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.
Star Wars Legion – Outer Rim Battles Terrain Pack
As part of the coverage on the Adepticon Road Map, we received a large package from Asmodee containing various boxed sets from their Star Wars Legions, Shatterpoint and Marvel Crisis Protocol tabletop wargames series. We want to review these sets, box by box, starting with the Outer Rim Battle Terrain Pack from Star Wars Legion.
With our upcoming Outer Rim campaign, we are excited to cover this terrain pack. This set has an RRP of 59,99 USD and contains ruins, rubble and walls, along with two mouse droids - a critter is usually included in each of these sets as an easter egg.
Having seen the product pictures/front of the box prior to this review, I was surprised by the amount shown on the back — more on that below.
Stargrave – Tales of the Outer Rim
A new project is incoming - the Tales of the Outer Rim (TOTOR), and I want to include you in the creative process. But let us set the tone.
It is a time of upheaval.
Nine years after the fall of the Emperor, new powers are struggling for influence in the galaxy. In the Outer Rim, old feuds are simmering, pirates and bounty hunters are making the fringes of civilisation unsafe. Amidst the chaos, small groups of smugglers, deserters and freedom fighters are gathering.
In search of artefacts, credits and a place in the new age, they face the dangers of a shattered galaxy.
With the rules from Stargrave and miniatures from Star Wars: Legion, these stories come to life.
Small skirmishes, great adventures — a new hope on the edge of the stars...
Star Wars Legions – Priority Supplies
This set has been around for a bit longer, I actually picked it up during my vacation in Spain (there fore the spanish and portuguese description / packaging). As I have a sweet-tooth for terrain, especially objectives and scatter, I picked these up at the local store in Santander (Distrito Zero), especially as I got a discount and paid around 20 EURs for them.
Priority Supplies is similar to Vital Assets a non-core addition to the game, and covers 12 items that can be used for markers, points-of-interest, mission objectives and so on, in detail they are 3 comms stations, 4 moisture vaporators, and 5 supply crates. As the set was released in 2018, it seems that it was discontinued by now, as it no longer listed by Atomic Mass Games or Asmodee - but there are several listings on independent stores, where you can pick it up between 20 to 30 EURs.
Star Wars Shatterpoint – Vent Building
We had a good time with the last kit we build from the Star Wars Shatterpoint terrain range, the Maintenance Bay Terrain Pack, and have an eye on the upcoming releases. And while I have the two other sets, High Ground and Take Cover, I was missing a single building, that is exclusive to the Starterset.
While that is a real good bargain, with two starter warbands and a lot of terrain, I want to use this terrain with my Legions miniatures and wasn't interested in the other items from that set, so I went on the second hand market and picked up the Vent Building on its own. The other terrain items from the Shatterpoint Starterset are the same as in the High Ground Terrain Pack.
We have a few sprues and as usual the assembly instruction can be downloaded from the Atomic Mass Games website, and I put them on my tablet.
Quick removal of the parts from the sprue. A bit of clean up where the parts connect to the frame, but beyond that very little mould lines to clean up.
Star Wars Shatterpoint – Maintenance Bay Terrain Pack
A fine addition to the Shatterpoint terrain series is the Maintenance Bay Terrain Pack, which was released in the second half of 2024 and we're looking into it today.
The large boxed set has a RRP of 84,99 USD / 85 EUR, but prices vary online. The Maintenance Bay covers an Outer Rim Garage and a womprat and is produced by Asmodee / Atomic Mass Games.
While it part of the Shatterpoint range (a 40mm scale skirmish) it is a bit taller than the platoon level 1:48 / 32-35mm scale of Star Wars Legions, but still can be used with games down to 32mm heroic scale, but we will see into that further below.
Star Wars Legion – Crashed Escape Pod
After the crashed X-Wing, we cover the next crashed terrain from the Star Wars Legion Battlefield Expansion SWL 43 - the Crashed Escape Pod.
And this is just not any battlefield expansion, but included R2-D2 and C-3PO as well, as it recreates their use of the escope pod to smuggle the Death Star plans off the Tantive IV, while crashing upon Tatooine in Star Wars Episode IV - A New Hope.
April 2024 review
Welcome to May 2024! A lot of things going on behind the scenes, as May is packed with tasks. Just last friday the 4th shipment of Warhammer Age of Sigmar Stormbringer arrived!
While we continue with the Stormcast Eternals warband for Warcry, a lot of the content might be interesting for reviews, just like we did with the Annihilators. With the items from the Stormbringer shipment 3 (Issue 08 to 13) and shipment 4 (Issue 14 to 19), we will very likely cover the following kits, including two Warhammer Underworld warbands:
Star Wars Legion – Crashed X-Wing
We are going to take a deep dive into Star Wars for a few weeks and we start with the SWL 100 - Crashed Ex-Wing Battlefield Expansion for Star Wars Legion.
Along with the regular units, Asmodee / Atomic Mass Games released supplements for the game that not just worked as terrain pieces, but covered rules like scenarios and additional gaming material to it. In this case the crashed X-Wing isn't alone, but comes with a female pilot, which doubles as a mission objective.
Star Wars Shatterpoint – Take Cover Terrain Pack
The second terrain set for Star Wars Shatterpoint after the High Ground set is the more compact Take Cover Terrain Pack.
To classifiy Shatterpoint within the Star Wars miniatures games, as a 40mm scale skirmish it is a bit taller than the platoon level 1:48 / 32-35mm scale of Star Wars Legions. And as such creates the need for a different kind of terrain, as you only have about 8 models per side on the table and not entire units as well as vehicles.
