I would love Clone Commandos, Generic Jedi Knight Operative with Padawan and I'd love to see Jedi Survivor units
Generic Jedi operatives/more of that in the game would be highly welcomed (similar to the generic officers). Give them a lot of customization options and let people make their own Star Wars characters OR make a good character build to proxy something not in the game already.
So much yes to a unit of chump Jedi.
For me I’d have to include Thrawn, a pirate mercenary faction with Hondo as a commander, a Mandalorian battleforce, and Ghost Crew
I'd love a Hondo Pirate Crew expansion!
Agreed, Core Update packs would be a good for the game. How about Grand Moff Tarkin !!!!
His Command cards could be “Charming to the Last,” and the three most beautifully said in Star Wars: “Commence Primary Ignition.”
I’d love Dengar, a Tusken/Jawa Battleforce, and generic Jedi
Okay so before I watch this, my top 3 things I think Legion needs are:
3) Rules update/change, bring back the old rules, or mix it up and change the rules again, because the new ones are just such a slug to play at sometimes plus now with climbing and barricades changed there's no reason to take certain upgrades and keywords like expert climber, scale and unhindered are now considerably more weaker
2) Pykes! Nerf them! They are ridiculously hard to kill, at times, this can be sorted by a simple change, make each commander in the shadow collective unique so that way they can only take one Capo.
1) GAR, need something, maybe a new core unit but at the very least two or three operative choices because since they changed exemplar, Padme's token sharing, she's not as good as before and the only other option is R2 who is great at healing vehicles and if you can get secret mission done, however I think he's just a little too easy to kill and have struggled to pull off secret mission.
Honourable Mention) Price reduction; the cost of Legion expansions is so much higher then it used to be and it's just getting more and more expensive.
Clearly a GAR player…
@@frokwan2985 actually I play all factions, why is there a problem with playing just GAR?
Agree with a lot of this. We still use the older cover/climb rules, they seem way better!
@@camwardart exactly, sure it made it harder to get cover from vehicles but at least it didn't feel like world war one trench warfare. It just feels like the game has become crit hunting and hits are pointless now because everything has cover so easily.
Plus scale got screwed, in the new rules set. I'd say even if they kept the current rules for climbing, but brought back the rolling dice for climbing to see if the unit got injured or not, that would make the scale and expert climber keywords mean something again.
Jango and Windu in the geonosis wave are really my biggest hope for this game
1. Baze and Chirrut (same rules for dual operative as inquisitors).
2. A Generic Heavy for Pathfinders (package with Baze and Chirrut)
3. Rebel and Imperial Rogue One Battle Forces.
I'd want to see Nute Gunray, Grand Moff Tarkin or a Clones Wars Era Darth Sidious (like how he looks fighting Maul and Savage).
I would love to see Savage to be added as an operative for SC. I really enjoy running SC and seeing Maul & Savage with a swarm of Mandos & Pykes on the tabletop would be awesome.
1. Tattooine battleforce including a Rancor
2. Mace Windu
3. Starkiller (such a long shot)
4. Jedi temple battleforce with generic jedi knights and padawans as core units and temple guards
5. Admiral Thrawn
All of these are great picks ngl
The 4th one would be amazing, but would be strange if it is well balanced
I'll see your rancor, and raise you Boba fet riding on its back...or John wick on godzilla, hard to tell the difference
That Scorpinec Droid is really awesome for shadow collective :-D, other ideas are also nice like the Gungans.
And any kind of alien-looking troops (to many helms).
My wishlist is for more GAR and Sep Corps. In the way Snowtroopers and Fleet Troopers are for Empire and Rebels. I think that Galactic Marines and Umbara troopers would be good thematic choices.
Also, now that we are getting Geonosians I honestly think we will be getting Gungans.
Pls Umbarans before gungans
A trandosian hunting party would be cool with their vehicle and stuff, and Twilek rebellion would be fun since both could fit in prequel and OT
I really think an LAAT or Tie bombers would be super cool, I would definitely like to see more vehicles. I think the rebels crew and new molds for Han and Leia would also be cool
Love the mounted commander idea... so many cool things could come with this!!!
what legion needs is to be fun again. id like to see more narrative campaign type stuff for legion.
