No it doesn't.. but that's not how I'm taking the context of the game title. To me, Legion is referring to the thousands of table top general's who are ALL playing this game en-mass. It's not referring to the actual model count.

Just like the word 'Armada' doesn't imply 1 capital ship + small escort. And we all know how that turned out

Id rather see Corsec get an army before they get one, don't just assume people haven't read the EU because they dismiss the idea of scum armies

I've read enough the books (everything up to Chewie's asteroid demise) that included ones that featured Xizor and the black sun (some of the worst legends books it's fair to say) The Hutt leagues never did anything of significance so bringing in their military forces wouldn't be very interesting, an Organized crime group can threaten the empire with influence, wealth, bribery and assassinations without ever having the chance of effectively winning an actual battle.

Sorry if my comments came off like that. I never said anything about preference or opinion, or the dismissal of scum. I mentioned, specifically, the comments on the board of scum or criminal organizations not being "large enough" or "powerful enough".

I just gave proof that these organizations are indeed more powerful and have larger militaries than the Rebel Alliance. I completely respect opinion. If one doesn't like or see Hutt Cartels, for example, making sense, thats cool. I think the idea of the Vong is the worst thing that ever happened to star wars lol. But people often use size and power as a measuring unit, making the Vong a contestant. No, please no lol.

In the end, Legion is a squad based game. And seeing Corsec, a Hutt clan, a Black Sun Vigo and his cronies fits right in with the size of the game. I never dismiss opinion, we all have them. Thats just mine. Will they do it? Who knows. But if Black Sun enters the game, im in 100%.

I want a generic imperial officer. Somebody cheap to fill that second commander slot.

People keep comparing it to Armada where each side has a Fleet Admiral who is always a named character. But that was a single slot, and this game allows for two commanders so it seems more analogous to the ship officers in Armada, who can be named or generic. I'd love some generic options for list flexibility, and I expect we'll see some after a few of the big names are out.

Personally I think the "generic" Commanders are going to still be named. General Madine and Governor Pryce for instance, or some other lesser known characters from the comics, movies, television, and books. The Admiral comparison in my opinion is more apt than ship officer as ship officers are not required ina fleet while Admirals are.

I just think theres so much scope for the 'scum' to be developed into all sorts, if they just tack people like Boba onto the Empire lists and thats it, they are missing out on huge potential in SWL.

Deathtrooper squads would be cool.

I really want to see rider units - Banthas and Dewbacks.

Shoretrooper all day long. One day I'd like to see an alternative core box of First Order Vs Resistance.

i think that tank from Rogue One will show up soon
