Your command card also lets you issue orders to your units-for example, the command card shown above lets you issue orders to two of your units in proximity to one of your commanders.Įvery unit in your army has a corresponding order token showing that unit’s rank symbol. In the upper-left corner of the card, you’ll see a number of pips-whichever player revealed the command card with fewer pips acts first throughout the round.

All command cards have a few vital pieces of information. In the command phase (the first phase of each round), you and your opponent each select one of your available command cards and reveal it simultaneously.Ĭommand cards, like the one shown above, represent the tactics you employ as you give orders to your units. Each player starts the game with a hand of seven carefully chosen command cards. The first part of giving orders to your troops is to select a command card.

Every unit in your army will activate each round, whether it receives orders or not, but giving orders to a unit gives you a powerful level of control over when that unit activates, as you’ll see below.

Naturally, the first step in destroying your opponent on the field of battle and completing your objectives is to deliver orders to your units. At the end of six rounds, the player with the most victory tokens (earned from objectives) wins the game. Star Wars: Legion is played over the course of six rounds as you and your opponent duel over objectives on a battlefield of the Galactic Civil War.
