With the variety of side missions included in Imperial Assault, you'll never encounter the same campaign twice. Throughout the missions of the campaign, players gain experience, new skills, and upgraded weapons and armor. As the campaign progresses, the available missions can change based on the outcomes of past missions. Whether you hunt down the Rebel scum with Trandoshan mercenaries, or defend strategic strongpoints with the Royal Guard, the forces of the Empire pose a dire threat to the Rebel Alliance. The power of the entire Empire is at your fingertips as you outwit, entrap, and exterminate Rebels wherever you find them. Imperial Assault's campaign mode offers a narrative campaign with over thirty possible missions, constructed using some of the 59 double-sided interlocking map tiles which depict "a massive range of Star Wars environments, from the jungles of Yavin 4, to the dusty wastes of Tatooine, to the metallic corridors of an Imperial base." When playing a campaign, one player commands the limitless forces of the Galactic Empire, including stormtroopers, Imperial officers, AT-ST walkers, assorted mercenaries, and iconic villains such as IG-88 and Darth Vader. Imperial Assault casts you and your friends into the climatic events following the Death Star's destruction above Yavin 4. Their mission: to silence the signal at all costs. When an Imperial distress beacon begins to broadcast from an remote outpost on Yavin 4, a small team of elite Rebel operatives is dispatched. The Empire races to recover from their crushing defeat and the loss of their ultimate weapon as the Rebel Alliance works to solidify their advantage. Victory! By destroying the Death Star, the Rebellion has given hope to a galaxy living in fear. The game contains more than 34 detailed plastic miniature figures from 13 unique sculpts. Star Wars Imperial Assault is a Star Wars board game of cinematic adventure and tactical combat for two to five players.

Here is a closer look at the miniatures from Dice Tower, Board Game Geek and Drive Thru Review:
Both the forces of the Empire and the Rebel heroes gain new skills and items throughout the campaign, allowing characters to develop and grow as the story unfolds. One player commands the armed forces of the Galactic Empire, while up to four others play as heroes of the Rebellion, engaging in covert operations and missions.
The campaign game (which is what I'm most interested in) can accommodate up to five players. How cool does that dynamic board set-up look? Imperial Assault offers two different game modes: An epic expansive RPG-style adventure campaign, as well as competitive, customizable 2-player head-to-head experience.
