Summary
The Legion is the Amarr Strategic Cruiser. The legion is very popular in incursions for its ability to do outstanding damage at well over 20km when fit with pulse lasers with scorch ammo. Like other Tech 3 Strategic Cruisers, it is also popular in wormholes because of its Battleship level tank and high damage in a cruiser sized package. Similar to other Amarr ships, it doesn't have the highest DPS, but its projection is higher than that of similar ships. For example, when compared to the Proteus, it does less damage, but it has nearly triple the optimal with short range ammo. Neuting Legion is also quite popular thanks to neuting subsystem and large Amarr cap.
Skills
To fly a Legion (or any other Tech 3 Cruiser for that matter), you will want a strong set of core skills (Power Grid Management 5, CPU Management 5, Weapon Upgrades 5, Gunnery 5, etc). Some of these skills are already included in the prerequisites, but there are some skills that are not technically required to fly it that are HIGHLY recommended before flying. Among these are :
- T2 Armor Tanking - Hull Upgrades 5, Armor Compensations at least to 3 (preferably 4) - ABSOLUTELY MANDATORY!
- Fitting Skills - Power Grid Management and CPU Management 5 are prerequisites. It is also recommended to have Weapon Upgrades to 5 (for Advanced Weapon Upgrades[AWU]), and AWU to at least 3 or 4
- Strategic Cruiser Skills - Amarr Strategic Cruiser at least 3 and Defensive Subsystem 5 are essential. For DPS Legions Offensive Subsystem 5 is recommended, neut Legions should have Electronics Subsystem 5.
- T2 Lasers - Medium Energy Turret 5, Medium Pulse Specialization 3 - This is not mandatory, but access to Scorch ammo could be very important to flying this ship effectively as a HAC style ship.
- Cap Skills - In addition to being useful for lasers, these are good for neuting Legions as well. Capacitor Management 4 and Capacitor System Operation 5 are recommended. If you plan to do neuting Legion, look at having Capacitor Emission Systems to 4 or 5, and finishing off Capacitor Management 5.
- Gunnery Support Skills - Try to have all applicable gunnery supports up to at least 4, especially Controlled Bursts (Cap is life!) Again these are not necessarily needed, but highly recommended.
- Other PvP Skills: Legion is bonused to reduce heat damage, and requires Power Grid Management 5. Thermodynamics up a few levels (at least 3) is a no brainer. Skills in the Navigation set such as Evasive Maneuvering, Acceleration Control, etc, are important for moving about the battlefield, and can help with tanking as well. In addition T2 warp disruption (including scrams) are a quick train and definitely worth the time if you haven't gotten them already
- If you want to do Missile Legion, you'll want good missile skills in addition to or instead of gunnery skills.

- Deadspace MWD is key to help with cap stability/sig radius (when compared with standard MWDs) while still offering a way to get in close to apply neuts.
- Neuts for 1890 every 12 seconds unheated (157 per second) and is cap stable.
- Heated neuts 1890 every 10.2 seconds (about 185 per second) not cap stable, but you shouldn't be overheating long anyway.
- 92,769/97,693 EHP.
- Resists (heated) 75.1/83.3(87.4)/81.3/90.
- 1539/2175 m/s.
- Your ample bay has plenty to hold 2-3 flights of ECM drones to keep a nasty off you to get a few more cycles off and still have room for combat drones.
- If no one is coming after you, you will range from about 120(Warrior IIs)-240(Hammer IIs) DPS for whoring on things besides your neut target.

- The whole point of this fit is to be cap stable, not cap injected, or ET'ed.
- While it doesn't neut as much as a 7-neut injected fit, it neuts a heck of a lot.
- This fit is useful for wormhole or small gang activities where an energy transfer may not be possible or desirable, and you don't have a crapload of cap booster lying around.
- Flavour drones to taste. In a small gang fight facing enemy logi use ECM drones, you'll be able to neut out 1 logi and try to jam another.
- In other situations where you need some DPS, launch a flight of light or medium combat drones.
- At around 600m, this fit is also incredibly affordable.

- This fit is VERY powergrid tight and may require a powergrid implant. At AWU 5 no implants should be required :)
- You can change the heat sinks and EANMs to Imperial Navy faction ones for more EHP and DPS at not much extra cost. (Relative, given that you are purchasing a T3 Cruiser).
- All 5s Approx 110k EHP 690/794 DPS Non-Shiny, with Navy Sinks and EANMS 118k EHP 730/839 DPS.
- In some situations, it might also work to put a Tracking Computer II instead of the cap booster and just manage your MWD use. This will give you a nice range boost on Scorch ammo.
- Already cap stable, but you can run a deadspace MWD for better cap and lower sig radius.
- You can have a friend who can also pilot the Legion but has better rigging skills drop in T2 rigs if needed.

- IMPORTANT: Only use Reactive Hardener if you have a booster pushing armor links! Otherwise use a navy EANM.
- Sacrifices damage advantage over Zealot to get more tank and EWAR capabilities
- Relatively cheap effective Legion fit
- More ammo types will not fit in the box, but be sure to bring some INMF and non-faction ammunition just in case you run out of ammo

- All-In-One Exploration Legion! This specific fit is designed to also help out in a possible PvP situation via cloaky scouting.
- This fit can be fiddled with quite a bit.
- You can drop a cap recharger for an analyzer if you would like, but you will lose a lot of sustainable tank.
- All V's tanks about 600 dps sustained omni and does 200-300 dps depending on ammo choice (stats listed with t2 rigs, even without the T2 rigs it should still tank a good chunk of listed stats).
- If you want more damage and don't mind T1 cloak, you could change to Liquid Crystal Magnifiers and then adjust your lows and lose a cap recharger in the mid. You may need to drop to a core probe launcher in this case though.

- Incursions unbuffed mininum resistances: 70%.
- With time, items should be improved into Faction.
- If resistance skills aren't all V, Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane II should be the first item switched into Faction.

Tactics
AHAC Legion:
- Your main advantage over other AHAC T3s is damage projection, use this to your advantage to start applying damage immediately onto distant targets the fleet needs to burn to.
- Try to stay somewhat at your optimal to make sure you don't have any tracking issues. For example if you are engaging a close by hostile, try to stay 7.5-10km away when possible to reduce the amount of tracking your guns need and ensure clean hits.
Neuting Legion:
- How you play this will depend on the situation and fit. Ideally, you want a guardian or carrier cap feeding you to free up midslots.
- Remember to use the least amount of neuts possible. Once your target is dry, assuming they have no cap feed or injection, turn off about half of your neuts and place them somewhere else. Once someone is empty, it's much easier to keep them down unless they have a cap booster or ET going to them. This will allow you to not only keep down your primary neut target, but also be a nuisance to others as well.
- Good neut targets are Logistics, boosting ships, HICs, caphungry DPS (Lasers, Blasters), EWAR when in range and tackle.
- If you are without a cap feed, you will have to watch your cap extra carefully. Try to limit MWD use where at all possible, and keep an eye on your capacitor level.
- Swap your drones depending on how things are going. Your FC will probably have orders regarding EC drones, otherwise DPS drones are useful for helping kill the damage primary. You may also want to swap to ECM or damage drones on someone harassing you depending on the situation.
- Remember that if needed, you can neut out many types of small tackle so you can get out
