This! I REALLY want a Snowtrooper Upgrade expansion!!!

It's probably been posted here before, but this is a truly epic game table for the Battle of Hoth. Created by Beasts of War for the Salute 2015 convention in the UK. The game was designed for 10 players: 6 commanders on the Rebel side, 4 for the Empire. The forces included 4 AT-ATs, 8 AT-STs and 6 snow speeders. I think everything except the AT-ATs are WotC Star Wars Miniatures. I couldn't find the size of the table, but it looks like 4x12.

I think a lot of us would be stoked if AMG launched a 15mm scale star wars game. Maybe start with clone wars era this time (since its better suited to huge armies and vehicles).

Yeah I dont want to pay 6 extra points for endurance because the Dewback has spur which it shouldnt even have in the first place.
they didnt have to give it relentless though.
it couldve been speed 2 with charge or enrage instead of relentless.
theres so many different (and better) directions they couldve gone with the dewback.
instead they tried to make it into a bad dinosaur version of darth vader... why? darth vader is bad enough. why would I want a bad dinosaur version of him too? it makes no sense.
The Occupier Tank is better than the AT-ST now. And open transport is a lot of fun. But its still hard to justify 150 points for the Occupier Tank in competitive lists. It cuts into your activation count way too much.

They were already discounted 



HA! 

You're right, of course, but that's one of the changes I filed under niche. Cheaper dewbacks may lead to them actually being used, which is great, I wouldn't say they're competitively relevant as of this moment. 

I think my favorite "niche" change was the transport rules. Getting a couple of Gav tanks and some snow flamers sounds incredibly fun.
 

Don't discount the changes to the Dewbacks. They are 15 points cheaper base. I know a lot of people don't like them, but I have had tremendous luck with them and in the couple of games I played recently, them coupled with the cheaper full scout teams did decent under Iden and Veers.
That being said, it would have been nice if they had been a tad more generous to the Imps and maybe done some add changes. Particularly when you take into account the points reductions to the Phase-1s on the GAR side?!

Not all Imperial Heroes wear capes


 

Rare production pics of Darth Vader looking very much like his Christmas 1977 Action Figure from Kenner.
In case you were wondering, the Imperial Army Officer he is speaking to is Captain Edmos Khurgee.

So GAR and CIS get field commander and Rebels and Imperials dont....but Rebels and Imperials get transport and GAR and CIS have no transport.  Both transport and field commander are extremely powerful keywords.  I feel like they'll come out with a release soon enough giving CIS and GAR transport heavies and along with it give Rebels and Imperials field commander.  Seems pretty balanced to me for now

Concentrate all Whip Cream on that Pumpkin Pie Destroyer!
I don’t want Diets to get through!!!
Cheers all 🥂
 

Examples of my unit base band colors

Finished up Maul, demonstrating why he is a Surf Lord!

For the Republic I'd like to see Ahsoka Tano, Republic Commandos and Gungan/Naboo auxiliaries.

I'm fine with the rebels being vehicle light. But then I'd also be happy if not every faction had mirror versions of units to each other. I'd like some asymmetry.

Dwarf spider droids would be amazing. I'm probably in the minority here, but I would love to see more vehicles in general for every faction. 

Given the introduction of Flaw Cards, General Pong Krell would be interesting -- plus some mechanics that encourage a style that sacrifices the lives of clone troopers. He'd be pretty fun to paint as well.  Similarly, my son thinks its a shame that Grevious can't lash out against a random droid and get a boost of some sort.
I need Ventress, though.

imperials need dark troopers

Hey everyone, I know with the new RRG there has been a lot of debate on the changes, I am far to new to give my opinion on those changes and I am a pretty casual player of the game. I figured I'd set up a tab for just some wish listing on new units or rules people would like to see in the future from AMG. I personally want to see the dwarf spider droids as a support option for the CIS.  

I mark the place of the miniature in Green Stuff, then i add texture, additional elements and paint. Clean and safe 😉

I think it's more than just 2 units of Dark Troopers (DTs). I looked at this photo of the scene.

I counted 9 DTs on one wall. There were 2 walls. That give Moff Gideon 18 DTs. Figure 2-3 per unit so we're looking at 6 or 9 units of DTs.
Is it Friday yet?

Perhaps, but I can honestly say Davy made more public interviews more recently about the direction the game was going and in all likelihood, after it was known at FFG that the game was going to AMG. Maybe his vocalizations of his vision of the direction of the game (however vague) didn't sit well and or perhaps he hadn't full cleared the content of the interview with senior leadership and they took exception to it. 

I mean, this really feels surreal. Phase 2s in stock. B2s in stock for longer than an hour. Are we sure we're not living in a simulation?

I loved it. We were going all geeky for Bo-Katan and crew showing up. And, indeed, I love the added elements concerning the helmet way. It will be interesting to see how much of this season is about Mando escaping not only the Imperial Remnant, but also the trappings of religious fundamentalism.

You are looking at it wrong.
I'll say it again: Legion is not portraying an entire war. There is no campaign system, no capturing territories, no greater conflict. Just individual raids/battles. 
The criminal faction could be trying to steal supplies from the Rebels, exchanging hostages with the CIS (we see Hondo try something similar in the Clone Wars cartoon while in charge of a group of pirates large enough to be a Legion army), trying to intercept an important transmission from the Republic, trying to prevent the Empire from sabotaging moisture evaporators, etc. We also see criminal elements band together when it is advantageous to do so, such as the Shadow Collective in Clone Wars, or even when the Empire shows up to interrupt a spice exchange. 
Each game isn't necessarily part of some larger war, just like with X-Wing.

I would love to see army wide themes for Rebels and Imperials. I would also like some love for Vader, Dewbacks, and Ewebs.
