The Empire is bringing in the big guns to take out the Rebels in Star Wars Legion. Will this support gunnery system be enough to defeat the Rebellion?
The Imperial E-WEB Heavy Blaster Team is a brilliant support option for your army. Being a weapons platform, the E-WEB may appear cumbersome, but it has a few options as far as maneuvers are concerned.
Its main weakness is getting flanked, but its Reposition and Full Pivot abilities allow it to quickly move and pivot the E-WEB for a better field of fire. Its attack pool of 1 red, 2 black, and 2 white dice make it a formidable support team that can hold their own against the incoming Rebel army.
The Rebels keep advancing! More firepower! The Empire has you covered with a Barrage Generator. This upgrade gives the E-WEB better chances at thwarting Rebel advances with its Suppressive keyword and addition of 2 white dice to your attack pool. Hold those Rebels in place until reinforcements arrive!
While your army advances, the E-WEB team can remain behind and cover key objectives or terrain. An HQ Uplink is needed for them to be able to stay in communication range. This upgrade gives the E-WEB team the ability to issue orders to itself during the Issue Orders step. This can give them the commands they need to finish off those Rebels.
Now that they have an HQ Uplink, the E-WEB team will use Pinned Down. This command card can select your E-WEB team and kicks in when you perform an attack against a unit with a faceup order token; you may shuffle that token back into its order pool. This can cripple a Rebel team that was waiting for orders to Advance on your objective. Outsmart and outgun the Rebel in Legion with the E-WEB Heavy Blaster Team!
