About the game
What you do in a play session
If you've ever felt like your X-Wing battles were getting a bit too 'small,' it's time to clear out your hangar! The Rebel Transport Expansion Pack is here to crank up the stakes, bringing that epic evacuation drama we all love from the movies. Think of the chaos on Hoth, but this time, you're the one in command! This pack isn't just another ship; it introduces the GR-75, a sturdy medium transport that fundamentally shifts the scale of your combat.
What makes this expansion truly stand out is how it tweaks the core gameplay loop. Forget the standard maneuvers used by nimble fighters; the GR-75 requires a brand-new movement template that captures its massive presence on the table. On top of that, the new 'energy' system kicks in, allowing you to strategically manage shields and special abilities—adding a fantastic layer of depth specifically designed for Cinematic Play and Epic Play modes.
Inside the box, you'll find a stunning pre-painted GR-75 transport miniature, complete with an X-Wing escort to keep those Imperial scum at bay. The kit is fully loaded: seven ship cards, twenty-four upgrade cards, maneuver tokens, energy tokens, damage decks, and everything else needed to get your fleet airborne. It is the ultimate choice for players looking to evolve quick skirmishes into full-scale space battles, where energy management and precise maneuvering can mean the difference between mission success and total disaster. If you want to expand your base game with something that genuinely alters the tactical landscape, this transport is your next mission!
