Justification / Modifications:
One level of Terrifying Charge is enough for jungling, all that the 3 levels do is increase the duration from 4 to 7 seconds. The initial hit is irrelevant.

Starting Items:
Runes of the Blight, 2x Iron Buckler

Core:
(Helm of the Black Legion >>) Marchers >> Shamans Headdress >> Portal Key

Some like it, some hate it: Helm of the Black Legion is a controversial item not only on Legionnaire. I usually stack up 2-3 creep camps with 3 stacks each while farming the other camps. (The recent change to creep stacking being capped at 3 is a HUGE nerf for legio btw!!) When taking out tripple stacked camps use terrifying charge. Depending on your playstyle and your enemies get EITHER Hotbl OR Shamans Headdress and then get Portal Key. After that you can finish the other of the two tanking items if it makes sense. If you go headdress with no Hotbl you may consider getting Plated Greaves earlier as it helps a lot with jungling.

After core:
Plated Greaves OR Post Haste >> Barbed Armor >> Behemoth's Heart

Especially if you didn't build Hotbl you should have the money for Post Haste. But Plated Greaves are very good too.
Barbed Armor is kinda situational but in the majority of the games it is a very solid choice after you got your tanking core and blink. Heart is obvious.

Alternative Items:
- Fostfield Plate: Solves Mana Problems and is pretty good if used in a bulk of enemies. Not to mention it boosts your armor through the roof. So get if if facing a lot of physical damage.

Information:
Roles: Carry, Initiator
Properties: Tank
Prefered Lane: Jungle. He can lane now but Jungle is still prefered.
Difficulty: 3 - Medium
Farming capabilities: 5 - Excellent (Among the best)
Item dependancy: 3 - Medium (needs core)
Power:
- Early Game / Lane Control: Jungle, decent lane ganker
- Mid Game / Ganks: 2 - Weak (Gets stronger after core)
- Late Game / Team Fights: 4 - Strong (Good Initiator and Tank even if poorly farmed)

30-Seconds-Guide:
- If you want to jungle successfully with Legionnaire you need to master the art of creep stacking. He kills 5 Creeps faster and with less health loss than 2 Creeps. There are good written and video guides for this. This Premium Guide for example.
- Once you farmed 1 tanking item and Portal Key stop jungling! From now on you need to initiate team fights and ganks.
- Use a courier to send you health potions while jungling. It is always more efficient than running back to the fountain to heal.
- Help your mid to maintian rune control and gank your lane at level 6 for a rather easy kill.

Counters:
- Legionnaire doesn't scale into lategame. Thats why his power will decrease drastically compared to other heroes (carries). This is his biggest weakness and the reason he is rarely seen these days.
- Spread out so Legio can't hit all of you with his taunt
