Star Wars Legion Black Sun Enforcers

 Star Wars Legion Black Sun Enforcers

The Black Sun Enforcers are the foot soldiers and troop choice for the Shadow Alliance and Empire. At 48 points for the base unit they are expensive and premium troop choice. With a max range of 2 they need to use cover very well to ensure that they do not get focused on my the opposing army or make use of the A-A5 to get them closer to the enemy lines. The high points a costly but you do get Red defence and Close Quarters dice, so yes they are more expensive than the Pykes but should be more durable. 

    The models are big and at first I thought that Atomic Mass where guilty of scale creep but from going back and reading up on them and watching them in the animated series they are big, so hats off to AMG to staying true to the source material. The unit has 2 nice upgrades to choose from; Scatter gun If you opponent is infantry focused or the Mag-Det enforcer if they like to take vehicles. You can also add in another enforcer which gives you a cached dodge token.

My first completed unit is below and drew from Sorastros painting guide, which if you have not checked out are well worth while a watch.

Def need to invest in a cheap light box and get some better pictures taken. Up next will be the Pykes as I have at least my  2 troop choices complete. From reading over Christmas I will either need more Black Sun or Pykes, just need to get some more games in to firm up that choice.

Oh and Happy New Year,
