About the game

What you do in a play session

If you’re a Star‑Wars fan who loves high‑speed aerial battles, the "Heroes of the Resistance" pack is the upgrade that will take your X‑Wing to the next level. The set brings beloved film characters—Rey, Finn, Han Solo, and Poe Dameron—back into the cockpit, ready to roar in space. The Millennium Falcon gets a brand‑new look, with paint and details reminiscent of *The Force Awakens*, while Poe flies the iconic black T‑70 X‑wing, the Black One. In addition to the new ships, the pack adds three exclusive Resistance pilots, new pilot talents, tech upgrades, and even a title upgrade that can be applied to the Falcon and Black One, granting unique abilities that can swing the battle. You’ll find 18 upgrades, 10 ship cards, maneuvers, tokens, and action cards, all with the typical Fantasy Flight quality. The game keeps the same action‑queue and dice‑rolling mechanics but now offers more customization and pilot tactics. If your table already has the X‑Wing base, the pack adds variety of scenarios and characters to keep the experience fresh for a long time. If you don’t have the base yet, it’s worth checking out, as the pack works well as an introduction to the X‑Wing universe, bringing high‑level characters and approachable mechanics. In short, it’s an upgrade that blends nostalgia, new tactics, and high‑quality components, perfect for those who want to intensify battles in their favorite galaxy.
