Yes, already in the run-up to the tournament some players remarked that the legendary units were not really well balanced. True, but they are also part of SAGA and make up part of the charm. That&#8217;s why we made a conscious decision to do it this year. Next year, however, we will definitely play without legends.<\/p>\n<p>The complete tournament guide with all rules and scenarios can be found at <a
