Star Wars X-Wing: Assault on Imdaar Alpha

At a secret research facility on Imdaar Alpha, Imperial scientists are developing a deadly new starfighter that could avoid Rebel sensors and scanners, providing the Empire with the means to crush the Rebel Alliance forever…

Attention all X-Wing fans!  Assault on Imdaar Alpha is an exclusive pre-release tournament taking place 11 a.m., Saturday, May 31, at Comic Book University.  This is your chance to get your hands on preview copies of the game’s fourth wave of starfighters: the Z-95 Headhunter, TIE defender, E-wing, and TIE phantom!  This exclusive event will provide players their first opportunity to see some of the game’s most innovative new starships in action! Be among the first in the world to field these iconic starships.

Players bring 100-point squadrons and compete through a number of Swiss-style preliminary rounds. However, in the final round, everything changes! After the close of the preliminary rounds, the tournament’s two top players set aside their personal squads and command new squads that they build with the starfighters included in the event kit.

One player will construct an Imperial squad that fields both the TIE defender and TIE phantom. The other will construct a Rebel squad that utilizes the Z-95 Headhunter as well as the E-wing. Both players will complete their 100-point squadrons by adding starships and upgrades from their existing X-Wing collections. Then, each of the tournament’s top four participants get to claim one of the preview expansions!

Entry fee is $5.
