Atomic Mass Games has previewed a couple of new 28mm scale Star Wars: Legion sets that you'll be able to scoop up for the revamped and updated game. Both the Rebels and the Empire get some fun miniatures to play with, starting with the Rebels and their Sleeper Cell.

Rebel Sleeper Cell // Star Wars: Legion

The Rebel Sleeper Cell set contains eight new miniatures representing a special forces unit for the Rebels that works behind enemy lines. As you might have guessed, they work using stealth to set up ambushes, sabotage Imperial supply lines and when called for, blow stuff up!

The set comes with a good mix of both human and alien Rebel members, armed with a solid selection of different weapons. I do like that they have added in a Loth-cat, harking back to the Rebels TV show, a nice nod indeed. You get the sense that they have just busted out of different shops and dwellings, ready to take down the Empire and stop whatever machinations are afoot.

As well as the Rebel Sleeper Cell, you also have some Empire forces who are going to put them down. The Imperial Riot Control Squad is getting ready to lay down the law.

This set comes with seven miniatures. You get enough for one Corps unit alongside all of the cards and upgrades you prefer. These folks aren't here to shut down just anyone. They are here to keep the peace and make sure everything runs as intended. Nothing nefarious going on here.

You get a bunch of Stormtroopers with E-11 blasters as well as others who are looking to get stuck in during close combat with their electro-batons and shields. These Stormtroopers are also backed up by a pair of Security Droids.

Both of these sets are available for you to pre-order now from Asmodee and should see a release in the middle of October.

Will you be siding with the Rebels or the Empire?
