The STABcast podcast is an absolute delight for fans of Star Wars Legion. As a relatively new listener, I have quickly become hooked on the show. The hosts' passion for the game is evident in every episode, and their enthusiasm is contagious. Whether they are breaking down units or sharing post-game battle reports, they do so with a level of knowledge and excitement that makes each episode engaging from start to finish.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the in-depth analysis that the hosts provide. They take the time to thoroughly discuss and dissect different aspects of the game, providing valuable insights for both newer players and seasoned veterans. Their breakdowns of units are especially helpful in understanding their strengths and weaknesses, and how they can be effectively utilized on the battlefield.
Additionally, the camaraderie between the hosts shines through in every episode. Their banter and friendly interactions make for an enjoyable listening experience, as it feels like you are sitting around a table with friends discussing your favorite game. This sense of community is further emphasized by their commitment to growing the Legion community and promoting local events. It's refreshing to see a podcast not only talk about the game but actively contribute to its development.
While there aren't many negative aspects to mention, one thing that could be improved upon is occasionally going off-topic or rambling during discussions. While it's great to hear their thoughts on various subjects, it can sometimes detract from the main focus of the episode. However, this is a minor issue that does not significantly impact my overall enjoyment of the show.
In conclusion, The STABcast podcast is a must-listen for any fan of Star Wars Legion. The hosts' love for the game shines through in every episode, making it both informative and entertaining. Their dedication to growing the community and engaging with listeners further enhances the overall experience. I highly recommend giving this podcast a listen if you want to stay updated on all things Star Wars Legion. May the force be with you all!

Come listen to the STABcast's tales of time spent at the Las Vegas Open. True to STABcast form, Ryan rarely left the venue and Tim did everything but play Legion after Friday. Listen to the trials, tribulations, dissolution and reformation of Tim during his sojurn through Vegas's city streets, and listen to Ben's incredulous responses. It is a fun, jam-packed (with just enough peanut butter to not upset the balance) conversation this week, so as Will would say, strap us into your earholes and get ready for this week's episode of the STABcast.
Come join us for the fun as Ben, Tim, and Ryan discuss game play, predict LVO, and ask the question "Are we bad friends?" Ryan and Tim throw around outrageous takes and Ben plays the mental game of Legion. All the fun you could possibly have in this week's episode of the STABcast!
Join us in the (sometimes) holiday tradition of the STABcast movie commentary! This year Ben dragged us to the bottom of Disney+ for his formative childhood Star Wars film, "Caravan of Courage, an Ewok Adventure." Listen along with the movie as Will, Ryan, and Ben all struggle to make sense of it.
This week on the STABcast! Ryan and Will recount their latest Legion adventures, while Ben struggles to not feel like death in the midst of the flu. Most of Ben's coughs and sniffles have been edited out, but some have been left in for flavor! Enjoy!
This week on the STABcast! Ryan and Tim talk Legion games, while Will and Ben theory craft excuses lists. The later in the show, Tim makes proclamations against Australians, Ryan gets cancelled, and Will takes Ben on a journey into the desert.
This week on the STABcast! Will, Ryan, and Tim talk about their games of Legion! While Ben provides his usual excuses! Topics of discussion include: sandwiches, Dallas, breakfast burritos, Geography, and much much more!
This week on the STABcast! Will, Ryan, and Ben discuss Will's plans to run the new wookiee battleforce, answer listener feedback, and in honor of spooky season, each talk about their personal Legion boogeyman! Also Will talks some smack about Denver. Also no Tim, he was too busy eating at Huddle House.
Welcome cadets and commanders to Tim and Ryan talk about their games at Crucible 2023. Yes, somehow Ben managed to make it through the entire episode without a reference to the Arthur Miller play by the same name, but he couldn't let the episode description make it though. Editor's perogative. Come and listen to Ben feel the weight of his job keep him from Crucible! Hear Tim meet his pointy reckoning on the Legion tables! Understand the opponents that took Ryan from his sleep and put knowledge (of defeat) in his heart! Did Ben think of Taylor Swift as Abigail as she brings potential destruction to the Kansas City Chiefs? All this and more in this week's episode of the STABcast!
This week on the STABcast! In an episode without Will, our other three hosts do their best to read the news from ministravaganza, Ryan takes vengeance for not having any talking time last episode, Ben makes rude remarks about Geonosian biology, and Tim didn't do well enough for his other shows so he was forced to record with us again.
This week on the STABcast! Ben and Will take over the show with 4 battle reports each, they actually played Legion! Ryan plays moderator as we cover the recent Knoxville store championship and the great fun that was had there!
Welcome cadets and commanders to another episode of the STABcast. Ryan, Tim, and Ben reunite to talk about some games, talk about some lists, and just talk. Continuing this week's theme of Muppet Madness, we have way to much fun while trying to count the number of ATSTs is the appropriate number for a Tempest list. Come have another furry happy time.
This week on the STABcast! Tim talks a lot! About Gencon! Will has a battle report for the wrong game (again) and Ben mocks the British Premier League!
This week on the STABcast! Join us as we discuss lists, Brisket, Shatterpoint, Buc-ee's, Lord Farquad, personal philosophy, and even more!
We have a very healthy conversation about battle reports, dice pools, the sproinginess of plastic light sabers and much, much more! Join us for the fun, stay for the thoughtful debate, and luxuriate in the funky bass rhythm from Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Welcome back dear listeners! In this week's episode, Ben has made it to the tables and has not one, not two, but THREE games to talk about. It is a battle report heavy episode, but we played some games and have lots of experiences to share and praise and lament. Additionally, we take a look at the recent news, some slights from across the pond, and MUCH, much more. So come for the jokes about Ben's missing toes, but stay for the conversation about Star Wars Legion!
This week on the STABcast! The whole crew is back (Scoundrels didn't have space for Tim this week) as we discuss games played, Ewok cards, and the points update! Sadly the errata update released after recording, just to make sure the STABcast is never fully up to date! Slight content warning, Ben talks about a medical condition and surgery in this episode so if that bothers you skip to the 10 minute mark in the episode.
Ryan is back and joined by Chad and other Will, as the rest of the crew was standing in solidarity with the Writer's Guild. Chad and Will crossed the picket line. Tim, Ben, and Will Prime just shake their heads. We look at new Ewoks and talk RTGC! You can check out Chad's show with Wes at: https://nerdyoldmenpodcast.buzzsprout.com/
This week on a Bonus episode of the STABcast! We had nothing to talk about, so instead we resumed our STABcast commentary track for the 2003 Clone Wars animated mini series! Follow along as Ben watches for the first time, our commentary begins at 7:22 in the episode. We encourage you to listen along with the show from Disney+ and if needed go listen and watch along with our commentary track for part 1, which was released in June of last year. Normal STABcast shenanigans will resume May 17, which will hopefully include news from the May the 4th weekend!
This week on the STABcast! Will and Ryan face off in the final of the Knoxville Legion League! The gang reacts to Ashoka's command cards, and Ben reads listener mail! Tim of the 5th Trooper was too busy for us this week.
This week on the STABcast! Battle reports from Adepticon! A discussion of jellybeans and ear-holes! And Tim smacks his mic several times and I'm sorry I couldn't edit it out...... All this and so so much more!
