Age of Legions: The Animated Series

Age of Legions: The Animated Series is a CGI cartoon depicting the events of the Victron Wars in the years 5551-5555, designed to serve as prequels to Age of Legions: The Elemental Saga. The show consisted of 6 seasons, totalling 100 episodes. The storylines were often split off into arcs, which commonly consisted of 3-4 episodes.

After this show, Age of Legions: The Holy War was commissioned, taking place 50 years after the end of The Elemental Saga.

Premise
In the heights of the Victron War, General Deuce and his protégé Exia serve alongside the brave soldiers in the Vorpal Legions during this dramatic and brutal conflict. However, something lurks in the background of the Victron threat. Something far more dangerous. Something far darker...

Creation
Upon the announcement of Age of Legions: The Elemental Series, JTV executives wanted an animated television show to supplement the movies. Initially, a small scale show for children exploring a small corner of Known Space was pitched. However, due to a desire to make the most out of the budget and funding, John Ryder wanted a television show that could stand alone whilst being immensely important in its own right. This lead to him commissioning James Howel to create The Animated Series, which would be the events of Deuce and the Victron War set up in Rise of the Elementals. The show creators worked heavily with the filmmakers, in order to made the narrative of both properties feel as concise as possible.
