but he's made the personal decision that he can't afford to keep up with both Runewars and Legion and anticipates liking Legion more.

I hope there's a scorpion in his Legion core box.

I want to find a scorpion in my Legion core box! ... except a) I'm not buying into Legion until Dooku and a Separatist army is released, and b) I'll get my scorpion when we finally get Malaana.

*And just in case y'all didn't know, Dooku is named after the Japanese word "doku" which means "poison" or "venom" and so they modeled his lightsaber after a scorpion. Yep, there's a reason he gets to be one of my favorite Star Wars characters.

Didn't even buy Death Knights for his Waiqar army.

Well, I haven't either, but I'm still playing and loving it! Waiqar is the best! Sorry that he quit. That's no fun. I guess I can imagine how my X-wing friends feel. Not that I've officially quit X-wing, but I haven't been to game night in several months, and have been playing weekly Runewars league matches during that time, so it looks to them like I've quit. I like both games, but I respect that it is really tough to balance two fantastic games.

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't going to wind up playing Legion, too. I play a lot of games, though.

For the first time in my life, I think I'm going to main Rebels just so I never have to paint that much white armor ever again.

I want both games to rock and succeed, I just forget not everybody can/wants to follow more than one game at a time. I'm lucky enough to have a good group and get games regularly and it pains me to see my runewarrior brethren go with their dice unrolled.

After having played SW CCG (Decipher), SW RPG (WOTC), SW miniatures (WOTC), SW TCG, SW LCG, X-Wing, Imperial Assault, and Destiny, not to mention RW which now fulfill my wargaming interest, I just can’t see myself getting into Legion. Between collecting SW Lego, action figures, Funko products, you get alittle burned out buying Vader after Vader in different formats/materials/sizes. Maybe if Legion goes PT, I could be interested, but I’m a big “no” for now.

With that said, at least Legion will help further solidify FFG games in the tabletop wargaming world and might draw people into at least taking a look at RW while they’re ogling over Legion.

Armada is the SW game for me. RW is pretty awesome and hits the fantasy wargaming hard for me. I have some xwing stuff, but haven't touched it in over a year. It's hard to get any games to the table, so I'm selecting the ones I enjoy more. While both rely on dice on the attack, the defense feels better in both Armada and RW, much less random. Legion hasn't garnered much interest here, so sticking with RW. Waiqar and Uthuk!!
