Star Wars: The Card Game – Assault on Echo Base

About this expansion

Star Wars: The Card Game – Assault on Echo Base is a 2013 Force Pack for two players, with games taking about 60 minutes. Set during the battle of Hoth, it depicts the Rebel Alliance’s desperate defense of Echo Base against the advancing Imperial Blizzard Force.

As Imperial walkers and troopers move toward the frozen Rebel refuge, players face fast-paced combat, high-stakes subterfuge, and strategic deck customization. The pack adds 60 new cards through complete playsets of six new objective sets, numbered 53–58.

• New strategies centered on Walkers, Troopers, and Droids
• Effects that manipulate shield tokens
• Ways to remove damage from objectives
• Two objective sets with powerful effects that trigger while their objectives remain undamaged

These new cards encourage players to shape their attacks and defenses around the condition of their objectives. Protecting an undamaged objective can unlock powerful effects, while shield manipulation and damage removal offer additional ways to influence the battle.

Assault on Echo Base is the fourth Force Pack in The Hoth Cycle for Star Wars: The Card Game. It is designed to augment existing decks and is not a standalone game; the Star Wars: The Card Game Core Set is required to play.

Whether General Veers leads the Empire’s walkers to victory or the Rebels hold their shields long enough to buy time, this expansion brings the Hoth conflict to the table with new objective-focused possibilities. Star Wars: The Card Game – Assault on Echo Base offers a focused addition for players ready to expand their light side and dark side strategies.
