Star Wars Legion – Rebel Alliance Starter Set
The second Starter Sets for Star Wars Legion Asmodee sent us is for the Rebel Alliance. We will be unboxing the set itself and provide in-depths reviews of the individual kits (those are linked below within the article).
The SWQ01 Rebel Alliance Starter Set has a RRP of 99,99 USD and contains 36 miniatures, providing you with a 600 points Recon-Level Army. The printed content of each Starter Set is multilingual and covers English, German, French and Spanish.
These new starter sets contain the new hard plastic miniatures, as well as everything else you need to start playing Star Wars Legion: tokens, cards, dice and rulers. The only thing not included is the rulebook, which is available as a free digital download.
Star Wars Legion – Galactic Empire Starter Set
Asmodee sent us two of the new Starter Sets for Star Wars Legion, one for the Galactic Empire and one for the Rebel Alliance. We will be unboxing of both and provide in-depths reviews of the individual kits.
These boxes contain the new hard plastic miniatures, as well as everything else you need to start playing Star Wars Legion: tokens, cards, dice and rulers. The only thing not included is the rulebook, which is available as a free digital download.
The SWQ02 Galactic Empire Starter Set has a RRP of 99,99 USD and contains 37 miniatures, providing you with a 600 points Recon-Level Army. The printed content of each Starter Set is multilingual and covers English, German, French and Spanish.
Star Wars Shatterpoint – Requesting Your Surrender Squad Pack
We're sticking with the Asmodee/Atomic Mass Games product range, but changing the setting to Star Wars. This is the second Shatterpoint squad pack we have covered on here, after Wisdom of the Council. The Requesting Your Surrender squad pack for the Galactic Republic includes Jedi Master Kit Fisto, his Padawan Nahdar Vebb, and three Clone Troopers, including Commander 'Fil' CC-3714.
The SWP37 Requesting your Surrender Squad Pack has an RRP of 59,99 USD and contains five miniatures for the game.
- Jedi Master Kit Fisto
- Padawan Nahadr Vebb
- Three Clone Troopers, including Commander "Fil" CC-3714
Similar to the ARF Troopers we covered for Star Wars: Legion, these figures are part of the Clone Wars timeframe. Asmodee/Atomic Mass Games' Star Wars games both cover two timeframes: they both take place in the Star Wars universe, but are divided roughly into the Clone Wars era (22 to 19 BBY — Before the Battle of Yavin) and the Galactic Civil War era (4 BBY to 5 ABY).
Star Wars Legion – ARF Troopers Unit Expansion
As part of the new releases from the AdeptiCon Roadmap, there are lots of new plastic kits, including the ARF Trooper Unit Expansion of the Galactic Republic for Star Wars: Legion.
The box contains eight miniatures: a Jedi Knight and seven ARF Troopers, one of whom is armed with an RPS-6 Launcher and the others with DC-15A blasters. The RRP is 55 USD.
ARF stands for Advanced Recon Force, and their squad is led by a Jedi Knight — a male Zabrak, similar to Agen Kolar or Eeth Koth.
The Star Wars games by Asmodee/Atomic Mass Games cover two time periods: both take place in the Star Wars universe, but are divided roughly into the Clone Wars era (22–19 BBY, or Before the Battle of Yavin) and the Galactic Civil War era (4–5 ABY, or After the Battle of Yavin).
It is not uncommon for tabletop wargames to be divided into different time periods; for example, World War II rule sets such as Flames of War and Bolt Action are also divided into early, (sometimes) mid and late war.
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 Legion, 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 Legion – 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 Legion 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 Legion, but still can be used with games down to 32mm heroic scale, but we will see into that further below.
