    I wish they had an AT-AT objective expansion when you had to take down the AT AT before it reached your side, I like recreating the battle of hoth, endor etc and that would make it complete

  • @Revjiggs
    @Revjiggs 2 роки тому +3

    I've watched all the WTB on a budget videos now and I've noticed a couple of things. the first is that they follow a very simmilar pattern on what to buy. Core set then more troops, then specialist personel, cards then a bunch of commanders which i'm not sure is right for every faction. surley if you are on a budget you want to focus on getting a playable 800 point army as quick as possible. So core set great first great, another troop choice is also good becuase at this point you have the minimum . at this point you want to be recomending cost effective units to push you up to 800, like death troopers / dewbacks for maybe T-47's/ wookies. At this point you are maybe another unit like an AT-ST to finish it off and then you can think about other commanders to swap out the core set ones. at this point the you may have spent like $270 (using the full ff price) but have a playable army. 2 cores a specialist and a padme are going to get you to about 800 points as well but you'll have spent $292 and not really have that interesting an army. 2 core sets is an option to get started but its a lot of the same and not a lot of fun factor.

    Thanks for these updates. I've beencollecting Legion for a while, but haven't been able to get any games in yet. So your content has had to take the place of play testing, though I don't know how our play styles match up.
    On a side note, I just got word that Yoda is finally on the way. I did learn a lesson: ignore the extra shipping and make pre-orders individuallt. I've been waiting on my Magna Guards due to them being on the same order as Yoda. Frustrating to see them on store shelves already when I don't know if I want more than 1.

  • @blackfocker3727
    @blackfocker3727 2 роки тому

    I beg to differ on Rex. The only nerf he really got was that he went up 10 points. The change to "Take that clankers" was less of a change and more of a clarification. I never thought that you could use a shared aim token to benefit from "Take that clankers", so all it really did was stop you from using the tactical key word. And in my honest opinion if you are using "Take that clankers" on any of the three units that the GAR has that naturally have tactical, then you are wasting "Take that clankers". The best use of "Take that clankers" is with Z-6 Phase 1 squads. I also do feel that a pair of AT-RTs is worth it, but maybe not early on and only ever used as a pair.
    Edit: and before you bring up Offensive Push, I really don't use it too often as I feel that there are better uses for the 4 points.

    • @Crabbok
      @Crabbok  2 роки тому

      It's a massive change when you consider that "free" aims can no longer help you. 99% of the time units who would do this had either Tactical 1 (Rex, Arcs, or Clones with a Training Slot) or a free Aim granted Electrobinoculars or the Phase 1 Specialist - so they could essentially Move + Shoot. Now you cannot move and shoot - which is a tremendous nerf to "Take That Clankers". The improved range is virtually negated by the fact that I could have simply moved closer and had a free aim to get the exact same effect.

  • @ajlynch123
    @ajlynch123 2 роки тому +3

    I know meta isn’t everything but the BEST Republic list is only 8 activations, two of which come from the Core set. This means a new player is only six buys away from an amazing list
    The list is of course the Yoda-Padme-Saber. So if you follow Sir Crabbok’s buyer’s list, get Yoda, Padme, the Clone Specialists (for the Clone Commander), and the crashed Escape Pod (for R2-D2). Skip the Infantry Support Vehicle and the LAAT (both are expensive and not liked in the meta at the moment) and instead by an extra Phase 1 and Saber Tank (right now on Amazon the Tank is about $15 more than the ISV and $10-$15 less than the LAAT).
    The list may be challenging to pilot.. maybe? But it’s pretty cost-effective on a budget and will win you tons of games!
    Do I run this list? Nope! I prefer fun to meta and I suspect Crabbok does, too. That’s why I bought tons of Wookiees and Wookiee Fluttercraft!

    Awesome video Crabbok, I mainly play clones and I agree completely with this list. Must try and get phase II clones at some point but they are very expensive and always sell out quickly whenever I see them on sale. Still can't find Chewbacca for sale anywhere and it's been like this for awhile now so not sure when I'll be able to grab him. I've had to sub in the bowcaster Wookie from the Wookie set in the meantime. It's a shame what happened with Rex, I used to run him all the time and never bring Jedi but since his nerfs I've used mainly Obi and/or Anakin. Nice to see the Infantry Platform make the list, I think it's a great heavy for the clones as points wise it's not too expensive so I can see it fitting into lists easier.

    I was wondering if doing it with LEGO and just buying the carts and rules and stuff would work?
