Painting Some Separatist units

Went full Vallejo this time.
I did another bunch of B1 last time, trying different paints and techniques but in the end they were too much different, so this time they share the same scheme.
For anyone interested, step by step below.

I did a black base coat (use a black primer from Action) for everything first.

B1 :
1) Two thin coats of Bone White (72.034). Does not need be perfect.
2) 1 coat of Mummy White (72.449)
3) Goblin Green (72.030) for camo.
4) Black Wash (73.201) everywhere.
5) Black Primer (74.602) for weapons and binoculars. I used a primer because I don't have the normal black.
6) Dry brush the weapons and binoculars with Chainmail (72.053) very slighly.

7.1) (Optionnal) If the droid is a commander, Moon Yellow (72.005) for the marking
7.2) (Optionnal) If the droid has a rocket launcher, dry brush with Bright Bronze (72.057) the tip of the weapon then dry brush with Tinny Tin (72.060) not the whole tip this time but before the tip (to have a gradient).
7.3) (Optionnal) If the droid has a E-5C (see last picture), dry brush the tip of the weapon with Bright Bronze (72.057) then continue with a dry brush of Amethyst Purple (77.128) and finish with a dry brush of Ruby Red (77.126) by doing a gradient.

Droidekas :
1) Tinny Tin (72.060) and Chainmail (72.053) for the base.
2) Bright Bronze (72.057) for the tubes below the arms.
3) Fluorescent Red (72.157) then a little of Ruby Red (77.126) for the eyes.
4) For the tubes, I added a little bit of Aged Metal (77.159) as a wash.
5) I added Rust (72.609) here and here on the whole mini.

Barricade :
1) Two thin coat of Bone White (72.034).
2) Goblin Green (72.030) and Earth (72.062) for camo.
3) Black Wash (73.201) everywhere.

Base :
1) European Mud (26.807) everywhere.
2) Small rocks. Don't remember where I bought them, Action I think.

Tactics Discussion What is the Empires "Thing"

41 Upvotes

Hey guys.

Me and my friends have recently gotten into SW Legion.
We've played 2 games each against each other.

I chose the Empire as my faction.

While we're still not completely firm in rules we enjoyed our matches so far.

However both of them (1 playing GAR and the other playing CIS) seem to have their basic mechanics going, resulting in a somewhat effective gameplay for both them.

I however struggle with figuring out, what exactly is the Empires Mechanic and how to make proper use of it.

Thanks in advance!

First Star Wars legion mini this took me a while and I’m worried applying a wash will make him look worse. Should I only add it on his white vest?

Product Availability Any ideas when Mandalorian Leaders and Customizable Leaders will be reprinted in US?

I miraculously found the Army Box in stock and grabbed, but it seems those 2 boxes are exceptionally rare. I know the army box is getting a reprint, but is there any info out there when the leaders boxes will be available again. They seem relatively easy to get in Europe, but due to the duties that's about as good as getting scalped on eBay.
