What makes this game superior to 40k is there isn’t a favorite faction. Each army pretty much gets equal releases not space marines getting 40 new models a year and dark eldar get a new model every decade. The keyword system in legion also balances the game extremely well because everyone uses the same stats. You dont have one army at a time getting a codex release and then other armies fall behind with no rules. Everyone in legion uses the same rules and weapons to a degree

I love 40k... but this game provides a similar experience in a more streamlined and balanced experience

I liked your thoughts and details. One thing I rarely ever see articulated during these types of videos, which is unique to legion, is order control. The cis do it best, but are punished with their ai system if they don’t do it. The republic do it second best and it helps get their fire supports off. The shadow collective do it the worst, with their independent keyword. But that gives them extra tokens to start each round. It’s another big part of faction identity for the factions besides the other obvious ones like cost, offense, defense, etc.

Thanks for watching! Yeah you're absolutely right - I just tried to keep this beginner friendly without too much of the game terms as I think alot of new players wouldn't really understand all the lingo. Some great points about order control though!!

I loved this !!!! Pls more of everything star wars legion!!! Painting , talks , discussions, builds . More more more . Love it ! 🧡

@@kal_paints heck yeh ! Cant wait !

great video! Something to add to the conversation is empire has the most bounty hunters which is also a win condition you can play towards.

Well presented and articulated

As a separatist player I would say the best thing to keep in mind is your b1 order chain and who and when you give orders to and having super tactical droid and t series being amazing leaders as they can give troops free order tokens which can then be passed on.

The T series commanders are definitely great! Thanks for watching!

So would you say the last faction be good for like space pirates? Would love to do that with Legion.

Yeah! Pikes, black sun enforcers and mandalorian super commandos make up most of the faction which is definitely the closest to space pirates. You also get access to alot of different mercenaries too! The only thing is you don't get the dice, tokens and other bits and pieces to play the game like you would if you bought a core box! Honestly I haven't actually bought a shadow collective box so there are probably other people that would have more information on them :) Thanks for your comment!

I straight up don’t get how we have shadow collective and not Resistance/New Republic and First Order.

Completely agree, would love to paint up Kylo Ren!! Maybe they're worried that the resistance is too close aesthetically to the rebels? Thanks for commenting anyhow!

I think its because nobody likes the sequel movies and they dont want to f+ck around with the Star Wars fans, Disney might have lost (seeing that Rouge One and Andor are way better movies/shows than the sequels, says it all I guess)

Empire is probably the worst faction rn. They has the worst win rate at worlds 2024 Also republic is not very easy to play they have a high skill ceiling with fire support and token sharing

Yeah man you're absolutely right, this video was made when worlds 2024 was happening I think - Great point for GAR too, i think they're strong in beginner play even without token sharing and fire support tho Thanks for your comment!
