Star Wars: Imperial Assault – Leia Organa Ally Pack is an expansion for Star Wars: Imperial Assault released in 2015 for 2–5 players, 90–120 minutes per game, and ages 12 and up. It was designed by Paul Winchester and its main mechanics are Dice Rolling, Grid Movement, and Role Playing.
From the publisher: As a member of the Galactic Senate and part of Alderaan’s ruling family, Leia Organa has been a powerful political force in the galaxy. Now, the Leia Organa Ally Pack invites you to bring this Rebel diplomat to the front lines of combat. This figure pack lets you experience Leia Organa’s political clout on any battlefield. A sculpted plastic figure brings the character to life and replaces the token found in the Return to Hoth expansion. With a new campaign side mission, two new skirmish missions, and new Command cards and Deployment cards for both games, the Leia Organa Ally Pack can turn the tide of any Imperial Assault battle in your favor. This is not a standalone product. A copy of the Imperial Assault Core Set is required to play. Includes missions that require the Return to Hoth expansion.
Star Wars: Imperial Assault – Leia Organa Ally Pack supports 2–5 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.

Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Star Wars: Imperial Assault – Leia Organa Ally Pack for ages 12 and up.
