........
They naturally have lower activation count......
Due to their units costing more......
How in depth would you like this explanation?

To the point where it might make sense? You seem to be forgetting that every faction has pricey units.
Vader + Veers + Storm Trooperx3 + AT-STx2
Dooku + AATx2 + B1x4.
I could make tons of strong 7 activation lists with non GAR factions. What makes you think GAR has an advantage?

Determining blue player by lower activation count would be good for them then, its much likelier they are running with 7 or 8. This would then gove them the option to be blue player more often which then gives the republic player the ability to stack the battle plan cards more in their favor.

Alright lets get this thread back on track! Im calling it right now, Anakin's one pip will be called The Chosen One
Come on guys, let's get Nute Gunray.
He's got the best lines in the movies. Featured heavily in the movies too.

I hope he'll have white clothes on his 1 pip card, grey on this 2 pip and black on his 3 pip
His 2 pip could be I don’t like sand

Ventress will be for the CIS
Maul is for the rebels (he spent more time working with Spectre cell than for the CIS)
😂
Not really a fan of getting Maul for this faction from both a lore and gameplay view. Ventress, tactical droids, and the council seemed like better choices from a lore level. Makes me wonder how we lucked out and got Bane over the safer choice of Jango (who I think would work better for a future Scum faction)????
As for gameplay wise CIS getting another expensive lightsaber commander.........I guess? At some point they will have to get a support commander or just a cheap one. The generic commander will eventually come out for this faction so unless I'm missing something this just feels like bad release order???
Also I'm in the camp that Maul would be the best option as the first commander for the Scum faction. Between the Clone Wars, Rebels, and Solo we have seen him as an independent power way longer then CIS.
Edited by RyantheFettit is possible that Maul will be for a scum faction. The Devs did say that they were going to have some content from the Mandalorian coming around the end of the year. With the end of the last season of the Clone Wars featuring Mandalor, Maul being in command of Deathwatch, and Deathwatch being the Mandalorians in the flash backs in the Mandalorian, This could indicate a Deathwatch/scummy release for the Clone Wars erra.

Yeah she will...

I think Anakin's 3-pip will be called "The Chosen One," his two-pip will be called "STILL the Chosen One," and his 1-pip will be called "Did I mention I'm the Chosen One?"
Which one will you choose?

Cad Bane did a lot of work for the separatists considering the clone wars. He worked personally with Dooku and even Sidious had a direct line to him for specific jobs. Makes a lot of sense that CIS got him over Jango
I'll say that i heavily suspect this as Operative Maul, with the option for them to release commander maul for scum later. that would mean Maul would have access to potentially 6 command cards, luke and vader style, and also work for 2 factions.
There's other potentials for this, like letting old ben work for rebels.

Sorry was not clear! I love that they did Bane over Jango. I am just shocked they did not go with the safer option (will fix that in the comment).
Maul I have an issue with how limited that would make the faction feel. Lore I get is debatable (should have been Ventress!), but man is CIS really gonna get a third light saber wielding powerhouse. Just seems like bad management to not give the faction more diversity in list building. And Maul as expensive operative would be fine if they had cheaper commanders............. This has become my white whale for Legion.
GAR I could see nothing but crazy Jedi stuff with even supports being crazy expensive. CIS? I thought more Nute lol
Old ben would be cool one to get, but I want my adult Ahsoka!!!
Edited by RyantheFettThey could try and make Maul cheaper somehow. Cheap lightsaber character (4 dice melee saber) but that was my point that CIS just does not need another melee commander now and surely does not need another 175 + figure.
If Operative, you could take an army of characters like you can with Rebels. Jyn Cassian K2s0 R2D2
Luke Cassian K2s0
Maul Dooku Grievous Cad Bane? These guys need their command cards and there is no way to fit them in. Luke/Cassian K2 you only miss out on one serious card

i don't think Maul is going to be a cheap character, he has never been weak - his first appearance had him kill a jedi master, and he has many impressive feats since.
But i also wouldn't say CIS doesn't need another expensive saber user. the two they currently have operate extremely different from each other. If maul is properly differentiated from dooku and grievous he will be very welcome.
That and as i said before, i'm very sure that either this cycle or next cycle we'll get a specialist box with a generic officer

No, it’ll be “I’ll try spinning, that’s a good trick” and gives him Full Pivot for the turn.

yeah. I'm more interested in what CIS needs
If he's an operative i guess it doesn't matter and we'll have to wait to get a cheap to mid-level point commander
