Which should I pick? Starter Sets for Star Wars Legion
The new starter sets are out, and I think it's a great time to compare them to one another. First off, I started with the original trilogy starter set for Star Wars: Legion. Since then, the game has continued to evolve. I think the new starter sets are the best so far, and they set a new gold standard for getting started with an army-sized wargame. Let's see what's great about them in general before looking at each of them individually. 1. They focus on one faction alone. It’s been standard in wargaming for a long time that starter sets include a rulebook, two armies, plus dice, tokens, etc. which is.... fine. It still has that nostalgic feel of opening a box and discovering the contents. However, it’s always been a bit of a clunky experience. First off, it’s difficult to split it 50/50 with a friend. Usually, the tokens, dice, and rulebook come in uneven numbers, and you have to decide who gets what. The new Legion starters are better in this regard: I pick my favorite arm...
