	rules		Troopers are the bread and butter of Legion. These are the foot soldiers, the generic infantrymen without whom nothing else is really possible. A Trooper is the easiest unit type to play, as they generally do exactly what their cards say and form the baseline for interacting with other rules.

			There are two subtypes of Trooper, added with the Clone Wars set:
			* Clone Trooper: Can share any green tokens (Aim, Dodge, Surge)with other Clone Trooper units within Range 1 and line of sight of their own unit. This can lead to some truly horrific firepower when combined with their Fire Support rule, or a nearly immovable line of plasteel if they're behind cover.
			* Droid Trooper: Droids don't get Suppressed and ignore Poison tokens, but don't get increased cover from Suppression tokens and are treated as Vehicles for Ion tokens. This is generally an upside, as Ion isn't too common and they can take cover behind other CIS units.

Any movement with a Ground Vehicle is measured from the notches in their base, and they can bulldoze through Trooper units, both friend and foe, to get where they want.

However, a great number of Repulsors are required to make compulsory moves, which means you need to plot out their movement course ahead of time to avoid any accidents. In terms of raw speed, these options can't be beat.

	====Movement====		====Movement====
			As with a number of other Fantasy Flight systems, there are special tools used for movement. Legion uses three different tools with a corresponding length and number of pips, and are jointed in the center of the tool. Which tool you use is determined primarily by a unit's speed, listed in pips on its unit card underneath its portrait.

			Movements are made by slotting the tool against a unit leader's base (or in a slot, if it has one), then moving the leader any distance along the tool. Every other mini in the unit is then set up at Speed 1 of the leader, so if you have a unit with lots of minis it doesn't take forever.

			Some units have compulsory moves, which has to be done before anything else, but doesn't take up any of that unit's actions or trigger any effects based on movement. Such units also tend to have a really bad time if their run into walls or tree trunks; just ask that Scout trooper in Episode VI.

	====Command Cards====		====Command Cards====
			Command Cards are how Legion determines both initiative and, to a lesser extent, activation order. Command Cards each have number of pips in the top left corner, and a number of units listed in the middle. Each round, players pick one of the cards in their Command Hand and puts it facedown. Both players flip their cards at the same time, and the player whose card has the fewest pips both issues their orders first, and has the first activation. If there's a tie, players roll a red defence die for tiebreaker, described further below. At the end of the round, the Command Card each player used is discarded and cannot be used again that game.

			The basic Command Cards are as follows:
			* Standing Orders: 4-pip, 1 unit. This is the only basic Command Card that does not get discarded when it is used; instead, you place it back into your hand.
			* Assault: 3-pip, 3 units.
			* Push: 2-pip, 2 units.
			* Ambush: 1-pip, 1 unit.
			In addition to these, each faction has a number of Leaders and Specialists that can give you options for your Command Hand. However, you must have two of each 1, 2, and 3-pip cards, and then add Standing Orders on top of those, for a total of seven cards.

			''Command Control Array'' (2pts.) - Vehicle only. Use Coordinate at range 1-2 instead of 1. Opens up some interesting ping options for CIS, letting them spread out a little more so long as STAPs and AATs can bridge the gap.

	''Integrated Comms Antenna'' (3 pts.) ~~is a~~ Droid Trooper-only ~~upgrade~~. Essentially a reverse of the Commanding Presence upgrade, it allows your unit to be issued an order if it's within range 4 of the commander instead of the normal range 3. It's a good use of some leftover points if your force is spread out. However, if you've got a spare Command slot on your general, Commanding Presence (which was reduced in cost to 5 pts. by the rules errata) is probably better since it's not restricted to a single unit like this upgrade is.
