Asmodee Star Wars: Legion Rebel Sleeper Cell Unit Expansion — Strike from The Shadows

Expand Your Rebel Force with Sleeper Cell Stealth

Introduce eight finely sculpted Rebel Sleeper Cell troopers to Star Wars: Legion, forming a compact Special Forces unit designed for stealthy, surgical strikes. This expansion brings not only new miniatures, but also fresh unit and upgrade cards, enabling you to tailor ambush tactics and surprise moments on the battlefield.

The Sleeper Cell force is built around covert movement, precise demolitions, and sabotage that can catch the Empire off guard. The visuals on the models emphasize agility and readiness, inviting you to craft a narrative of quiet advance and decisive, well-timed impact. While the rules provide clear options, the real strength lies in how you weave stealth into your plan, adapt to mission objectives, and react to changing table dynamics.

What’s Included

• Eight Sleeper Cell trooper miniatures to form a dedicated Special Forces unit
• New unit cards to define their role within your Rebel army
• New upgrade cards to broaden tactical choices and customization

Strategic Use and Playstyles

• Stealth-driven approach: move unseen, strike where the Empire is least prepared
• Demolitions and sabotage: disrupt setups and pressure enemy defenses with precision
• Armored target pressure: exploit opportunities to bypass heavier units with calculated hits
• Expanded options: leverage new cards to adapt to mission goals and map layouts

Feel, Display, and Compatibility

The eight miniatures are crafted with attention to detail, delivering dynamic poses and realistic gear that translate well to hobby projects and painted displays. The expansion integrates smoothly with existing Rebel forces, offering fresh tactical angles without altering core rules. Intended for players aged 14+, it supports two-player sessions and typical playtimes around three hours, making it a versatile addition for weekend campaigns and themed skirmishes.

Whether you’re chasing cinematic storytelling or competitive tabletop balance, Sleeper Cell adds a layer of narrative immersion to your Star Wars: Legion battles. The combination of stealth, demolition options, and new upgrade paths helps you explore different tactical lines while keeping the focus on player-driven choice rather than guaranteed outcomes.
