This article is about the subunit active on Pxls. For the greater organization of which Legion VOL "Apollo Gloria" is a part, see Legion on Pxls

Legion VOL "Apollo Gloria", often simply called Legion by the Pxls community, is a faction on Pxls.space and subgroup of the greater Legion, which creates art pieces inspired by Caesar's Legion from Fallout: New Vegas, the real-life Roman Empire, and videos of YouTuber Wycc220.

Legion is the largest and one of the strongest factions on Pxls, if not the strongest. It actively retaliates against those who grief it, even if the offense was conducted multiple canvases in the past.

Canvas 28

After third VK's Pixel Battle, Legion started to build into the last third of the canvas. Having found a place with great difficulty, Legion depicted a number of small drawings, including the Antler drawing ([Bogorog] or Godhorn in russian version) and Legion's forepost.

Canvas 29

On this canvas, the Legion had more impact. Molodoy painted a large art depicting the eagle of the Legion, Legate Lanius, Vulpes Inculta and "The Respected Man".

At the beginning of the canvas, there was a conflict with Cozy Vault faction over territory, which ended in Legion moving east. In addition to the main drawings, "Legion-chan" art was created, New Vegas billboard captured by the Legion, an aquifer, "Maniac with an axe", "Bar-Forepost", as well as a carved stone depicting the identification numbers of legions from VK Pixel Battle from which the volunteers making up The Legion faction came from. On this canvas, Legion has an altercation with Cozy Vault over territory shortly after canvas started. There has also been a mellow, but prolonged conflict with builders of Finland flag.

Canvas 42

On this canvas, the Legion with renewed vigor after VK PB2020 began to develop large projects again. The central idea this time was to display the officers of the Legion, as well as those who made the greatest contribution of all time to its development, for which the art received the name "Pillars of the Legion".

This canvas is typical for the Legion with constant updates due to the high employment of the Legate, who alone was engaged in the development of art. In general, the canvas went without conflict, apart from a small disagreement with Antde, which led to the creation of the seventh anti-legion. After the negotiations, the conflit was resolved, and the Seventh Anti-Legion collapsed.

Canvas 46

Legion dominated the bottom 25%–33% of this canvas with a sizeable artwork of Legate Lanius, sparking controversy about canvas "pre-claims" by large factions and raising complaints from small and medium factions which either had to donwsize their plans (like Touhou Fanclub) or outright skip the canvas altogether.

Organization structure

HQ

The Legion has a structure similar to that of the Roman Legion, but adjusted for a small number of people. Legion is ruled by the Legate (Legatus). He has veto power in all matters. His name Molodoy#8805 and he also author of artworks used by the faction.

Three persons, called Consules, also have the freedom to govern the Legion.

• Praefectus praetorio - Tyto alba#1100. Praefectus responsible for Discord server, diplomacy and internal affairs.
• Tribunus militum - Snegovich#4997. Tribunus responsible for military operations (military officer), diplomacy and internal affairs.
• Orator primus - uhbyr1#6372. Orator has less power, nevertheless, it is he who plays a key role in the drafting of various kinds of agreements.

In total, more than 12 people are engaged in various kinds of officer work in the Legion.

Retired officers - Miror#5048 (military officer), rederik_#5587 (diplomat)

Legion Diplomatic Corps

"Greetings, Legion’s Diplomatic Corps is speaking."

• Founder and leader - Tyto alba#1100
• Senior diplomat - uhbyr1#6372
• Diplomat - Snegovich#4997, Brushboss#2569
• Interpreter - Spectral_Force#0113

First appeared on the 35th canvas, the LDC was the structure necessary to resolve the diplomatic issues of the Legion and other factions. LDC's debut was the peaceful resolution of the war between Veil and Simian Sculptors, in which the Legion was involuntarily drawn into. In general, the LDC is responsible for all negotiations conducted by the Legion from Canvas 35.

The overly formal appeal of the LDC in the negotiations has become a meme.

Conflicts

• First War Against Legion: Decimated Prog and French artwork after defeating a conspiracy by multiple factions to attack Legion on Canvas 34. The leader of Frog Village avoided destruction by publicly apologizing to Legion.
• Anglerfish War: Supported then-ally Veil with large numbers of placers in their claim conflict with Simian Sculptors on Canvas 35. Legion's contribution cemented the war into a long-running stalemate until they eventually mediated peace terms.
• MTG-Legion War: Battled Missing Texture Gang with their lattice on Canvas 35; later formed a "DMZ" which was honored until the canvas reset.
• Operation Sugma: Supported YOIB with large numbers in its defense of the ahegao girl template, which was being covered by Pride Faction and the LOF following the ahegao girl's covering of a Pride Faction template. Later mediated peace terms.
• Starry Night War: Invaded encroaching Starry Night Lattice in YOIB territory with the YOIB background.
• Hui-Legion conflict: A multi-day, low-level war fought between Antde and Legion on Canvas 42 over overlapping claims. It was resolved peacefully and an elaborate relocating plan was agreed on.
• Legion Invasions of Canvas 43a
• Corner War: Tried to defend Corner Gang's claim over the bottom-left corner of Canvas 47 against a hostile takeover by 2ch. Although technically 2ch won the war, it became a moot point when 2ch was shortly later nuked for illegal activities outside Pxls, leaving the "War Zone" back in the hands of Corner.

• Plus, a few other non-notable invasions and destructions of small factions (destruction of Pxls UN, raiding of NCR poster on Canvas 34, replacement of Nutya template on Canvas 38).