Aliens:
Gungans, Umbarans, Twileks, a Hutt Syndicate merc subfaction, Dathomir
Monsters like the nexu, acklay, and rancor (The Empire and Republic shouldn't get any monsters, but more vehicles)
One of the best things about the Scorponek is that it could pull double duty as both as Shadow Collective and Separatist unit! I would love to run some of the big brother droidekas with my Seppies!
Top thing to add for me would be a unit for Ray Stevenson's character in the upcoming Ahsoka show. Not really important for the game as a whole, but would be a cool way to honor a talented Actor who passed all to suddenly and way to soon. RIP Mr. Stevenson! You were a treasure and cant wait to see your work on the new series.
I want the Nightsisters so much
Yes. Clone commandos would be great
I would love Clone Commander Wolf and plo koon and on the seperatist side we need crab droids.
I know your list was made some time ago, but right now, here are the most needed things for Legion according to me :
1) packs of cards with points and everything updated for all changed units.
2) going back to «climbing»/«clambering» rule !!!
3) old Ben Kenobi for Rebellion
4) going back to « deflect » old rule
5) Grand Admiral Thrawn
6) Krrsantan
7) Grand Inquisitor
8) 4-LOM & Zuckuss
9) Dengar
10) Snow Troopers on Speeder Bikes for Blizzard Force
Would definitely love to see some more bounty hunters! How cool would it be to have a battle force where you can take any of the bounty hunters hired to track down Han Solo in one list? May not be competitive without corp or other troops to back them up, but would be fun to play Boba Fett, IG-88, Bossk, Dengar, 4-LOM and Zuckuss all in one list.
Definitely agree with your wishlist here
My Top three (no particular order)
1) Republic Commandos
2) Kyle Katarn + Jan Ors (they're in XWING and Armada, so why not?)
3) Thrawn
I would like to see Jango, some IG assassins or at least some more IG love, and some more Rebels (the tv show) love
As always great video. Well I recon Armada has the SSD so Legion needs an AT-AT. So for me I’d say my list goes like this;
3. Location specific scenery packs (in the Death Star, on board the CR90, Jubba’s palace etc.
2. Rancor monster
1. AT-AT
Thanks. Keep’em coming!
I’d love to see Hondo Ohnaka and the his pirates/The Pirate hovertank vehicle as part of the “unaligned” faction similar to the shadow collective but able to be used in that army
I'd like a wookiee battleforce and a new corp option for the Republic, and some fixes for the B2s and Grievous' command cards.
What I'm really dying to get would be a trandoshan hunters or slavers. I would LOVE to get these, especially now clone commandos/Delta Squad and geonosians are coming out, the time is never better to release some more iconic enemies from Star Wars Republic Commando.
I could see them getting a whole battle force, with the squat shotgun and vibroblade slavers, the veteran jump-pack commandos wielding their smg's and the trandoshan elites as armored, minigun wielding commanders! Maybe even the scavenger droids could be used as some sort of anti-vehicle and corp threat? Plus they could have the flamethrower AAT's shown in the Bad Batch as a heavy vehicle! Could definitely see the battle force being able to take b1's, b2's and magnaguards like in the game. Maybe even Grievous? But could definitely see Bossk as a commander as well.
They could be a mercenary unit for both Empire and Seperatists. A lot of the basing for my Empire army is Kashyyyk themed, so I would LOVE to have some trandoshan mercenaries helping hunt down and eliminate wookiee resistance!
Also...Imperial army troopers/mudtroopers for a cheap corp option please AMG!
Droid gunship! Imps and GAR got the LAAT, Rebels got the Airspeeder, droids need their crazy bombad gunship! It's already featured on a programming card, so we know it's coming someday! Sooner is better 😃
100% agrée. They would help B2s so much as well!!
My top 5 Legion models needed:
5. Dathomir battleforce
4. KotR faction
3. Chiss units
2. Ghost Crew
1. Thrawn
After playing the game the one thing I always thought was lacking was dedicated melee units. There are a few, but not many.
