It may be old, but it is most certainly not garbage… The Millennium Falcon is about as iconic as your Star Wars ships get. It is also one of the two ships featured in the Heroes of the Resistance Expansion Pack for X-Wing.

Like all the other “aces” expansions for X-Wing, Heroes of the Resistance revisits one or more of the ships already in the game—two, in this case—and updates them with new miniatures, ship cards, and upgrades. The result is an expansion that feels deeply rooted within the game’s core, but that pushes its ships into fantastic new territory. Accordingly, with Heroes of the Resistance, we find new miniatures and options for the Millennium Falcon and T-70 X-wing that guarantee they will soon find their way into some of the most creative, most competitive, and best-looking squads soon to hit tables everywhere!

Today, we begin to explore these options with a look at the Millennium Falcon, its new ship cards, its new Title card, and several of the other upgrades from Heroes of the Resistance that help it make the jump from the classic trilogy era to the age of The Force Awakens.

Checkout the new cards!
