Don’t fret the boo-boos. In I wrote in my beginner’s guide to painting miniatures, I am, indeed, a beginner painter. I won’t be winning any painting contests any time soon ever. The 35mm reference is due to the miniatures eye height, which is 35.7mm from the ground. Fun fact! What scale are the official Star Wars Legion model kits? He worked out that the average height of a Stormtrooper is 5’11”. This means that a Stormtrooper falls into the category of a 75th percentile male. What scale are Star Wars Legion miniatures? Almost all tabletop games use a sliding scale to scale down larger objects. This is because if a large vehicle was at the exact same scale as a miniature, the battlefield itself would become overcrowded. It would be hard to fit all models onto the battlefield and the miniatures would have less space to move in. A ubiquitous sight across the galaxy, white-armoured stormtroopers strike fear into the hearts of all those who would oppose the Empire. Though their uniform armour and rigid tactics emphasise the crushing weight of Imperial might, Stormtroopers can be surprisingly flexible units that serve a multitude of roles in Imperial strike forces.

Add new personnel to your Stormtrooper units! A Stormtrooper Captain miniature is ready to lead your troops into battle while a Stormtrooper Specialist supports helps improve the unit’s aim and gear. There is of course the issue of the Stormtrooper armour. Up until now, we have been working on the height of a Stormtrooper without armour. That is because the eye height of a 75th percentile man is also taken without any shoes on.I both highly recommend the game Imperial Assault ( you can learn more here) and also painting miniatures that are included. It’s like nerd meditation for this long time Star Wars fan. So while the exact math points to Star Wars Legion miniatures being around 1:47 scale, official kits point to 1:48 scale. Both Bandai and Revell sell Star Wars model kits which are at 1:48 scale. They both also sell model kits at 1:52 and 1:53 scale which will also work well with Star Wars Legion. The sliding scale We also know the scale height of the Stormtrooper is 1 17/32″ or 38.89mm. In 1/47 scale there are 6.48mm in a foot. 38.89 / 6.48 ~= 6, so a stormtrooper in armour is 6′ tall. Honestly, this seems a bit too short… if you bump it up to 1/48 a Stormtrooper is 6′ 1 1/2 inches…. but I couldn’t find exact measurements on stormtrooper height IN armour.” Stormtroopers Star Wars: Legion Core Set, but as a corps unit, you can include up to six units of Stormtroopers in your army. Their low cost of 44 points for a single squad also makes them one of your go-to options for filling out your army’s rank and file.

Muster your units of Stormtroopers and prepare to march into battle! The power of the Galactic Empire will spread across the galaxy and the Imperial banner will fly above every planet. Look for the Stormtroopers Unit Expansion to release alongside the Star Wars: Legion Core Set and seven other expansions! This expansion for Star Wars: Legion contains four unpainted and finely sculpted soft plastic Stormtrooper miniatures different from those found in the Star Wars: Legion Core Set and the Stormtroopers Unit Expansion, inviting you to enhance your existing Stormtrooper units or to form a corps unit of their own. Alongside these new miniatures, you’ll also find new heavy weapon and personnel upgrade options to outfit your Stormtroopers for any situation. The reference to Star Wars Legion being 35mm scale is not due to the height of the miniatures. The miniatures themselves are actually 40mm.A ubiquitous sight across the galaxy, white-armored stormtroopers strike fear into the hearts of all those who would oppose the Empire. Though their uniform armor and rigid tactics emphasize the crushing weight of Imperial might, Stormtroopers can be surprisingly flexible units that serve a multitude of roles in Imperial strike forces. Though all Stormtrooper units begin using this same basic template, they have four available upgrade slots for you to customize each unit and make it unique: heavy weapon, personnel, grenades, and gear. Just like the Stormtroopers units included in the Core Set, the Stormtroopers Unit Expansion offers the same upgrades for your personnel and heavy weapon slots. By taking the Stormtrooper upgrade, you add another standard Stormtrooper miniature to the squad—giving your squad more firepower and making it harder for your opponent to completely destroy it. Trim the plastic. When plastic miniatures are molded there will occasionally be tiny slivers of plastic residue or a little extra plastic which builds up around the mold line. This extra plastic needs to be trimmed off because it distracts from the detail of the miniature. Some of us just have to learn the hard way. But those of us who have traveled the path before, learning by trial-and-error, will gladly share our experience if it will keep a fellow nerd from falling flat on his face. I’ve touched the hot stove so we won’t have to.
