The game is set during the Battle of Hoth, where you get to play as either the Rebel Alliance or the Galactic Empire.

The miniatures are incredibly detailed, and the game mechanics are easy to pick up. You'll be rolling dice, issuing orders, and playing cards to gain the upper hand.

This game is perfect for anyone who loves strategy games, miniatures, and, of course, Star Wars. It's also a great game for those who are new to the world of miniatures and looking for an entry point. The average playtime of three hours might seem long, but trust me, the time will fly by.

Now it's time for the pro con list:

Pros:
- High-quality miniatures that are incredibly detailed.
- Easy to pick up gameplay mechanics.
- A great entry point for those new to miniatures games.

Cons:
- The game can be a bit pricey for some.
- The color scheme of the miniatures is a bit bland.

In conclusion, the Star Wars Legion Echo Base Defenders Expansion is a fun and engaging game that's perfect for anyone who loves strategy games, miniatures, and Star Wars. It's easy to pick up, but it'll still take some time to master. The miniatures are incredibly detailed, and the game mechanics are intuitive. The game might be a bit pricey for some, but it's definitely worth the investment. Overall, I would give this game a solid 9/10.
