everything while you’re doing it and it’s not edited so I would miss something that maybe consider basic or anything else a noob like me would need to know I don’t really care about it as much…… I do like it and I love the models!!! But I still have never played a game before! And I still don’t really understand the rules and how majority of it works!?! Including like basic things! I’ll include 1 (and yes, to someone that’s knows how to play and all or majority of the rules, this one will sound dumb! But to someone new like me, that was introduced to this world from Legion, it makes sense to ask)… Ok, so when a character gets shot/stabbed and takes a wound but doesn’t die, what am I putting down for a reminder of that? Really?!? “A wound token” that GW doesn’t even sale anymore and definitely doesn’t include in any of the 6 or 7 “starter sets” I’ve bought so far!?! I’m sorry, but am I the only one that thinks a “STARTER” set should have EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO START A GAME?!?!?!?!? Just saying

[@AcoylteKraven82]

I have a great battle idea you guys should do!!! But it would be a huge game and therefore also take forever to play!!! It would be a Triple Threat match! Separatist VS Republic VS Mercs! 1,600pts each!!! I don’t remember what the rules are for Mercs so I would have to check it out. But I think it would be changed only a bit!?! Kinda like a battle force game….. Just at a larger scale!
