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:
You'll find U-wings, TIE Strikers, Nebulon-B frigates, and the Interdictor plus extra ground units. 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!
Makes the game even more enjoyable, would recommend

Star Wars: Rebellion is a fantastic game. Well put together, relatively simple to learn and thoroughly enjoyable to play. As a Star Wars fan, this ticked all the boxes.
If you like Rebellion then this expansion will make it even better.As well as the extra characters and extra missions / objectives to give you some more variety there is also an improved combat system.Now there are extra units with green dice, which either hit or miss - this mitigates the problem of rolling a bunch of black dice trying to do red damage! In addition you get to choose the combat cards from your deck, rather than drawing them randomly, which adds more tactics and less randomness to their affects. Also you only get to choose one per battle round rather than potentially drawing multiple cards.All in all it changes the game for the better and adds more variety and better combat.Definitely worth the money!
