Star Wars Shatterpoint – Wisdom of the Council Squad Pack

As mentioned in the Outer Rims Terrain Battles Pack, we received several items from Asmodee from the Adepticon Roadmap for 2025. Among them were two Shatterpoint sets, Wisdom of the Council and Requesting Your Surrender. Today's review will cover the Council Squad Pack, which includes Jedi Masters and Padawan.

The SWP 50 Wisdom of the Council Squad Pack has an RRP of 49,99 USD and contains four miniatures for the game.

• Jedi Master Shaak Ti, Togruta
• Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi, Cerean
• Ithorian Padawan Learner
• and a female Padawan Learner who can be built either as a Human, Zabrak, Nautolan, or Rodian

This squad pack is set in the Clone Wars era of the game.

The miniatures are all inside a single sprue, as well as the four 40mm bases. And we get a lot of game material in five (!) different languages - English, French, German, Polish and Spanish. This will be streamlined in upcoming products.

• 4 Miniatures
• 4x 40mm Bases
• 3 Unit Cards
• 3 Stance Cards
• 3 Order Cards
• 1 Insert

As usual, there is a "Read This First" flyer providing links to the community, as well as the assembly instructions (search for SWP50), which are not part of the boxed set.

The pieces for the four Jedi fit inside a single, medium sized sprue. The Casting is crisp, with only minor mould lines requiring quick clean up. The bases are all the same size (40mm round) and have mixed designs. Unlike the Marcel Crisis Protocol sets, these do not have little scatter pieces for further decoration of the bases.

The Star Wars Shatterpoint gaming content (3 Unit, 3 Stand and 3 Order cards along with an insert) is localized and the cards are included multiple times in the different languages.

The first miniature we assemble is Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi. You can pick whichever base you like, but due to the rocks beneath his left leg, I opted for the one with regular ground. Removing the mould line from his braided hair took a bit of patience, as the part is quite small. However, the model was quickly built, and all parts are easily accessible for painting.

He appeared in all three of the sequels, as well as in further publications about the Clone Wars, and met his fate at the hands of the 21st Nova Corps on Mygeeto during Order 66.

The next model we build is Jedi Master Shaak Ti. Like Ahsoka Tano, she is a Togruta. This model has a wide stand and covers a lot of the base. The flexible plastic is ideal for the lightsabre, as stiffer material would be prone to breaking.

Shaak Ti was in the Jedi Temple when Order 66 was activated and was murdered by Darth Vader. Most of her storyline is covered in the extended content. She appears in Episode II as a hologram.

The Padawans in this boxed set are unnamed characters, and we have two of them. One is a male Ithorian Padawan.

The second is a female humanoid who can be built as a human, Zabrak, Nautolan or Rodian. I like the fact that there is some variation here, as the options are usually limited to a very small number of models across the range. I was hoping that the other models would have variants as well, but due to the specific traits of certain Star Wars races, I suppose it's tricky to make them variable. Nevertheless, nobody is forcing you to paint them in the way that is set out in the Star Wars canon. Be creative!

The squad of two Jedi Masters and two Padawans looks like this:

There is also a scale shot of a Star Wars: Shatterpoint model (second from the left) next to a Primaris Space Marine, C-3PO from Star Wars: Legion, and two Marvel Crisis Protocol characters (Yondu and Man-Thing).

There are a few shots from different angles to show you the details around the miniatures.

Conclusion

Dynamic poses that capture the various Jedi/lightsaber stances are ideal for this kit. As mentioned above, the rules are provided for these, but you are not limited to painting the named characters as they appear in the canon. Dig deep into the lore of the extended universe and comics for further inspiration. Make the hobby your own!

I like the idea of variations for the second Padawan. It's something I'd like to see more of, and I believe it will be included in the upcoming product roadmap.

Regarding the prices: They are reasonably priced — not cheap, but not expensive either. As Shatterpoint is a small-scale skirmish, you don't need many miniatures. Even if these prices are close to the product range of Warhammer, the total project cost will still be below that of an army. The product quality is also excellent, with proper casting and fitting. The details may not be as sharp, but that is less a production quality issue and more a product design consideration, as the Shatterpoint models are designed to be true to scale with fewer exaggerated features.

Star Wars Shatterpoint is a game by Atomic Mass Games and distributed by Asmodee.
