Deploy the Garrison: Season 4, Episode 2 Title: Delayed, Not Derailed – Our New Legion Era Begins
Manage episode 480899808 series 3394495
Welcome to Season 4, Episode 2 of Deploy the Garrison!
Kris and Alan dive deep into the early days of Star Wars: Legion’s new edition, reflecting on first impressions, game feel, and what it means to step into this fresh era of play. From the removal of Emperor Palpatine to the growing pains of terrain changes, they don’t hold back.
We also discuss the broader industry challenges tied to shipping and tariffs, including the announced delays for June’s releases, and what that tells us about the health of the game’s production pipeline.
Highlights include:
– The impact of tariffs and logistics on hobby gaming
– Wookiee woes and Kris’s first 2025 game
– Alan’s local event hype
– Updated design direction and organized play expectations
– And yes... size does matter (sometimes)
