Fantasy Flight Games preview Padmé Amidala Operative Expansion for Star Wars: Legion.
The Clone Wars have put an unprecedented strain on the Galactic Republic, threatening to bring an end to this democracy that has stood for a thousand years. In this time of crisis, strong leaders are needed to protect everything that the Republic stands for. In some cases, these leaders may even have to put themselves in harm’s way and make the ultimate sacrifice in the name of the Republic.
Despite the rampant corruption surrounding her, Senator Padmé Amidala is committed to the ideals of democracy. Embarking on countless diplomatic missions across the galaxy, Amidala is ready to use both her political and martial skills to rally planets to the Republic’s cause. Soon, she will be ready to undertake missions as part of your armies with the Padmé Amidala Operative Expansion for Star Wars™: Legion!
Within this expansion, you’ll find a beautifully sculpted, unpainted hard plastic Padmé Amidala miniature to add to your collection. As you assemble this miniature, you’ll be able to customize its look, choosing between two distinct weapons and whether or not Padmé Amidala appears with a cape. Beyond how she appears in combat, six upgrade cards invite you to further enhance Padmé Amidala’s skills and her three signature command cards let you adjust your tactics to fit the circumstances of the mission.
Uniting the Galaxy
Leadership takes many forms. In times of war, some leaders navigate labyrinthine bureaucracies to support the troops fighting on the front lines. Others lead these troops in battle, seizing victory with decisive tactical decisions. A rare few like Padmé Amidala blur the line between both worlds as they fight for their beliefs.
No stranger to conflict, Padmé Amidala’s entrance into politics at a young age has helped her hone skills just as useful on the battlefield as they are on the floor of the Galactic Senate. Chiefly, she exhibits an extraordinary amount of courage on the battlefield and—despite not assuming direct command of Republic troops—her leadership skills still shine through, helping organize and improve friendly forces.
