Tier lists like this one are meant primarily to drive discussion. These are just my opinions. If you disagree, let me know in the comments! Rebel Troopers are perfect for taking the fight to the Empire in pitched battle—but the conflicts of Star Wars: Legion are many and varied. Sometimes, you don’t want a cheap, expendable infantry unit that’s planning to go toe-to-toe with Imperial Stormtroopers. If you’re planning on running infiltration, sabotaging enemy operations, or taking a sharpshooter’s role, the Rebel Commandos are the perfect ones for the job. Both dice hit: leave the result. You would have to roll into two crits to get a better result, which is just a 1/64 chance. As Star Wars: Legion’s first special forces unit, the Rebel Commandos truly differentiate themselves from other troops with their specialized training that grants them abilities not seen in other troops. For example, Rebel Commandos thrive on covertly inserting themselves into critical areas of the battlefield. This makes them naturally proficient at maintaining a low profile, helping them improve their cover while they infiltrate Imperial operations. Well this is a big tier. You have to fill out the meat of your roster somehow, and you’re probably going to start here. Leia Organa

The Rebel Alliance can recruit new members from across the galaxy, finding pilots, soldiers, and medics among those who hate the Empire. Plenty of beings can take up a blaster rifle to fight Stormtroopers, but there are a few who are willing to push the boundaries and do whatever it takes to keep the Rebellion alive. Saboteurs. Snipers. The Rebel Alliance's most dangerous operatives now entering the infantry battles played out in your games of Star Wars: Legion.

Fighting over an area is good. Fighting over an area you have to travel to is bad. You probably want to cut this one over Breakthrough. Building legions of elite Stormtroopers and dogged Rebel soldiers to skirmish on the tabletop might evoke Star Wars’ grand infantry warfare, but what’s better than seeing your favourite Star Wars heroes lead the charge of miniature battle? Luke Skywalker is arguably the best commander in the game, but if you’re keen for an addition or alternative to spice up your force from outside the core set, look no further than Leia. The strike team is the fashionable way to field snipers currently, and they play very differently from other units, so this section will be considerably longer than the Full Squad section. Strike teams are just so damn interesting, yeah?

That is a lot of text; basically it means you can delay up to two wounds until after your next activation. It isn’t great on Commandos themselves, but boy was this tailor made for Luke. Yup, whiny farmboy has a gear slot. One extra Luke activation for 8 points? Yes please.

Strike Team

Breakthrough can be a rough one for a sab list, but remember you win on ties for this one too. Mine your side of the field and make sure nothing gets to your deployment. Try not to give up too many points. In addition, most advertising networks offer you a way to opt out of targeted advertising.

It also combos with command cards like No Time For Sorrows, making the No Time For Sorrows peekabo a little easier. Summary Releasing alongside the Han Solo Commander Expansion in the third quarter of 2018, the Rebel Commandos Unit Expansion is poised to shake your Rebel armies to their core. Read on for a closer look at what you’ll find inside this expansion! Heavy Weapon Team. This is the unique keyword for the Strike Team. You must take a heavy weapon, which is either a DH-447 Sniper or Proton Charge saboteurs. This makes a very fragile but potentially efficient (offensively) two man unit. There are some important special rules that deal with casualty removal with a Strike Team, which we will talk about below under the Corner Peeking section. Strike Team (Sniper) Tactics
