Many of these characters (most glaringly Jango) are long overdue for a Legion release but have not even been hinted at by the developers. Take a look at the list of 24 minis above, each of which have their own sculpt, their own unit card, their own interactions with each other. I primarily play Republic and share a collection with my brother who plays CIS. I’ll be candid, the initial emotion I had myself was more like…annoyance. First, it means that there are a lot of fans, and math being math at least a certain percentage of those fans are going to be somewhat prone to anything ranging from mild concern to actual anger upon hearing news that there is going to be a new minis game in town that covers A LOT of the same ground as their favorite game, which they have spent hundreds (sometimes thousands) of dollars on and poured dozens of hours into painting. Though true data is hard to come by, owner interviews have suggested that it’s in the top 5 of miniatures games fairly consistently and the online fanbase seems to grow every day ( including our Patreon by the way, IS THIS ENOUGH FOR YOU JAY?!). The bases look to be exactly the same size as Crisis Protocol, time will tell if the “feel” of the game is similar as well. This is the end of the facts, but this is the internet damn it, you came here for opinions! The starter set will be released in June of next year but we can expect articles starting January and a demo streamed from Adepticon. The hosts mentioned the fact that the game will feature use of terrain in a particular way and that elevation will be significant (which, I should note, would be a departure from Crisis Protocol where elevation is basically just area terrain). It’s clearly Clone Wars-centered and unlike the miniatures in Legion these are stylized to generally look like the cartoon characters rather than a plastic version of the real deal. during the stream, other characters such as Mace Windu (bahaha, named after his novel and not even in the Core Set!), Padme, and Cad Bane were hinted atĪtomic Mass also had a short twitch stream today to introduce the game.Clone Commandos (two poses and GOD DANG IT PUT THIS IN LEGION PLZ).

A trailer was released earlier today that shows off the very nice-looking miniatures, which are as follows (best I can tell): Shatterpoint is a new smaller-scale battles game that immediately calls to mind Atomic Mass’ marquee game Marvel: Crisis Protocol. What is Shatterpoint? (the actual answer) I’ve been informed by my superiors that I’m once again on thin ice and they seemingly deleted most of my review of the 2003 novel, so I guess I’ll talk about this new minis game instead.

Windu’s descent into a jungle planet where his padawan has apparently gone rogue answers a question that many of us wanted to ask but could not find the words: what would it look like if an author watched half of Apocalypse Now, then fell asleep, then wrote a Star Wars book about it? The novel’s title refers to a fairly wacky force power Windu demonstrates that I would basically describe as half the Fifth Edition spell “shatter” and half that Feng Shui stand that the gross old dude used in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean, aside from the part about the talking dragon. It features Mace Windu as the main character and now stands primarily as a reflection of the “end of innocence” the United States suffered in the early 2000’s. Star Wars: Shatterpoint was the first original novel set in the Clone Wars era. Out of nowhere, Atomic Mass Games (AMG) announced a new skirmish-level Star Wars miniatures game yesterday, but what will that mean for Legion?
