Darth Vader is a dangerous opponent at any distance and this current loadout will show you the true power of the Dark Side in Star Wars Legion!
Darth Vader is making his slow but steady march up the battlefields of Star Wars Legion. The Dark Lord of the Sith has a slew of devious special abilities. Deflect allows Vader to spend 1 dodge token to potentially reverse the incoming ranged damage with a surge. Vader is immune to Pierce and is also Relentless, allowing him to attack after performing a move action. Vader has his lightsaber by his side, giving him a devastating attack of 6 red dice!
Darth Vader will truly be unstoppable once he gets to be Implacable. As a command card, Implacable allows Vader to suffer 1 wound to shuffle his order token back into the order pool. This can help him get that extra boost to take down the Rebels for good!
Vader is slow and purposeful in his movements, but that does not mean that he is outmatched at a distance. Force Push is a Force power that gives Vader the actionability to move a unit by 1. He may choose an enemy trooper unit at range 1 and force it to perform a speed 1 move, even if it is engaged. Vader will have ultimate control of the battle engagements around him.
Saber Throw is another Force power that Vader can use to surprise his enemies out of melee range. Saber Throw allows Vader to perform a ranged attack with his lightsaber against an enemy at range 1-2. Vader must use half of his dice rounded up. A 3 red dice attack at up to range 2 can give Vader quite the extended reach to dish out some pain!
