Star Wars Legion: Pyke Syndicate Foot Soldiers

The Pykes do not fight for a cause. They fight because someone paid, and because the spice has to keep moving. This pack adds a mercenary Corps unit of six Pyke Syndicate Foot Soldiers plus a Pyke Syndicate Capo, hired muscle that can reinforce an allied army or stand as part of a Shadow Collective force.

The Capo is what makes this more interesting than a standard Corps box. He can lead a single unit or take command of an entire mercenary army, so depending on how far you want to take it this is either a supporting purchase or the seed of a whole new force. That is unusual value, and it is why Pykes tend to be a gateway into mercenary list building rather than a one-off curiosity.

Eight upgrade cards and three command cards give you plenty of room to shape them.

Where they lead:

• A full Shadow Collective list with Black Sun Enforcers and Leaders of the Shadow Collective
• Mercenary flavored forces using IG-Series Assassin Droids or Hondo Ohnaka & Weequay Pirates
• The Mercenary Card Pack to keep a hired collection on current cards

Seven plastic miniatures, two unit cards, three command cards, eight upgrade cards, ten assorted tokens and an insert sheet. The long coats and breath masks paint up beautifully in colors you would never put on a trooper army, which is half the appeal for hobbyists.
