[@michaelbowers7400]

That great and very different cruise and freighters outter rimcharts ASTRO charts okay wow, and cool different upgrades cards.thank update.

[@343omen]

I just got into Star Wars legion. Love these videos they have been a big help when make purchases.

[@_wombatplays]

For the Republic!

[@christopherdilloway4836]

Just need to add "til all are one" at the end lol. As a new player to Legion I appreciate that there is no overlap between the core box and the battle force box.

[@PickleRick8869]

I've been waiting for this one. Awesome! My younger brother and myself just got in to Star Wars Legion, both of us playing with my starter set for the Galactic Civil War. He was thinking of starting a Clone army so this video is going to help him massively! Thanks Crabbok!

[@tomwood_116]

This video series really helped me when I was first getting into legion a couple of years ago, so is well worth a watch for newbies!

[@NapoleonSoares]

Recently got into legion and I've found it super helpful to go through your backlog of videos. Thanks for being such a consistent content creator, it's made catchup up really easy!

[@ChosenOne-il4bm]

Is it better than tcgs ?

[@NapoleonSoares]

@@ChosenOne-il4bm It is different than tcgs. TCGS are a lot less involved to play casually, but probably a lot more involved to play competitively. They are both awesome games to play though.

[@Ryadic]

I just started looking into this game. 2024 when?

[@dennisfoulds3941]

You are very well spoken, I will say with your Chanel, I’m just starting out with Star Wars legion. Found your information very helpful. I will be back. Thank you.

[@dennisfoulds3941]

Stay with ( sorry )

[@chrismccormick7042]

I got myself a core set of the Republic some phase 2 clones a Tx-130 and Grand master Yoda for my 1st buy just a month ago so still painting them up and watching alot of videos

[@christopherhicks2396]

Thank you for all your hard working in producing your content! 😀

[@nickhartung6941]

I'm just getting started I used to play war hammer 40k but it's just to expensive solutely loved your budget videos they really helped out a lot

[@danielf.6162]

Wow I didn't realize how few units the republic has compared to empire and rebels. Great points tho!

[@DakkaDakka12]

Republic hasn’t gotten a new unit in about 2 years.

[@warrior921994]

​@@DakkaDakka12 well with Cody and Ahsoka it seems like they'll finally get the reinforcements they need 😊👍🏻

[@mitchkowalenko6573]

Wish they keep up with armada

[@sea_triscuit7980]

Got the Core set and my brother bought the Infantry Platform because he's always loved that vehicle and was surprised to see it... They pair up insanely well with the Clone Troopers and the Infantry Platform is cheaper than the T Battle Tank (points and money wise). Not to mention the Fire Support Mechanic plays in nicely with the Platform. Anyway, it's a quick buy to give yourself a heck of an edge... The firepower and gunslinger ability on the weaponry works well too... I speak as a CIS player with the core set's droids and a squad of B2 battle droids to deal with my brother's Infantry Platform, it's very hard to deal with haha

[@happesushi]

One thing I think worth mentioning with the 501st is that its 3 sets of the ARC trooper expansion so it gives not only 3 full squads but 3 strike teams too, enough to fill out a standard list's SF slots with either. Def agree on the LAAT/LE build instructions, at least one of the smaller pieces straight up isn't shown where it goes, just suddenly is on the model in the diagrams. I think R2 is a solid addition to a cody list since cody wants to have vehicles, and adding 3po can help give out tokens to either your clones for sharing, or vehicles. The dodge might not do much (unless its a saber), but 70 points for potential 4 extra health and consistent extra aims on a vehicle is solid. Getting the secret mission point is a bit hard with his speed 1 tho and dedicating a laat for transport is a bit much compared to say an x-34 on rebels.

[@itsjust_apple4413]

Just got into legion in the past couple months, was looking forward to this video!

[@darthmuadib7237]

I purchased the Wookie box before I even purchased any Core Box Set. And, I will run an all-Wookie team in a heartbeat. Back in the D20 Star Wars Minis game I used to run an all-Wookie team. I lovingly called...The Hair Bear Bunch, us old heads know who they are. I will revive the Hair Bear Bunch once again in Legion and even in Shatterpoint. They have to make a Wookie unit for Shatterpoint.

[@robertlewis6776]

Thank you so much for this video, just starting republic so this is very helpful

[@justinpeyton6120]

Im so glad you did an update for GAR when Im trying to buy more to get started

[@averywise659]

Hi! You inspired me to start playing 2 years ago and I'm glad to still be playing.

[@caarctr00per]

Your video on Empire recommendations was very helpful, and I’m sure I’ll come back to this one when the time comes. Right now, I just want to buy ARCs for days. Haha.

[@CaG0611]

Finally! I’ve been waiting for this for so long!

