Board Game Star Wars - Rebellion. Rise of the Empire

Endless star wars tear the galaxy apart. Giant star destroyers surrounded by TIE fighters are whirling through countless systems, destroying the pitiful rebel resistance forces. The Sith Lord, Darth Vader, is eager to find and destroy the galaxy`s last bastion of hope - the secret rebel base. And although the forces are unequal, a handful of adventurers are looking for a way to stop the Death Star - a huge orbital station capable of destroying planets with one shot.

This is an addition to one of the most beautiful board strategy games called "Star Wars - Rebellion". In this expansion, you will meet familiar heroes from the spin-off of the famous saga «Star Wars - Rogue One».

In the expansion box, you will find eight new leaders, 36 miniatures of new troops, new mission cards, as well as new tactical cards for space and ground battles. By the way, it is the tactical battle cards that replace the basic ones, offering more thoughtful and improved battle mechanics. Instead of drawing the number of cards that corresponds to the leader`s tactics level, the player now looks through the deck and chooses any card. Then the players simultaneously reveal their cards and apply their game effects, and the leader`s tactics level now allows you to roll dice. This innovation has reduced the share of randomness in favor of strategy.

New, green dice are also intended for new troops, and a new shooting mode has been introduced for the Death Star. Now you can attack a planet with a low-power beam that will destroy all ground units, but the planet itself will remain intact.

The game also has objective markers that bring positive bonuses to their owners, and to get rid of this marker, the opponent will have to capture or destroy the planet on which it is located.

Overall, this is a great addition that slightly modifies the base game, and makes it even more balanced and multifaceted. A great gift for all Star Wars fans!
