Revelation burrows through the material world, devours creation's soil, digests the thoughtless void, and produces significance with God's grace. From emptiness comes meaning, essence from existence, soul from matter.

Is God through the wormhole? Did God grant us this boon, this new technology, a revelation from on high? These weapons are God's new prophecy, domain, and blessing. Let us use God's grace and prepare New Eden. We are God's soldiers, weapons, glory. Our people are God's army. Together, we are the legion.

-The Heresies of Hinketsu

Summary

The Legion is the Amarr Strategic Cruiser. Like other Tech 3 Strategic Cruisers, it is a highly flexible ship that can be reconfigured for a variety of roles. It can deal damage using lasers, missiles, or drones; it can mount an outsized armour tank for a cruiser-class hull; it can be configured to warp cloaked like a covert ops ship or a Force Recon, and it can be given bonuses for capacitor warfare like those of the Curse and Pilgrim.

Skills

As an expensive, advanced ship, the Legion demands excellent general support skills and fitting skills. Pilots should seriously consider training Amarr Strategic Cruiser and all of the relevant subsystem skills to at least IV before undocking the Legion. The subsystem skills are short trains, and getting them to V should be an early priority, and possibly something pilots should do before their first Legion. All Strategic Cruisers have hefty bonuses for overheating, and polishing overheating skills up will help with this.

Tactics

Fitting and tactical approaches to the Legion vary wildly depending on the subsystem mix. For damage-dealing, energy turret and missile fits are very viable; though the Assault Optimization subsystem bonuses drones, drones are not normally used as the Legion's primary weapon, and this bonus should be treated as icing on the cake.

Subsystems

Like other Strategic Cruisers, many of the stats of the Legion are determined by what subsystems are installed. The Legion requires one subsystem from each of the Core, Defensive, Offensive, and Propulsion subsystems. Each category has three options, offering different bonuses and stats to the Legion.

Notes

The Legion might just be named after the legions of Imperial Rome, but given the many-formed characteristics of the ship, CCP's staff might also have taken the name from the multitude of demons exorcised by Jesus in the story of the Gerasene demoniac, who say "My name is Legion: for we are many" (Mark 5:9). This is consistent with the religious theme of Amarr ships.
