Fantasy Flight Games previews the TIE Reaper Expansion Pack for X-Wing Second Edition, with a painted TIE reaper miniature, second edition versions of the ship cards and tokens, and a complement of ten upgrade cards.
“We need a statement, not a manifesto.”
–Grand Moff Tarkin, Rogue One: A Star Wars StoryAs we saw in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, stealing the Death Star plans was no easy task. One of the biggest challenges the Rogue One team faced on Scarif were the waves of Death Troopers ferried into the heat of battle by the imposing TIE reaper. These menacing fighters pose a multipurpose threat to Rebel forces… and the TIE Reaper Expansion Pack gives you everything you need to add one to your games of X-Wing™.
In addition to adding a new starfighter to the Imperial ranks, the TIE Reaper Expansion Pack will help usher in X-Wing Second Edition by including components that are compatible with both the first and second editions. The beautifully painted TIE reaper miniature included in this expansion will be accompanied by second edition versions of all the ship cards and tokens you need to incorporate one of these terrifying ships into your Imperial squadrons, as well as its own complement of ten upgrade cards.
These cards will give you an early glimpse of the refinements made in the new edition and, when X-Wing Second Edition is released on September 13th, 2018, they will join the upgrades already found in X-Wing Second Edition to give you an array of options for building your first squadron. We’ve already taken a look at the first edition content you’ll find in this expansion.
