Where X-Wing drops you into the cockpit of iconic Star Wars snubfighters and Armada puts you in command of entire fleets, Imperial Assault takes you right down to the adventures on the ground that are so central to Star Wars. Both sides are incredibly fun to play, with the ragtag band of heroes earning experience and accomplishing missions while the Imperial player deploys all the might of the Empire to stop them. The box is also two games in one, and the skirmish ruleset is nothing to sneeze at.

This game like so many others depends on your group you are playing with, but if you get the right group is loads of fun. It offers so many modes of play now. It has 1 vs 1 or 2 vs 2 skirmish it has solo play with the Pp, and has campaign mode. So much variety out of main box but when you throw in some expansions then it really gets wild - 19 heroes available for campaign play, 4 fullcampaigns and 2 mini campaigns. I am sure there will be more campaigns online before too long as well

Went in with fairly low expectations, and left wanting to play more immediately. What a fun game! The theme works surprisingly well, and what surprised me the most was the mix of exploration and interactivity (similar to Mansions of Madness) combined with combat. There is really a race element to the scenarios which force you to move quickly, which I personally like but others may not. The downsides are two-fold though; the first is that the app really makes this game move along, and that requires some electronic device to manage. Ideally a tablet or laptop. The second is the initial setup. It is not quite as bad as Gloomhaven, but it still requires quite a bit. If you are used to Gloomhaven, or any of CMON's "map-mini games" (i.e. Zombicide, Arcadia Quest) then this is comparable.