[@POzziee]

I feel as well as pointing out the print errors in the 501st Legion Battle Force Box, you should also point out that some genius at AMG wrote rules that allow 4 Special Forces in a list, but only included 3 Special Forces order tokens. Also mine and others I've seen didn't come with flight stands for the Arc Troopers, and despite the UK still having a parts department the waste of space Asmodee UK seem to be 12 weeks on still haven't rectified this. It's great to spend all that cash and have miniatures I cannot use.

[@willemvheerden7185]

I've been waiting so long for this list!! These are amazing watches especially if you are getting back into the swing of the game.

[@thecanadianclassroom3188]

I enjoy the caveats you place at the start of these videos.

[@jatiearney]

Love these videos! I picked up 2 core sets last year based on your 2022 recommendation videos, so these are a good place to find additional key units. Unfortunately, I didn't know about the battle force boxes before picking up the 2nd core set...

[@paulseabold7317]

Just started expanding from my GAR collection from the core set. So glad to see the clone commander and specialists were what you recommended. I thought many of the same points as to the value. I really want to use rex as the commander and the clone commander as a phase 1 clone unit leader.

[@nikkibaugher1072]

Nice points. I'll use them in making my next purchase

[@somerandomperson4022]

Been looking at starting an army for Legion, this video may have just helped me find which one I want to pick

[@anthonyr4179]

Thanks for the video, recently into Legion with Empire, but was very close to doing GAR instead!

[@demonhunter651]

This is the list I was most looking forward to. Thanks for the great content

[@10165joe]

Been waiting for this one... and it didn't disappoint! Thanks 😊

[@zargodan6082]

Thank you for these videos, as a new player has helped me figure out what I need to make an army

[@Ironbudha23]

Great video! Always great information that you give to new players. Keep up the good work.

[@robbiez3383]

Been waiting for this one. Thanks!

[@NOVAmoosie]

Love this, very helpful! Can’t wait to see some GAR tips on future videos!

[@zoebirrell3712]

Guess i need to throw my name in the hat for the shatter point give away. Have only just finally invested in legion after corting it for a long while but some of the sculpts and minis in shaterpoint are awesome. Have really been enjoying all your legion content and found it super informative so thanks for it all.

[@voidless2669]

I have recently started playing gar and am just waiting for my 501st box to start playing so this was helpful to find some good units to fill out my army thanks crabbok

[@captainmalheur]

Good stuff! My GAR is all still in boxes but I will get to them oneday.....

[@AndyPaintsPoorly]

I'll be restarting my GAR this year and hopefully have a proper 212th army when I get Cody and Obi Wan going.

[@AcoylteKraven82]

11:08- I like this box! But it is beyond disappointing that we STILL don’t have a upgrad box like this for our phase 2 troopers!?! I don’t get it!

[@genericedgelord3489]

Gotta get that battleforce soon. It will round out my army well enough.

[@AcoylteKraven82]

27:02- Really?!? I guess it was a bit of a pain for me also. But I definitely wouldn’t consider it the worst for me. Obviously everyone is different and we all have things we are good or bad at but I had huge issues with the AT-ST and it’s F-ing legs!!! My AT-ST looks drunk sitting on a bench! Lmao

[@dyciefisk2535]

I have the core box stuff and my plan is for the 501st, Commander Cody, and a Saber Tank. Because nothing says infantry game like a mechanized force.

[@trevorb509]

I can’t wait to get all the sets

[@Kitsune_.-]

As a new Legion & GAR player thus gives me an idea what to expand my 501st box.

[@kuriouskoopatroopa3129]

Great content as always! Will we be seeing more battle reports on the channel? Love your precise games and explanations, keep up the good work 🎉 Luv ya!

[@pkrzywniak]

Thanks great video

[@Thelokers778]

Finally😂. I was waiting for this

[@29396]

thinking of getting into legion primarily for painting the minis, i love mandos - what kind of faction would be the best foray into that?

[@jonathanquinlan3811]

thanks for the content

[@redviego6714]

Hopefully you do CIS/Droids next cause my bro and I literally just started thinking of getting into legion with clones vs droids

[@samuelbarrett76]

Keep up the great videos

[@grants565]

Started off with the Shadow Collective battle force and quickly started expanding into GAR, super excited to fully expand into all that this army has to offer

[@charlescassels3826]

I started in GAR but I’m lookin g at picking up the shadow collective, seems like a great deal to cheaply and quickly build a unique list.

[@Pelorious]

How did it feel doing that transition? I'm also looking to get into star wars legion, and those two forces are what I'm currently deciding between.

[@grants565]

@@Pelorious GAR obviously has a bit more diverse play style depending on what you start out with while SC has limitations on your units, but I have found that it all depends on what you are looking to get out of it. You can get a full 9-10 activation list with two SC start let boxes and GAR is going to be a little more expensive to get into, but it’s very much like Crabbok suggests it’s what you like and want to play/have as a collection and you can always branch out and build multiple armys

[@grants565]

@@charlescassels3826 my 10 activation list with SC consist of 2 battle force boxes and Gar Saxon as there aren’t many other options for them, but they are a lot of fun to play as and painting Maul’s Mandos was and awesome bonus

[@ChosenOne-il4bm]

This is a budget How much is a full army ??

