and here i am, 2 years later... watching this video. I bought the Clone Wars core set 2 weeks ago.

I watched a lot of "How to play videos" including yours. There's nothing awful about them. It's just I understand a lot more when I see the actual game being played. This helped me understand the rules a ton. Thanks so much!

Great video. The rules are taken into account accordingly, the camera angles are good, and you guys seem charismatic and not monotone. Well done

I’m a 40k guy and when I realized that you arent’going to paint them I got a tiny stroke. yOu HaVE t0 pAInT tHeM

Finally, a play through where I'm confident that at least most of the rules will be followed correctly! :-P

[blackbriargaming]

Nailed it guys. Not a single rule missed! Luke probably wants to be handing out some dodge tokens next turn ;)

[a-blivvy-yus]

You missed a few opportunities to shout "HELP HELP I'M BEING SUPPRESSED!" there...

[imperialadvisoraremheshvau]

The Imperial player is way to friendly. Kick some butt man! You are our flag bearer!

[NeoByteNL]

Great playthrough! Just the right amount of humor, close ups and explanations. Looking forward for more of these.

I love this channel! I've been considering pre-ordering two of the Clone Wars boxes, and heading to my FLGS. Great video guys!

This was easily one of the best play throughs I've seen of this game so far! Very well done!

I originally thought I had caught a couple nitpicky rules things, but after double checking, I was mistaken. So I included them here anyways in case anyone else gets confused. 1) Around 13:30, the trooper unit had one suppression token after the rally check. If they were within range 1-3 of Luke (the commander) then they could use his courage value (3) (but only for checking whether they were panicked). I think this means that rebel trooper units near Luke can stack up to 5 suppression tokens and still just be suppressed and not panicked (though as soon as Luke dies, they will be very panicked). 2) Originally thought the speeder bikes Impact keyword should have converted the 2 hits to crits, but the Impact conversion comes in the timing chart after applying dodge and cover.

Awesome video, can't wait for more!

From many many years of playing 40k. Your next round should be focusing on objectives.

Remember you can win with 1 single model left on the board, if you have the most victory points. In this case control of the objectives.

That giant mountain in the way doesn't matter, my AT-ST has Blast ability. Inconceivable!!!

[FamderianLogic]

I can't really tell where Luke is in the video, but I assume he is within range 3 of at least two rebel troopers units. Play Return of the Jedi. Give your air speeder and your troopers with the impact weapons the tokens.

Your first move is to place your air speeder between the AT-ST and the land speeders. This will allow you to utilize both your weapons. One against the AT-ST and one against the speeders.

You will also be likely targeting the rear of the AT-ST so if he turns to attack back he is giving Impact 1 to all your other units.

This should cause some chaos in his backfield that you can use to clear objectives and claim your own.

Try your best to maximize the suppression removal of the card so that your troopers can act freely. They are going to be your best sourcefor claiming objectives.

I'm glad I found this channel because I need to learn how to play legion and have no experience at all with the game so you have gotten a subscriber my friend!

[RollingSolo]

This was a lot of fun to watch guys. Great job!

[khristienpennanen]

I could not be more excited let’s watch!!!

[dejohann]

I played warhammer as a kid. Undead. Recently found out about this and just bought the core set. Looking forward to it all

[letsgrowtogether]

You're amazing Rodney. Your videos continue to increase in quality and you help me learn so easy. I credit you for countless memories of gaming with my two sons. Keep it up. Mr. McDonald is also great to watch so thank you as well.

Question for the community ----> I'm combining the 2 starter sets together, should I... A) put the Droids with the Stormtroopers? or B) put the Stormtroopers with the republic clones.
On one hand we have light/dark side cohesion, on the other we have visual cohesion
