A Fine Addition to my Collection

Average rating of 5 out of 5 stars

This expansion adds a new way to play the base game. I originally bought this expansion about 6 years ago, but I recently bought a new copy from Miniature Market to keep it in better condition while I play it. It adds units, cards, and leaders, and optionally changes the game's starting units and combat. If you are going to buy Rebellion, there is absolutely no reason to buy this to go along with it. Personally, if I play as the Empire, I prefer the original game's cards, but if I play as the Rebellion, I prefer the expansion's cards. Regardless of the team, I prefer the new unit setup that the expansion provides.

Makes Star Wars in box even better

Average rating of 4 out of 5 stars

It adds even more depth with units and much better combat with the cinematic battles. All tactics cards are in your hand at the start and discarded when used, which makes for meaningful choices as you don't get discards back until you go through your entire deck.