Are you talking like actual troop units or including hero characters as well? I think there is a good amount, unless you are speaking about just actual generic troop units then I can see what you're saying. Of course maybe my point of view is skewed, I play CIS and we have so many options with all our lightsaber users.
I think the game has some melee, but some core options for armies that focused more on melee than range would actually be pretty cool. Maybe just a big gang of weequay pirates with vibro swords and pistols working for shadow collective or some kind of new scum force
I definitely guessed your top 3, but I'd like to see Bariss as a dual faction operative.
I'm picking the separatist over clones because they look much more uniformed and they're definitely a laugh because the CIS leader seemed more serious.
I definitely agree that we need those characters, but before doing new heroes, I think they must do more core and special forces units for the Republic and Separatists. We know that geonosians are on their way to the battlefield, but we need more. We need like airborne troopers with infiltrate, maybe ARF with already scout 3 in core units for Republic. We need clone commando squads, maybe named ones like Delta Squad or Omega Squad for special forces in Republic. For separatists, rocket B1 and rocket B2 would give a nice opportunity to get flying units in the separatists. We also need more battle forces like 212th attack batallion for Republic and maybe Geonosian battle force with a geonosian canon.
Ghost Crew YES! would also love to see Probe Droids and Imperial Patrol Troopers (Solo: A Star Wars Story)
I don’t understand how we’ve gotten small probes for cis but not the most recognizable probe in the empire
Great list. I agree with your wookies video! A wookies battle force would be sweet
That is a good list. I could go for any and all of it.
1: Baze and Chirrut 2: Saw Gerrera 3: Luthen Rael and Vel Sartha
I started making a list but it sortof just felt like variations on one thing:
More playable 'subfactions' like a Mandalorian force, wookies, gungans etc. Either by giving them new core units, or by having a commander or upgrade cards that turn specific units into core. Like a wookie general making wookies core so you don't have to take clones. Or do it through battleforces.
Rebel Iden, Operative Hondo for pretty much every faction and clone commandos also anyone who could be an operative on GAR like padawans or something
Definately not likely but new "Super Heavy" Vehicles
GAR gets ATTE
CIS gets MTT, Octuptara magna droid, or Homing spider droid
Empire gets ATAT (probably with special rules like the SSDs in armada)
Rebels get U-Wing or smth idk what do you guys think
Great stuff. One word... Rancors! Either a random "special rules" character attacking both sides or rideable beast like Boba in his finale..😁
I have a lot of my list, but my #1 wasn't on your list. My #1 is Old Ben Kenobi from A New Hope. We could also get a A New Hope battle force... similar to MESBG and the Fellowship of the Ring, an all hero army (Ben Kenobi, Luke, Han, Chewie, Leia, etc.) I would also like to see mounted heroes, also like MESBG, you can have the mounts dismounted in battle and then you have hero on foot. Similar to your ghost crew, i'd love to see Thrawn as an Imperial Commander. He could go into a regular army or even a remnant battle force.
Quite a nice list and would really love to see all that come to the game. What i am still hopping for is the droid gunship, have a feeling that it could have quite some fun configurations to run it in.
My top 3 as a Republic player would be Mace Windu, Clone Commandos or Marines, and some separatist vehicle, maybe a Crab Droid, or a Hailfire, perhaps a Homing Spider Droid or Octuptera droid (the small version obviously)
Ahsoka is also a big one for me
Jango, Mace, and the Ghost crew... agreed, all in my top.
And Gungans are fine, just no Jar Jar, leave him out of Legion.
I could see the Ghost Crew being a Special Forces for the Rebels, maybe with Field Commander Option for Kanan and Hera being a Commander (similar to Inferno Squad).
I would also love to see...
- a Stormtrooper Commander, like the Clone Commanders for the Republic.
- Obi-Wan as an Operative for the Rebels.
- Generic Jedi for the Republic; maybe as a Commander option and it opens up a Padawan Operative
- I wouldn't mind seeing a Sith padawan as an Operative. Maybe with the caveat that it can't exist with Palpatine AND Vader, only 1 of those can be in your list. Though not likely aince we're getting Inquisitors.
- Prince Xizor and a Black Sun battleforce
- Mara Jade Operative
Really want to see Mace Windu, and more operative options for the Republic.
