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.

Posted by on

It's time for another weekly update for Legion Expansion. As memorial weekend comes to a close we're really close to seeing the Planetary Annihilation PTE pushed to the stable branch, allowing all players access to the Legion with no hoops to jump through.

As we're getting close to this miraculous occasion we want to get your feedback on the beta. If you can take five minutes to complete this survey we'd greatly appreciate it.

It's a light patch this time, but it contains some important balance changes. We're focused on trying to improve unit diversity and get away from the Enforcer spam meta we've seen take hold. With the health drop we're hopeful that Monstrosities will need to be added into the mix to act as a shield for the fragile Enforcer, as well as making T2 vehicles more relevant. While we also include a nerf to the Starcannon we're considering additional measures to make anti-orbital defences more effective against it, so stay tuned.
