Fantasy Flight Games: A Step Above Scum

Fantasy Flight Games bring us a preview of Jabba’s Realm, the latest expansion for Star Wars: Imperial Assault.

From the website:

“This bounty hunter is my kind of scum: fearless and inventive.”

–Jabba the Hutt, Star Wars: Return of the Jedi

The backwater planet of Tatooine has long been known as a haven for criminals and scum of all kinds. Unsympathetic to the Rebel Alliance and too unimportant to draw the attention of the Empire, this desert planet has fallen under the rule of crime lords, and no crime lord has more influence on Tatooine than Jabba the Hutt. When a small band of Rebel refugees is forced to crash-land on Tatooine, Jabba the Hutt is already scheming for how they can be manipulated to advance his empire.

In Jabba’s Realm, the newest upcoming expansion for Imperial Assault, you’ll have the chance to return to Tatooine once more and experience what it truly means to cut a deal with Jabba the Hutt. This expansion is packed with new terrain tiles, sixteen plastic figures, an entirely new full-length campaign, and new skirmish missions, including rules for running massive, four-player skirmish games! Today, we’ll take our first look inside this expansion by exploring the new heroes that fight for the Rebel Alliance.
