Renegade Legion

Renegade Legion is a series of analog and digital science fiction games designed by Sam Lewis, produced by FASA, and published from 1989 to 1993. The line was then licensed to Nightshift games, a spin-off of the garage company Crunchy Frog Enterprises by Paul Arden Lidberg, which published one scenario book, a gaming aid, and three issues of a fanzine-quality periodical before reverting the license.

The Renegade Legion series is made up of five board games, a role-playing game, a war game, and two video games. The non-digital games, except for one board game, are compatible on all levels.

Set in the 69th Century, the series allowed gamers to play out the battles between the "Terran Overlord Government" (TOG), a corrupt galactic empire, and the "Commonwealth", an alliance of humans and aliens. The focus of the plot, like with many strategy games, is to present a long term conflict to enable as many individual situations and environments as possible. Most of Renegade Legion deals with large military battles to be played on hexagonal grid mapsheets in a turn-based rules system.
