Regrouping after the battle of Yavin, the Rebel Alliance established Echo Base on planet Hoth. Fortified and well armed, Echo Base was a defensible position that Hoth's heavy snowfall gave the converted Wampa den natural camouflage.

However, the Empire's Probe Droid located Echo Base. The Empire's attack was relentless and Echo Base would not hold. To keep the rebellion alive, the brave Echo Base defenders pushed back against the empire for as long as they could to insure as many Rebels could escape as possible.

This Echo Base Defenders Special Edition Starter Set contains a 600-point Recon-level army, including a Special Edition alternate sculpt General Leia Organa. It also includes all the dice, templates, tools, and tokens a player needs to begin playing their first games of Star WarsTM: Legion.
