Legion AI Battle!

Managed to get a Legion AT Battle in the other day!

If you haven’t already, check out the AI system that is available for free here! It’s not meant to be exactly the same as a human opponent, but will certainly give you the chance to try some lists out when you can’t play with another person face to face!

I set up a double AT-ST list for the AI to use against my Rebel hero list! I gave the Imperials an extra 100 points since they had Vader as their commander. It was very Hoth inspired.

The AI instructed the AT-ST’s to move a bit more than I might have otherwise done if I was in control of them, but that also put them closer to my deployment zone, and it was breakthrough so that’s where they eventually wanted to be.

It was a fun battle – here’s a link to the entire thing!

Double Starhawk Battle!

Social Distancing has been really making me miss Armada! Thankfully I’ve got the Armada AI System that allows for solo play!

I gave the Rebels an extra 100 points, and ran an Arquitens based fleet, complete with Enhanced Armament and Darth Vader as a commander.

The AI doesn’t exactly fly an Arquitens Conga Line the same way I do – it tended to launch the ships directly at the enemy.

The Quasar, carrying Darth Vader, ended up speeding up to speed 3 and trying to run right past my fleet, leaving it’s squadrons behind!

Lot’s of squadrons were slugging it out, while double arc’d ships tried the same!

Here is a full video battle report if you are interested!

Jabba did Nothing Wrong!

Return of the Jedi. The third Star Wars film, yet the sixth Episode in the Skywalker Saga. My favorite Star Wars movie hands down… mostly because it was the first one I have coherent memories of.

It also happens to be the subject of our sixth episode of Double Critical – where Sean and I take another look at this movie and try to decide what from this movie could still come to Star Wars Legion.

I also noticed some interesting things during yet another watching of this movie – notable how Luke is incredibly aggressive in this film, breaking into Jabba’s Palace, using force choke, and trying to murder Jabba in his own home… we talk about this and more in Episode 6!
