Pathfinders Expansion Who’s Who

So you just picked up your Pathfinders expansion, and you’re excited to get Bistan and Pao painted as well as the rest of the Pathfinders. But who are the rest of the Pathfinders?

Believe it or not, FFG did model the other Pathfinders minis after named characters from the Star Wars universe.

The fourth guy, I’m calling Beardy for now, seems to be an amalgamation of several Pathfinders from Rogue One. I need to do some more research before I can know for sure.

Stay tuned. I’m going to be doing the Rebel Trooper Who’s Who next.

Impact X Blog: Rebel Pathfinders – Unit Analysis

Rebel Pathfinders are best known for the battle at the Imperial archives on Scariff. They the are the first in and last out, often putting their life on the line to enter a theatre of battle ahead of the main forces to prepare the battlefield for the rest of the army. In Star Wars: Legion the Rebel Pathfinders are the Rebels fourth elite unit option. Their training and equipment make them self-sufficient and versatile in many different roles – and as such see specialized use in the Rebel forces.
