About this game
Recreate the iconic Empire Strikes Back battle with AT-ATs stomping across ice fields while Rebel speeders and infantry desperately defend Echo Base. Using the proven Command and Colors system, players play command cards to activate units in different sectors of the hex battlefield. The asymmetry captures the desperate Rebel defense perfectly: the Empire has overwhelming force, but the Rebels have terrain, heroes, and the need to buy time for evacuation.
