A friend recently brought over his Legions minis that he's been working on and we played a skirmish match.

The image linked is the setup from some time mid-game.

The matchup was Republic Clone Troopers (him) vs. CIS Droid Troopers (me). The Droids took it in the end, mostly due to General Grievous being an absolute truck.

I found the game a lot of fun to play. We've played a bunch of Fantasy Flight's games - Runewars, X-wing, and Imperial Assault among them - and I'm starting to recognize a lot of common mechanics among their games. This was was relatively snappy and I enjoyed the command/activation mechanic.

Minis and terrain were painted by my friend, who is a much better painter than me, lol. I was really blown away by the ship in the center of the play area, which he kitbashed from this Zurg Mothership toy from the Lightyear movie:

I love the Red Mars look! I did that with my Skitarii; the color is just the perfect backdrop for "Martian" looking minis IMO.

Mars? What's Mars? That's a pretty normal Geonosis look :P