Maybe for mounted commanders, how about Darth Vader Standing on top of a TIE Fighter like he is in "Darkness Desends" command card
Would be a cool display piece if nothing else!
I like your list. I have liked the scenarios for the special, store events. I would like to see a book of those. I like the base game, but I’m always interested in new ways to play the minis.
With us having the Imperial Remnant Battleforce, I think something we're missing is an Early Empire Battleforce.
Basically, a ruleset for running GAR units with imperial commanders and operatives that isn't proxying Imp units with GAR minis.
Also, seeing how we're getting Inquisitors - Purge Troopers would be fun, although yet another "Stormtroopers+ in black" imp SF unit is kind of pushing it
Love this wishlist! I'd like to see all of it obviously. But if I had to choose right away, I'd say Imperial Army units and some generic ISB agents or a battle force dedicated to them.
1. Mace Windu
2. K2SO
3. Jango Fett
4. Republic Commando
5. Aayla Secura
6. Qui-Gon-Jinn
Not quiet a top ten but at least a top 6 😅
I definitely agree with the ghost crew. I used proxies for half of them when I play rebels now anyway might as well make them playable characters!
I completely agree with you! Legion needs these, I would love to see Savage Opress in the game.
So surprised he wasn't added in at the start with the Shadow Collective. Makes you wonder if the game designers even followed that story arch.
@@tylerwellman8252aybe a future operative for the Shadow Collective/Dathomirians 🤷🏻♂️
I know no one wants more Imperial units, but I want Scar Squad and Imperial Super Commandos… maybe some Rocket B1/B2s so that all factions can have flyers🤷🏼♂️
I would like to see different clone legions and units, bad batch, clone commandos different Jedi masters, durge, maybe mauls brother and night sisters and maybe a bounty hunter squad pack
Bad Batch will be a 2023 release
Old Ben, the only missing character from your proverbial "Scooby Gang"
Need more operatives for Galactic Republic. Maybe Padawan's or lesser Jedi is what I would pick.
Legion could use a bit of a revision of the LOS & Cover rules and revisit of core units and broader balance, right now not a big fan of the meta and gameplay changes with force power nerfs, feels alot less tactical as a result, perhaps this is what shatterpoint is for.?.?
100% agree on the Ghost crew, Mace Windu, and more Wookies. I also want to see the rest of the bounty hunters from Empire (Dengar, 4-Lom, and Zuckus), and some Bespin love (Bespin guard, Ugnauts, Lobot, and a twin pod cloud car) to go with Lando!
You could get an entire new faction in the Bedlam Raiders from Jedi Survivor. Wouldn’t even have to make that many new units for the corps units as you could just use B1s and B2s. You can also use magnas, BX droids, and Droidekas that players already have for CIS. You could have special force units with the jet pack/shock lance characters or the lightsaber bedlam raider characters as well as having Dagan as a commander and Rayvis as an operative. You could even make the vulture droid as a heavy for them
I think we need a new core set, Retire the 2 old ones, The whole idea behind the core sets is to be able to pop one and play straight out of the contents, The rules are outdated so badly that new players are outright better off throwing away the book and just downloading the free online one, I'd like to see a new core, Maybe take a leaf from shatterpoint and mcp and have some terrain in there too, Updated rule set, All the trimmings, For the factions I dunno, I would like to see First order vs resistence maybe, Get a commander Rey vs Swolo going
I too would love to see more support for SC.
Some great suggestions, if we could only ha e 1 I would go for the mounted commanders for sure
I think the Windows XP joke is a reference to the hills of CGI grass that look a lot like the old default desktop background on XP!
Yeah for sure - I'm just surprised because my kids are too young to have ever used Windows XP - so I have to assume it's just some jokes they've rehashed after hearing about them online
@@Crabbok hahaha yeah I am definitely guilty of doing that myself sometimes :D
I would echo upgrade packs for phase 2 clones and all other wave 2 core. But I the thing the republic needs is more operatives, so I would like to see operative versions of Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan from episode 1 if we have ep. 1 maul. This could also help buff commander Kenobi with ne2 command cards.
