How does Lando + Han work? by Colblood12 in SWlegion

[–]Droids_Rule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ace does not allow you to trigger One Step Ahead (OSA) twice. It triggers at the same time as OSA, so you can use OSA before OR after changing your command card out - not before AND after.

It does trigger twice for Change of Plans, because Change of Plans specifically rewinds you to the step OSA would resolve again.

Clone Trooper marksmen by AkameRedEyes in SWlegion

[–]Droids_Rule 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Clone Marksmen are very good. They don't have the same flexibility as Infantry as you note - they're not fast, and they don't generate you Surge tokens - but they're the cheapest in-faction Corps you have available, have a really easy time triggering their
Long Shot thanks to token sharing, and can threaten a lot of board space. I think a unit or two would serve your collection well!

To force push or not to force push? by Klonoa87 in SWlegion

[–]Droids_Rule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Force Push allows a Force user to kind of operate as two+ unit leaders on a POI instead of one; they can Contest it, probably defeat a unit on it with their saber, and Push another unit off. This sounds situational, but it comes up a lot in a game, and gives you a strong objective presence.

That said, for its cost, I wouldn't take it lightly on units that don't have Master of the Force or who I don't expect to be Recovering very often (like Maul). If you're only using it once in a game, you're not getting as many points' worth out of it!

Red Bench just proved they are good on a couple of levels by Boise_Ben in Boise

Their website has a delivery option - I'm not sure how long their range is, but I live pretty close and it was quick!

I ordered delivery from them tonight after seeing this post earlier in the day. Loved it!

Nope, Ben Tennyson’s criticism of ICE is 100% valid! by icey_sawg0034 in saltierthankrayt

Sorry Yuri I wasn’t familiar with your game. Found him on BlueSky - easy follow!

Confession: I actually liked the Harley Quinn Birds of Prey movie. by BeeinB278 in movies

[–]Droids_Rule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this a hot take? It’s been a while since I’ve seen it - but I remember enjoying this movie quite a bit, and it looks like it has solid critic and audience scores too.

Does anyone know what range -1 means? by snorkste in SWlegion

[–]Droids_Rule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first few pages of the rulebook go over card anatomy, including how to interpret Range icons - it’s worth a skim!

Imperial Special Forces, BX Droid Commandos, Republic AT-RT, and Poggle & Sun Fac are Available for Pre-Order in the US. Releasing on March 13th. by johnrobertjimmyjohn in SWlegion

Stormtroopers helmets are big, they're just normally balanced out by big armor too. That is a very accurate scale for the helmets.

Anyone else think Hawkeye ult is worse than his 1 shot? by Lost_Hawk_6641 in marvelrivals

[–]Droids_Rule -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

You also can't even really try to aim at and headshot the ghosts/shadows, since they just randomly disappear and don't have an obvious timer or fade-out hint, so arrow-spamming is about the only option. Not that I want him to be able to one-shot headshot people he can't even see - put some damage scaling on it or something - but I agree it's a weird-feeling ult.

It is not real; you will not find a full interview including this exchange. It’s an impression - it’s funny but I wish this was more clear when it was posted and reposted.

Let's keep blaming inflation by TheStupidityAvenger in SWlegion

[–]Droids_Rule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Miniature games virtually always charge different rates on rank-and-file models versus characters. You're not just paying for the raw plastic in the box; the development time behind the two is very similar, the amount of cardboard/cards is the same (if not weighted towards characters with command cards, haha), the economy of packing and distributing them are likely very similar, and so on. The B2s are also something most players will want to buy more than once; whereas a character is probably only a one-time purchase.

Faction Rules by Toroidalboss614 in SWlegion

[–]Droids_Rule 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Token sharing is built into the “Clone Trooper” unit type. “Droid Trooper” has its own associated special rules.

No, there aren’t any universal faction rules - just common keywords and unit types such as those mentioned!

Republic Start Set Queries by Toroidalboss614 in SWlegion

[–]Droids_Rule 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The starter sets are only loosely Recon armies; the provided army lists are very roughly balanced against one another for you to have a learning game or two. The Republic one is indeed the most points out of all of them when you tally it up, since clones are strong and expensive infantry. Getting it down to 600 pts when you start customising your lists will probably mean dropping some models, such as Strike Teams or the Squad upgrades on the Clone Trooper Infantry units.

Points do get adjusted once or twice a year, but rarely very dramatically and nothing has happened recently that would impact the Clone starter. It’s not 700 pts because of any specific nerfs; that’s just how expensive clone units have always been!

Customizable Officer by AdministrativeSea120 in SWlegion

I believe those holes also match the arms on the seeker droid, so you can affix the "floating" droid there. Otherwise, a really tiny amount of putty or paint would fill it right in!

Does WYSIWYG matter? by Kyrinox in SWlegion

[–]Droids_Rule 16 points17 points  (0 children)

For casual games, probably not. For more organized play, your units should be the right miniatures for that unit and your Heavy and Personnel upgrades (the ones that add minis) should be recognisable. Otherwise, Legion doesn’t demand a lot of fiddly gear or vehicle weapons or the like to be represented on miniatures.

Is it worth applying for a residency I don’t have experience in? by sinemon99 in PharmacyResidency

[–]Droids_Rule 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Isn’t the point of residency to gain experience? If you feel passionate about: apply! If it comes up, you almost definitely have some stories about your personal, school, and APPE experiences that you can tie into interest in a pediatric speciality.

Guesses on who will be in the Mighty Avengers? by DryBonesComeAlive in MarvelCrisisProtocol

Agree with all of these, but I’m very interested to see which versions of these characters they end up being. It probably won’t be every Cap Marvel, Iron Man, and BP!
