  • Warfare Wednesday Redo

    After the one-sided battle last week, we have challenged ourselves to repeat the battle, with lessons learned. Per our house standard, the victor (myself with Separatists) have not modified the force, while the loser (Republic) has made some adjustments. With those changes, a bit more time to analyze and consider the battlefield, and (hopefully) a…

  • Legion Results – CIS victory

    As planned, we played our latest round of Star Wars Legion. Not as planned, it turned out to be an overwhelming CIS victory, with the Galactic Republic surrendering midway thru turn 2. I don’t necessarily agree with the “lost cause” nature of the fight at that point, but it was certainly heavily slanted, and highly…

  • Warfare Wednesdays

    With my local group, I have started a series of games on Wednesday, which I am titling as Warfare Wednesdays. These are intended to be exclusively wargames – Legion, Armada, X-Wing, or similar games, able to be played with a small group and not take up multiple sessions. Last week, we played a 400 pt…

  • A whole new space

    Following on my acquisition of the Twilight Imperium mat, I opted to add a new Star Wars: Armada mat, using the same grippiness. This will hopefully minimize the shifting of pieces during the game, and provides an alternative graphic. The mat was purchased thru Break From Reality Games in Seattle, and (unlike the prior one)…

  • Revised schedule

    With the start of the school year, and associated Football and Marching Band commitments, we are altering our existing gaming schedule. The Warhammer RPG campaign is the unfortunate casualty, this campaign was going strong, but is being mothballed for the time being due to no room in the schedule. After November, when the schedule settles,…

  • Legion game 3, part 1

    We managed to play the first couple of turns of our Legion game on Monday night, with my Separatist army vs my son’s revised Empire army. Mistakes were made, forces were killed, and thus far the game is a draw per the objectives. I am leaning towards an Empire victory by the end of the…

  • Dooku & Grievous force

    Figured I would detail exactly what forces I have been fielding in the Star Wars Legion games, looking for any feedback or suggestions. As a newer player, I fully expect I am either using tactics poorly, or not fully understanding the options or mechanics. No doubt a lot is personal preference, but most of my…

  • Legion, game 3

    Set up for another round of Star Wars Legion, with my Separatist army (unmodified) going up against a revised Imperial Army. The battlefield is set, and the units deployed, and the forces are ready to start (as soon as we have time enough). On the field, we have a rather symmetrical field of forests (light…