I think it would be cool to have more Jedi operatives --Ki Adi Mundi xD
corp upgrades, definitely.
Also different clone sculpts, like 327th (with Ayla Secura and Bly!), the Galactic Marines (with Ki-Adi Mundi and Bakara!), the 41st (with Gree!)...
1) a campaign system, 2) some trandoshans or other stuffs for the shadow collective, 3) the mounted commanders and some Kind of legendary formation teaming up anakin and obi, or cody and obi, anakin and rex... etc
1- Imperial Army Battleforce (Mudtroopers, Imperial Army Conscripts, and so forth)
2- Command Vehicles - LAVr QH-7 Chariot as a command option?
3- More vehicles, period.
In my wishlist, i have a terrain piece for the sarlacc pitt with missions, the canon has made enough visits to make somethinggeneric enough to make it work.
If I get Cal...he's getting a mullet.
I don't know if it is the same In the US, but in Canada we really need a reprint of the basic, like dice, stormtroopers etc. I just got in the game and it is hard to find those in store over here.
I want GALEN MAREK!!!!!! Give me the the STARKILLER....please Crabbok! Cmon man!!! How can we have a top ten without one of the best stories and characters of the game franchises! 🙂
Ok I'm there with you - but didn't put him on here just because I'm being realistic - he's not canon atm and until they return him to canon I doubt we're gonna get him. Same goes with characters like Dash Rendar and Mara Jade.
Thx for the reply! I was afraid you will say that. I did my own custom dashboard and printed his mini, so I don’t have to wait ;-)
I agree with Rebels and nightsisters, they need to be there. Also the additional heavies for those other corps units is a must. Don’t forget a generic pathfinder heavy as well!
Custom named jedi/darksider all faction.
Saw gurrera
Jango fett
Savage opress
Mr bones
Quinlin vos
Shaak ti
Cloud city soldiers
Hutts and hutt soldiers
Hondo ohnaka and his gang
Gungans
Couracant guard
Aqua droids
Jump troopers for storm troopers
More Mandalorans
Mace windu
Random jedi specialists
Like the geonosis jedi😊
Shoot there is so much and vehicles
I hope legion gets more and shatterpoint doesnt kill off legion making it another armada
Sink houndreds jnto a game just for the maker to make something new and forget its fan base
1. Gungans. Not just one unit but a whole faction.
2. Clone commandos
3. More heavy and personnel options for most units
Saw Gererra
Savage Oppress
Tuskens
Jawas
Imperial Fleet Troopers
Before I've seen anything:
1. Padawan Tano
2. Generic Jedi General
3. Generic Astromechs/Droids for all factions
4. Admiral Trench
5. Clone force 99
6. ARF troopers
7. Crab Droids
8. Thrawn Commander
9. Mounted options/rules for heros - Obi Wan on Barc, Luke on Speeder bike, General Grevious on Wheely bike thing, ect.
10. Gungans... Wanna play gungans so bad!
I would love to see more sabers on the battlefield and maybe some how find a way to get more vehicles
I think it’s absolutely criminal that Separatists got a viper droid before the Empire, even if it’s a different model. Beyond that, I would just love the MTT to be in the game. I know it would be absolutely massive, but I think it would be low detail enough to be feasible.
1)Phoenix squad - how do we only have sabine and ahsoka, but we're getting a full bad batch squad?
2)Jango fett- they already make Boba just adapt new stuff for Jango for clone wars
3)consistent reprints - I can't find the 501st battle force anywhere
Vehicle pilot crew miniatures - basically a pilot upgrade that deploys some miniatures when a vehicle gets destroyed - would allow some at-st pilots, rebel pilots, TIE pilots and so on added to the game.
More Generic characters, or at the very lest more characters that don't rely on the movie characters. Maybe some original commanders/characters.
Special Operations.
I hope shatterpoint gets the same variety of units that legion has.
1. Quigon Jin with padawan Kenobi
2. Clone commando’s
3. Pong Krell
4. PLO Koon
5. Generic Jedi/dark-sider
6. Barris Offe light and dark side
7. Padawan Jedi of multiple species
8. Jabba and Stinky
9. Mace Windu
10. Ghost Crew
Okay, I'll play along...
