Vehicles

There are many types of vehicles in Star Wars: Legion, from lumbering tanks to soaring airspeeders and everything in between. Every vehicle unit in Star Wars: Legion also has one of the subtypes listed below with their own special rules:
  1. Ground Vehicle
  2. Repulsor Vehicle
Rules that affect a vehicle unit affect all its subtypes unless otherwise stated. Regardless of subtype, all vehicles have the resiliency rules listed below.

Resiliency

Vehicles do not have a courage value. Instead most, but not all, have a resilience value. A vehicle that does not have a resilience value has a “-” on their Unit Card where the resilience value should be.An oblong hexagon shape with an orange cog inside.When a vehicle with a resilience value has a number of wounds equal to or more than its resilience value, after the effect causing this is resolved, the vehicle gains a vehicle damage token.When a player activates a vehicle unit with a vehicle damage token, roll a white defense die. On a blank result that vehicle performs one fewer action during its activation.A vehicle can only have one vehicle damage token at a time and can only gain a vehicle damage token in this way once per game.
Nicholas’ AAT Tank has already suffered 3 wounds and suffers 3 more from an attack. After the attack is resolved, Nicholas’ AAT Tank gains a vehicle damage token.Because a vehicle can only ever gain a vehicle damage token when it has damage equal to its resilience once per game, if Nicholas removes the vehicle damage token from his AAT Tank and it suffers further wounds, he does not gain another vehicle damage token.

  2. Ground vehicles can pivot and reverse.
  3. Ground vehicles can end a move with some part of their base partially overlapping terrain.

  5. Ground vehicles can be in melee but cannot be engaged.
  6. Ground vehicles block LOS as if they were a piece of area terrain consisting of the volume of their silhouette.
