Description
In the heat of battle, it's easy to overlook the smaller ships, but in Star Wars: Armada, squadrons of starfighters can be the game-changers that turn the tide of war. The Rebel Fighter Squadrons Expansion Pack brings eight new squadrons to the table, including A-wings, B-wings, X-wings, and Y-wings, each with its own unique abilities and strengths. These small but mighty ships may be dwarfed by the capital ships, but they can swarm and overwhelm even the largest of vessels, making them a vital part of any fleet. As a 2-player expansion, the Rebel Fighter Squadrons pack is designed to be learned quickly, even by those familiar with the base game, and can be played in about 120 minutes. The rules are fairly straightforward, so you can jump right into the action and start making tactical decisions about how to deploy your squadrons. With famous aces like Wedge Antilles and Tycho Celchu leading the charge, you'll have the chance to relive some of the most pivotal battles of the Galactic Civil War. The variable phase order and action queue mechanics add a layer of complexity and strategy to the game, making each battle unique and challenging. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, the Rebel Fighter Squadrons Expansion Pack is a great way to add some excitement and depth to your Star Wars: Armada experience. With its easy-to-learn rules and quick playtime, you can start exploring the possibilities of squadron-based combat right away. The pack is designed to work with the base game, as well as other expansions like the Galactic Republic Fleet Starter and Separatist Alliance Fleet Starter, so you can mix and match to create the perfect fleet for your playing style.
