Born Leader: Playing Leia in Star Wars Legion

Leia

Leia is a born leader and is ready to lead the Rebels to victory in Legion. She can inspire her troops to pour more firepower into the Imperial war machine!

Leia Organa is ready to lead her Rebels in Legion. Being a strong combatant herself, Leia comes equipped with Sharpshooter 2, and can perform attacks with her Sporting Blaster with 3 black dice or even with Martial Arts at melee range with 3 black dice as well.

Leia Organa

Ever cautious, she can command units to Take Cover, allowing 2 friendly units to gain a dodge token. At the same time, Leia can also Inspire her troops, allowing them to remove up to 2 suppression tokens!

Rebel Troopers

Following Leia’s leadership, Rebel Troopers make excellent troops. Having Nimble as a keyword, when Leia commands them to take cover after they defend if they spent 1 or more dodge tokens, they gain 1 dodge token. This can help these humble troops stick around for the duration of the battles they attend.

z-6 Trooper

To bring some additional firepower, Rebel Troopers will have a Z-6 Trooper joining them. This trooper is packing 6 white dice that can blast out to range 3. This surely will have those Imperial Stormtroopers ducking for cover, and if that doesn’t work, Leia is bringing the rain!

Coordinated Bombardment

As a 1 pip command card, Leia can order a Coordinated Bombardment. At the end of Leia’s activation, she may perform up to 3 attacks against different enemy units using 2 red dice at beyond range 4. Being immune to deflect, this Bombardment will finish off even the hardiest of Imperial forces!
