Legion Expansion

Planetary Annihilation: TITANS mod |

The Legion Expansion is Planetary Annihilation's first fully 3rd party faction modification. Adding in the Imperial Legion, a fully compatible, AI capable set of units and buildings to enhance the experience of PA. This mod exists due to the communities wish for a second fully realized army to conquer the galaxy with. PA is nothing without its cooperative teamplay on large systems. The Legion is fully compatible with simultaneous team games and comes with a modified Queller AI, allowing offline skirmish play. The Legion comes with its own set of commanders that grant the controlling player access to the Legion unit set. Simply select either commander in the lobby and deploy! A special thanks to those who have offered support and followed this mod from conception to its current state, on behalf of the entire team we hope that you will enjoy our work.

A complete breakdown of all the changes made since the release of the public beta.

Posted by on

Following our release of the public beta of Legion Expansion we've not been surprised that people have found ways to break the game, either technically or in terms of balance, in ways we hadn't considered. Well this just won't do!

Your feedback has proved invaluable to us and hopefully these changes will make the Legion Expansion experience even greater. And don't worry, we'll be regularly updating the mod as new issues arise. We're already hard at work on making the Nova a more useful unit.

Be aware that the Planetary Annihilation PTE servers have gone offline, so Legion Expansion will be temporarily unavailable in multiplayer. We expect the PTE to leave beta and be released to stable within the week at which point multiplayer will work once more. Skirmish continues to be available.

Please keep the feedback coming in the comments!
