Star Wars Legion: Chewbacca Operative

Han Solo’s ever-faithful companion, Chewbacca isn’t afraid to follow his friends into battle. Once there, it isn’t hard to see how he can aid Rebel commanders as they attempt to capture crucial objectives or secure a foothold on the battlefield. His immense strength and personal connection to Solo, Luke Skywalker, and Leia Organa make him a natural choice to join these iconic heroes on the battlefield as an operative.

Inside the Chewbacca Operative Expansion, you’ll find everything you need to add Chewbacca to your Rebel army. A single unpainted, easily assembled miniature depicts Chewbacca roaring into battle, his trusty bowcaster at the ready. Three upgrade cards provide more tools for preparing Chewbacca and your other units for battle, and three command cards can add more variety to your hand, allowing Chewbacca to team up with the three Rebel commanders.

The Rebel Alliance is made up of diverse beings from across the galaxy. Each of these has something to contribute to the Alliance’s mission, but few can match the raw strength of a Wookiee.  

With the Chewbacca Operative Expansion, Rebel generals have new options for building their armies. In Star Wars: Legion, every army can pair up to two operatives with the one or two commanders that they’ve chosen to lead their foot soldiers and vehicles into combat, and Chewbacca makes a welcome addition to any army.

Towering over most of his foes, Chewbacca can easily overpower any enemy units that stand in his way, making him one of the most powerful melee characters in the game. When it comes time to fight, though, Chewie would just as soon use his bowcaster. This powerful weapon packs quite a punch, both cutting through enemy blocks and blasting through their armour.

Despite the raw power that he brings to every battle, Chewbacca’s greatest strength might be the relationships he has built with the commanders he’ll join on the battlefield. He was flying with Han Solo long before they joined the Rebellion, so it’s only natural that the pair should be fighting in sync in the heat of battle. Both heroes are formidable combatants on their own, and Chewie’s Teamwork ability further encourages him to work side-by-side with Han. This ability simply allows Chewbacca and Han Solo to gain an aim or dodge token whenever the other unit gains a token of the same type!
