Xiervak 161 Posted March 8, 2019 I won't lie. I haven't paid much attention to Legion lately (or the Forums) but when I saw these guys I immediately thought of @TauntaunScout 2 ellhaynes and Djaskim609 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeonWolf 942 Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) obligatory @TauntaunScout summoning post... Now that is out of the way, there are some interesting mechanics to parse with these two units. Coordinating 1.4 FD's, whatever RAM 1 does, Tauntauns being some type of Trooper unit and what that does for things like Breakthrough...definitely game-changers.

Thevshi 127 Posted March 8, 2019 Have to say, these look very good. The Hoth Troopers (sorry, Rebel Veterans ) have some interesting differences from other Corps units. I look forward to seeing more about how the Medium Blaster can work on its own. Based on this, I imagine the next wave for the Empire will be Dewbacks and Shoretroopers (which I think are an Imperial Veteran unit). I would like to have seen Imperial Navy Troopers, but I think the Shoretroopers seem a bit more likely. 2 zsavk and Hawkstrike reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MasterShake2 5,184 Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) But seriously, this unit takes basically 5 actions a turn. If you double move, you get 2 dodge tokens and a free attack action.
