    Just bought the Blizzard Force expansion, I can’t wait to play it as my General Veers has yet to be played; it’s only fitting he gets his actual force to use lol

    I love your "on a budget" videos so much, and I'm so happy to see an updated one for Legion! I'm just now getting into Legion and the new Moff Gideon expansion and Imperial Remnant battlefront rules are actually really appealing to me (and may suit newer players methinks, from a collecting standpoint). As I haven't collected many multiples of same unit types yet, being able to field a more eclectic group of diverse imperials seems pretty cool!

    Thx for the video ! i did go on a Blizzard Force not long ago , here's what i buy : - 2 Blizzard Force 300$ - 1 Star Wars: Legion core set 120$ - 2 Imperial Stormtroopers Upgrade 50$ - 1 Imperial Specialists 25$ - 1 General Veers 20$ - 1 Darth Vader Operative 20$ Sold the rebel side of the core set plus the fift speeder bike unit And you're all set for a nearly complete Galactic empire blizzard force on a budget ! ( and 2 extra Darth Vader model🤨😏 )

    Probably only needed one blizzard Force. I personally would of just got 1 more unit of speeders if you brought the core. Also you're never gonna use 6 units of Snow's. Standard blizzard Force is 2 units of Snow's, 2 storm heavys and 4 bikes. The extra blizzard force box is such a waste

    After collecting most rebel units and heroes in the game, i really regret not starting at the Echo Base Battlebox. If you're reading this and leaning heavily on the Rebel faction, Echo Base Battlebox is a great way to get great troops and a nice force to start learning how to play. The only thing daunting for a new hobbyist would be painting white.

    Why would you recommend Palpatine without the guards? If you're going to recommend Inferno right afterwards, you should get Iden, NOT Palps.

  • @tylered85
    @tylered85 Жыл бұрын

    For beginners to the game itself, I think the core set is better. Snowtroopers require a little more finesse in my experience. I'd also recommend ISF and Iden over any terrain packs. Same with Deathtroopers. Deathtroopers are easy to use and with double surges, you just cant go wrong with that. Shoretroopers are definitely a must unless you are just a really big fan of Stormtroopers and want to swarm your enemy with them. I think for the extra 12 pts though, switching from white to black die for damage is much much better.