1) new unit card designs for rebel troopers and storms
2) imperial probe droid
3) book of boba Fett battle force box
- official campaign books (could be cool, also kind of single player allowing)
- more upgrade card packs (with errata'd unit cards included)
- kenobi for rebels (i'm just a rebels enjoyer, but empire has sidious, so force gramps are allowed!)
It would be nice to have a droid gunship for the separatists. Those things were super menacing. It was also been foreshadowed on one of the droid program upgrade cards.
IMO Legion needs :
1) Scenarios for Heavy Vehicles
2) Going back to previous system of LOS
3) Postlogy era (even if I don't like these movies, this could create new features/systems which could be very interesting)
I would love a Gungan faction
I think there is a lot of room to expand yet in legion. I think mounted leaders should be a thing. That being said I think they would just be a separate creature troopers unit with stats that reflect that, not having mounts that are cheap transports that any single character can hop on.
The only thing on my list that you didn't mention would be Jabba the Hutt, he definitely needs to be in the game.
I like a lot of these, particularly the named characters. My top wish is for more intuitive line of sight rules. I really don’t like cover and line of sight after the latest rules update.
Episode 4 Leia, designed very similarly to GAR Padme playwise. - Though I guess she could be a Commander instead of Operative, but eithers good. But she REALLY deserves her courage 3. - She snarked BOTH Vader and Tarkin for flips sake, if that's not courage 3 I don't know what is.
1) would love to see Purge Troopers and a Inquisition Battle force coming with the 7th Sister and the 5th Brothers. Lot of cool stuff possible here, grand inquisitor, many operatives, new corps trooper, new special trooper, etc. 2) Hailfire-class droid tank with the Genesis Battle force coming up. 3) Mace Windu and I mean a couple more jedis, Plo Koon, Ayla Secura, etc.. 4) Agree with you, Mother Talzin and Savage Opress and 5 ) Crimson Dawn ( Dryden Vos, Qira, they could join the Shadow Collective battle force to flesh out that faction. That was my top 5.
Personally, I want Special Operations to get some more love. It's actually really fun and an inclusion of the Shadow Collective would be awesome!
Otherwise, I'd be pretty down for some more murder-bots, BT-1/0-0-0/Imperial Probe Droid.
9 and 10 are all i care about, and maybe some cool droids, like the sniper droidekas or hmp gunship
Hmps would carry the B2s and they would look so good! If I’m not mistaken, CIS is also the only faction not to have a carrier and that’s weird
A cool option should be BIG vehicles for each faction. Not quite sure how they'd work on the tabletop, but larger vehicles like the ATTE... Or slightly smaller vehicles like the ATAP
Or hell, even a flyers expansion for things like the true LAAT gunship or Droid gunship, the empire already has the imperial shuttle
I think clone commandos as special forces, in order to balance it I think the Seps should get a set of Umbaran's as special forces. The third thing I would put in would be boring for seasoned players, but an expansion that includes something like 10 simple learn to play scenarios that slowly teach the most important rules to new players. But that's just me.
Definitely Corps unit upgrades. This is a huge weakness for all the units that aren't Rebel Troopers, bog Stormtroopers, and the like. More than anything, that's where I want to see releases: existing things that can be filled out. Same with a Wookiee battleforce. More things to fill out what's already there and more options to field themed armies I think is where AMG should focus. I'm less excited about specific personalities because they could be at it for 50 years and not get everyone. I'm more interested in the army game, and think the personality heavy releases can be focused on for Shatterpoint.
Likewise, I agree with mounted commanders and the droid from Book of Boba Fett. Both would be great addons that don't necessarily pull the army in different directions. What other mounted commanders do you think would be cool. Maybe a snowspeeder Luke (not just an upgrade card)? Obi Wan on his Utapau dino or on his Gendy Clone Wars speeder? Endor Leia on speeder?
One thing that's different for me is I'd love to see more Mercs as a playable army. Where's the Corps Raider? Where's the Pyke Heavy? That goes back to unit upgrades for me and the ability to fill out what's already there and allow for more themed armies.
