Key mechanics include: - *New leaders* Eight leaders like Jyn Erso, Cassian Andor, Director Krennic, and Jabba the Hutt for commanding forces and special actions. - *Expanded missions* Recover Death Star plans, issue false orders, launch assaults behind enemy lines, set traps to lure Rebels into battles. - *Cinematic combat* New tactic cards enabling fully cinematic combats with traps, death troopers, and massive battles. - *New components* Thirty-six plastic miniatures (U-wings, TIE Strikers, Nebulon-B frigates, Interdictor), five target markers, two attachment rings, three new dice, over 100 new cards. Rise of the Empire expands Star Wars: Rebellion by introducing depth inspired by Rogue One, allowing players to deploy Jyn Erso and Cassian Andor for Death Star plans recovery, confuse foes with false orders and rear assaults as Rebels, or command Director Krennic's death troopers, set traps for Rebel pilots, and enlist Jabba the Hutt's services as Imperials. It features eight new leaders, thirty-six plastic miniatures, five target markers, two attachment rings, three new dice, and over 100 cards including U-wings, TIE Strikers, Nebulon-B frigates, and the Interdictor, providing new subversions of opponent plans and a fresh chapter in the ongoing Galactic Civil War through more cinematic combats and tactics. ---
