You know, the more I see that guy, the more it looks like a hero figure. It's clearly a clone veteran (article supports this).

The more I look at this picture, the more it looks like an amalgam of Rex and Wolffe. So really, "generic aged clone trooper".

And while it's not an exact match, the shoulder pauldron does have some similar properties to the Arc Trooper's armor. The horizontal grooves are what threw me off initially.

Not IA but boxes

Thank god we got another Legion article. I was starting to think that game was dead.

You know, we joked about how they were going to be scraping the bottom of the barrel pretty soon for Legion article content...

And then they go and have an article about moisture vaporators. MOISTURE VAPORATORS!!!!

Enough with Legion already! I wasn't interested from first mention, and really? here's a little bit of plastic that will cost you £50 to stand things behind... wow

getting a bit sick of this nonsense now, sorry to rant but we just want the article that should have been before the worlds prize announcement!

Hm... I personally think these vaporators & crates look pretty cool
I wouldn't mine use some to 3D-fy me ImpAss a little.

Have we gotten an article about additional troop movement pallets yet? Because if not, I almost guarantee that's coming, too.

I like how, as an additional insult, they didn't include enough crates to make this even remotely interesting to IA players without having to buy multiple packs.

There is better custom 3D stuff out there that costs a lot less that is designed for IA tiles.

Just wait until we get the Moisture Vaporator speed painting article!

Oh goody, the daily Legion article was posted...

That will be the new norm for a while the crates look nice though.

Man, I miss the days when we were getting two or three articles every Friday.

Plus, since it seems we've got a built in Legion article every other day, this seeming decreased rate of articles seems even worse.

I'm so stoked. You can buy PLASTIC BOXES for Legion...

I can't believe I look forward to Friday X-Wing articles, only to have FFG take a dump on my lawn/hopes.

Next week, I'll have to steal that one!

I was invited to attend a special unboxing event of Legion and got to play the game a couple of days ago.

I recall people wondering about the scale of Legion vs IA minis...I don't now if this has been posted, but here's a comparison pic I made at home.

Actually like that Vader.

Minis look good. Downside (well, for me) is that you have to glue them. Because of the thick base they're taller than the IA minis.

Shouldn't be hard to base it on something thinner, and it is a great pose, but I don't want to buy Legion just to get it. (Plus I still have all my IA figures to paint...)

Downside for me, I would have to buy a whole box for a single Vader figure

They are so close, this got me thinking. I would love if FFG released Ultimate Figure Packs that were figures only - no cards. They could have the legion scale and base, come assembled and painted (or printed in color - whatever). You could use these figures for IA or Legion. Obviously they only release these figures that appear in both games, but would be great for all the uniques as well as stormtroopers, etc things that are used in both.

Since I am a non painter, I would pay a decent amount (I’m embarrassed to admit how much I would pay) for those. I also like the sturdier taller Legion base for IA. Not sure if it fits in the IA square. I guess that would be an issue.

Well, judge yourself.... as I just snapped a pic:

Looks like the fit to me. I’m sure we’ll see a lot of fan made cards for IA using the new minis from the community.

Yup, they do look like they fit. I mean, a lot of people use thicker custom bases anyway, which are usually thicker than the standard base. Looks like I'll be buying some Stormies and Rebel Fleet troops for some much needed pose variety.

Where do you get that price?

I thought I put in this thread, but I guess not. Here you go: http://combatzone-scenery.co.uk/Games/IA_Skirmish_Sets

Just put a cheap washer under the IA base and lift them to Legion height. That is what I intend to do. Gives me two more units of storm trooper, another unit of Fleet troopers, snow troopers and endor troopers
