TRAILER



ABOUT LEGION EXPANSION

Created by the Progenitors in the dying days of the Pro-Com war, the Legion represented humanity's last ditch effort to defeat the Machine Liberation Army (MLA). It failed. When the superweapon was unleashed which disabled the MLA the Legion were not spared. Millenia later they have awoken and seek to win the unwinnable war for which they were created, in memory of their masters.

A labour of love put together over the course of one-and-a-half years, this expansion introduces over a hundred new units, forming an entirely new faction equal in size and scope of the original. You can use it in multiplayer, or play against the AI in skirmish, both are fully supported.

The Legion lack the mobility and numbers of the MLA, instead their focus is on raw power. While the enemy are many, the Legion's armour is strong and their guns powerful. They do not focus on early raiding or rapid expansion, rather they prepare themselves to strike a single mighty blow that both begins and ends the battle.

The Legion Expansion is installed from the Community Mods section of Planetary Annihilation TITANS. Simply search for "Legion" and choose to install the Legion Expansion.

Awesome

Holy **** was that bit at the end an homage to the original TA opening? With I believe the core commander in the original? That's pretty awesome.

Super good work you guys, glad to see what started with us all only get more and more professional ^^

Hey! You guys stole the name "excalibur"! Get your own damn name!

Yes, that's an homage to TA.

Lies.

He says as he ****'s up another quote

I actually intended to do so

Looks amazing. Seems like it would make a great campaign?

TOTALLY caught that too!! Can't tell you how many times I watched the original TA video with that game. Awesome trailer everyone; can't wait to try it out!!!

Hey to all the developers who made this, ******* well done! If I was a millionaire I'd give you all money but I'm poor so all I can do is show my appreciation, Uber should take you guys on and make this official community expansion.

So a quick question for you @Nicb1 why does the article lack a description for the legion defenses? I think they have enough differences to deserve it's own place

well, I chose not to write stuff for the more generic defenses like laser turets and stuff because they essentially do the same thing as the vanilla ones. Not much to say of interest about them gameplay wise. e.g. besides "it has a flame effect". Like, there's no special usage for them per say (besides hive and shield) - you just use them normally as you would vanilla static defense.

The goal for me was to have a concise unit guide about the important differences that you need to know about instead of a complete unit guide that covered everything.

That's not to say the article can't be unit complete though. Alot of other people chipped in to make it besides myself, and so goals can certainly change or expand. The lore part is definitely fun to do and read. Unit complete is most likely something that will be done in the future either by myself or someone else as an update to the article .

tl;dr
I'm lazy

It should be noted that the Hive is covered.

Are you sure you are lazy?

Can confirm. So lazy.

Man, those hives are scary, killed 2 of my destroyers.

Vulnerable if you can notice and target them fast enough, tho.
