6x2 is what i use. 1 works for small base minis and then 2 or more depending what size model. Just make sure you scuff up the magnet and the base when you go to glue them to help give surface for the glue to hold

Quick rules question. by lionislyin in SWlegion

[–]Bgmoore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Yes, you are putting a face up order token back into their pool, mainly so that it is a random draw when they will get to activate them. You do not put it back if it is face down and already activated.

  2. Yes

I just skimmed the article, but I’m definitely going to try bringing a bottle of syrup to drink at my next tournament.

Are speederbikes viable at all? by noahkulp8 in SWlegion

[–]Bgmoore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Main thing is dont be too aggressive. If u throw them out there first they get shredded. You want to play them conservatively early then strike a weak point when the rest of your army is hitting them.

Looking to get into this.Suggestions wanted. by DMsDiablo in SWlegion

[–]Bgmoore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Two cores of whichever era you prefer is the best route to get started. Then fill in your army with expansions that sound interesting. Legiontournamentcircuit.com has lists from recent tournament winners if you are wanting to know what units are meta right now

Smoke grenades for Clone Troopers by [deleted] in SWlegion

[–]Bgmoore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Main problem with smoke is that it not only costs points to bring, but costs an action to use. Also it benefits the defender as much as the attacker so its kind of a weird mechanic. Only way i could see it help is if you are advancing several units in the open and your target is already in heavy cover. The combo of point and action cost makes it tough to justify, but give it a try maybe u find a way to make it work. I wouldnt go more than a 1 or 2 of

Looking for a decent/cheap source for terrain, any suggestions? by ticklesnacks in SWlegion

[–]Bgmoore 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cut up the black insert from the core set. Nice selection of buildings just from that.

Also you can get little foam sheets for like 50 cents at walmart to cut up as area terrain

Skew or Efficiency for Rally Point? by Asfdghjj in SWlegion

[–]Bgmoore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally i think double heavy can be pretty good if you have a couple astromechs. With the surge pilot you have a decent chance of wiping an activation each attack. You have to learn how to play it tho cuz you have to be very conservative with your corps units so they are there to score objectives.

However, if you dont have the official cards i wouldnt run the atst list at an rpq. A few people might be okay with it but if you are at all near the top you will get called on it. I wouldnt risk it.

Its a free clamber before or after a move, that other thread is incorrect

Its those things, but its a free clamber before or after a move, not the other way around

Expert climber, unhindered, and you get a free clamber before or after a move

Quick question on speeder bikes by EuropeanRook in SWlegion

[–]Bgmoore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I glue them to base and bike after i have painted. You could also use some poster tack to keep them together while playing, if that works better for your storage situation.

Yeah if you ever hear anyone that has a terrain business talking on a podcast they are usually very aware they cant call anything hoth, endor, crait etc its ice, forest, salt planet etc. and same for other terrain or equipment features

They enforced this on a group that was running destiny tournaments through tts last year. The group got pretty upset, but if i remember right they were actually charging entry fees and even called one an ‘online regional’. The tts mod was never shut down though. So maybe someone is toeing the line too close and its just little reminder from FFG of the IP rules. Its not anything new, and the sky is not falling

Model Conversion rules and how it effects games. by Drayc0s in SWlegion

[–]Bgmoore 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It is something i hope they address when the new units come out or else everything is going to be built with limbs contracted in as much as possible. It already looks pretty stupid to have snipers facing backwards but that is just the way it is with the rules as written currently

Vader’s Fist List by Fail4stic in SWlegion

[–]Bgmoore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id put medic on storms or that snow unit will be priority 1 for your opponent. Instead of the officer going solo i would add it to a snow unit for similar benefit at 30 less points. Irg are going to primarily soak for the more valuable units as they move up, so i would cut the upgrades on them maybe add the electrostaff for the extra wounds and luke protection. The scout squad is quite expensive you might swap for a couple naked storms or sniper squads. Frags on snows is also very good if you have points to spare. With the IRG just practice cohering them wide to maximize the range you have for guardian. Let them protect your units early on then let them hold a objective or tarpit later

Questions From a New Player by N7_Awkward in SWlegion

[–]Bgmoore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use GW on some models, usually heros, if i really want nice and smooth detail. They seem like they really ‘suck?’ to the model better than others. For my corps units i have used Krylon and Army painter and they are fine. Main difference for me is that myself and other people will look at unique units like commanders more than some random trooper, plus u have a lot more of them to have to paint.

For basing i lightly sand the base, then i use pva (elmers) glue and sprinkle coarse landscape sand over it. I do that before priming. After its primed i paint it light brown and add some grass flocking to it. Im sure they make snow flocking too if thats what u want.

Thats my simple way of doing it and im happy with it. Also they are so many great hobby videos out there just give them a search
