This release re-balances the original Star Wars: Rebellion instead of Fantasy Flight Games having to release an FAQ. It was an already amazing and addictive board game, but this expansion broadens the fun factor and scope even more so.

This release re-balances the original Star Wars: Rebellion instead of Fantasy Flight Games having to release an FAQ. It was an already amazing and addictive board game, but this expansion broadens the fun factor and scope even more so.
What can I say- I loved Rebellion and the expansion is more of the same but a different feel. Worth every cent.
New leaders. New missions. New tactic cards that lead to more fully cinematic
combats… Rise of the Empire is an expansion for Star Wars: Rebellion inspired
largely by Rogue One. And just as the movie provided new insight into the
Galactic Civil War presented in the original Star Wars trilogy, Rise of the
Empire adds new depth and story to your Rebellion game experience.
You can send Jyn Erso and Cassian Andor to recover the Death Star plans. You can
confuse Imperials with false orders and assaults behind enemy lines. You can
command Director Krennic and his finest death troopers. And you can set traps
for the Rebel pilots and soldiers, luring them away from their base and into
massive battles with more fully cinematic combat and tactics. Even Jabba the
Hutt makes an appearance, offering his services to the Empire and feeding his
prisoners to the Sarlaac.
Altogether, Rise of the Empire introduces eight new leaders, thirty-six plastic miniatures, five target markers, two attachment rings, three new dice, and more than one-hundred new cards. You'll find U-wings, TIE Strikers, Nebulon-B frigates, and the Interdictor. You'll gain new ways of subverting your opponent's plans, and you'll discover a whole new chapter in your ongoing Galactic Civil War!