[@SpaceSpuddd]

Been looking forward to this series! Can you do an updated series on Armada ? Been keen on that game also but don’t really know where to start in 2023.

[@kiryucpr4054]

Captain Rex have 1 issue, have no acces to pierce keyword, via pierce or lethal, if rex have at least lethal 1 would be a god tier commander

[@isaacpelletier8313]

Started legion recently coming from 40k, so far GAR is the faction i like the most. But i feel their roster is a Little lackluster, especially on the operative Side( no Jedi There really?). I hope they are gonna release more content for Them this year.

[@isaacwallace95]

This will be very helpful once iv completed the two armies I already started 😂 my wife thinks I have enough already but we all know that's not true

[@JonathanBorre]

Great video

[@gonzo26nix]

"what to buy first" videos are always great and tend to need to be redone every couple of years as new products come out and rules are updated.

[@morgymomo8535]

general kenobi get it, he said the hello there funny thing!

[@kyleglenister244]

Love it!

[@carlosarizcun_97]

trying to get into legion after years of following it, but before i know what to buy i have an stupid question: i´m buying it to play with a friend and that´s it, no tournaments no anything, just to play it at home with one copy of each core set and a bunch of expansions, even if we make big games with a lot of points, even if we follow the rules and stick to 500-800-1600 points, there´s one thing bothering us, which is mixing phase 1 and 2 troopers on the battlefield so we were thinking.. since we´re not compiting anywhere, can we get a bunch of phase 2 clone troopers, save their cards, and just use the rules for the phase 1 clones with the phase 2 minis, considering we´ll also have captain rex, commander cody, arc troopers and stuff like that on the battlefield? or would that be too confusing and illegal even for a fun, chill game night at home? maybe 3d printed minis from etsy would be better? give me your opinion and best advice on that if you can! thanks and amazing videos, very helpfull for new players!

[@chriscindric8689]

I’m just dipping my toes into Legion. Would definitely buy Shatterpoint if I won the gift card.

[@selby2180]

Where do I find the 'nerf's to Rex? I can't find anything in the errata document that's on the AMG site. Is it hidden somewhere else? And is there a place you download updated unit cards for printing?

[@airborneD4478]

I love these videos.

[@lelouchhatake424]

Gotta wonder when Cody comes out who is gonna have the better list ? The 501st themed one or the star corps ? Be a cool battle for sure

[@paololongo9660]

Amazing

[@MrWishbone360]

Clone wars starter set in $60 on Amazon right now!

[@justinvanvolkenburg5298]

There really should be an additional video for the "universal" buys that should be considered first.

[@robertferguson2183]

I love these videos to see what direction i want to drive my clones as the game progresses forward. Also comment to enter give away.

[@Phlanx06]

501st seems to be out of stock everywhere, any idea why it's out of stock now? It's been this way for a few months now

[@BoldAndSpicy]

Glad to see they ran out of stock of the 501st battleforce. Hopefully it means theyre fixing the issues with the box.

[@victorgarciadominguez9156]

Deffinetely the clone battle force is the best one out, no repeted units with the core and the value of it is crazy!

[@josephmoberly2109]

This list is pretty accurate to what I think. If you don’t get the battleforce box you will need Anakin I think

[@stormwalker628]

As a Rebel player it's good info to see if not 100% relevant, but if I do start a second faction, it would be this one.

[@mr.pretzel1458]

Anyone know where I can find an English 501st battle force I found one on Amazon and it wasn’t English 😂

[@michaelcalabretta8158]

With how the faction is I would still start with 2 core sets, phase 1 clones are still some really great units

[@And-c7n]

You'll have to update this for Legion 2.0

[@alexm.1464]

Cool video

[@jonathankilby6636]

Still really intrigued by legion... Still deciding on faction.

[@runamuck840]

30 dollars for 4 minatures!? This game is heaven

[@SeanMittelstädt]

Clones for the win 😊

[@logansett1400]

GAR may not be the most meta of the factions, but I play it purely cuz of the cool factor

[@warrior921994]

Hi, i'm from Germany and would like to know if the giveaway is US specific or world wide.

[@harraspara0158]

Nice vid

[@createdmanpainting]

Finally!! I have been waiting for this for months when I first found you after I started up with Legion 😅😅

[@OneofInfinity.]

Prices will rise soon, seen it on my favorite minis already. I collect more than playing personally, 3d printing single pieces is becoming more wallet friendly for me.

[@nerdstuffandreviews7578]

I’m glad to see a Cody model coming out soon, but I hope he isn’t so good that he becomes and auto-include for every GAR list. The great thing about the starter set phase 1 clone models is that they are really easy to build…and they are excellent corps units still.

[@t4nkychannel921]

Seeing how cheap all this stuff is, I wish there was a Legion community where I am. Instead, I'm just running Guard and Knights in 40k.

[@davidslusser8389]
