New Legion Buying Guide from Imperial Discipline! [Blog]

By groggydog, in Star Wars: Legion

New! The fully updated Legion Buying Guide for summer 2019, and the last one before the Clone Wars factions drop this fall. It's everything you need to know for buying into each faction as a beginner, with a whole host of helpful links to boot. I want to hear your takes on what I've said, so let me know in the comments or below.

Apologies for the separate post - I think these bigger articles are better served on their own.

The only thing I disagree with so far is ranking Pathfinders above Fleet troopers. Both I think are on par for challenge of using properly, and pathfinders are competing for the Special Forces slot which, as you point out, is generally filled by sniper strike teams.

Totally fair! The primary reason I put them with Jyn is because that whole tier is about finding unique faction identities. They're very unique to Rebels, whereas Fleet Troopers don't necessarily bring anything special to the table in the same way. That is certainly a debatable point (as is their overall efficacy), but one I feel best represents the experience of the faction for beginners.
