As you play, you'll take turns choosing command cards to activate your units, deciding how to move and attack across the modular board. The game features a range of exciting mechanics, including area majority, dice rolling, and hand management, which all combine to create a thrilling experience. With seventeen scenarios to try, you'll have plenty of opportunities to test your skills and try out different tactics.

So gather your friends, grab your command cards, and get ready to join the battle on the ice planet of Hoth – the fate of the Rebel Alliance is in your hands.
