Heavy Weapons

By AldousSnow, in Star Wars: Legion

Are Heavy Weapon unit upgrades marked or denoted to fit a specific unit type, ie: Corps, Spec Forces, etc?

The question is, can I attach a Proton Charge Saboteur to a unit of Rebel troopers from the core set? Or a Z6 trooper to a unit of Fleet troopers, etc? My pre order hasnt arrived yet. Sorry if this has been covered.

The Heavy Weapons Troopers have a specific unit type listed on their card.

This seems to be done mostly to prevent someone wanting to put the HH-12 on a unit of Fleet Troopers, but also serves to provide some thematic upgrades for otherwise generic units.

Eventually we may see specialist upgrades that are not restricted to a particular unit, but for now the cards have specified "_____ unit only" on them.

Thanks guys. I honestly assumed this would be the case, but I was really digging the idea of mixing heavy weapon units. Perhaps one day.
