General Information

Currently in open beta on InstantAction, Fallen Empire: Legions is a fast paced, futuristic first-person and third-person shooter.  Legions is considered the spiritual successor to the Tribes series made by Dynamix.  Several people from Dynamix are now working for GarageGames, the developer working on Legions.  The game runs entirely in a browser and has the same party system that other InstantAction games have.  Also like all the other games on InstantAction, it is entirely free to play.

Gameplay

Legions differentiates itself from other FPS/TPS multiplayer games by capitalizing on fast-paced vertical maneuvering, referred to by the developers as "z-axis FPS." Each player has a gravity-defying device strapped to their backs which allow them to not only jet up, but also hover over the ground, allowing them to slide down hills to accumulate speed, known to players as "skiing." Players are encouraged to use movement and momentum to their advantage for the 2 types of gameplay:
 

CTF

In capture the flag, flag carriers—dubbed cappers—use what are called "routes," predetermined  take the enemy flag at extremely high speeds and specific angles which allow them to quickly return to their base. Defense is not required to be taken out, simply confused and outran.
 
Specific players of the opposing team—dubbed chasers—will leave the base in attempts to catch the capper, gun him down, and return the flag. A single defenseman, often a sentinel called "heavy on flag" or "HoF," will stay at the base to prevent enemy build-up.
 
The home-flag needs to be in the base in order to capture the enemy flag, which can lead to stalemate games if the cappers continuously out-run their opponents, a frowned-upon style of gameplay called "rabbiting."
 

Deathmatch

Including Free-For-All and Teams, efficient jetpack usage is necessary for proper dueling. Weapons such as rockets and grenades are often ground/splash-based, and so dodging can be achieved by clever maneuvering, potentially allowing you to outlive your opponent. Aim is considered an important after-thought.

Classes

There are 6 different classes in the game.  Each with a different combination of the four weapons: Chaingun, rocket launcher, grenade launcher, and laser rifle.
