Building Legions

I am sure I am missing something obvious, but as a synthetic, how do I build new legions? I see that the 2.2 bug is in play so I get some each time I conquer a planet which is great, but need to build up to take an 8 legion defended homeworld which means I either burn civilians or else I figure out the required tech to build legions, but  simple can't figure out which tech that is.

Thanks for the help.

I didn't play synthetic yet, but I get 10 legions for researching Planetary Invasion and 5 for each citizen I train as General. Apart from that there is the possibility to train legions with the Military Academy improvement, but that is very expensive. As far as I know there is no other possibility to gain legions (apart from the legion multiplication bug ;)).

Building legions is the same process as it is with meatbags. Build a military garrison building and proceed to build from said planet. Legions go into a global fund which you can use to fortify to protect planets or use to build invasion ships.
