Popular card game Top Trumps has released a new set based on the upcoming film
Star Wars: The Last Jedi, with some of the cards revealing information about some of the movie's new additions. Specifically, Resistance pilots - Paige, Nix, and Tallie.
The first card is for
Resistance Gunner Paige, sister of Resistance maintenance worker Rose (played by Kelly Marie Tran). While Paige (played by actress Veronica Ngo) likely won't be as pivotal to the plot as Rose, who will go off on an adventure with Finn to the Canto Bight casino in
The Last Jedi, she does figure into some of the expanded lore. Paige actually appears alongside Rose on the cover of the
Star Wars: The Last Jedi book
"Cobalt Squadron" and following the film's release, will star with her sister in the
Forces of Destiny comic series,
"Rose & Page." As for her card, it reveals:
Resistance gunner for Cobalt Squadron, Paige has the nerves of steel required to target point defense cannons and incoming enemy starfighters that harass her hefty bomber during crucial runs.
Also profiled is Resistance Bomber Nix, whose card reads:
Within the cramped innards of the Resistance Cobalt bomber, Nix attends the bomb release trigger ready to drop the vessel's explosive payload onto First Order targets.
Lastly, we have Resistance Pilot Tallie:
A skilled A-Wing pilot fighting for the Resistance, Tallie must escort bombers to keep enemy ships off them until they are in position to drop their explosive payloads.
While these characters are likely to play a major role in Elizabeth Wein's novel Star Wars: The Last Jedi Cobalt Squadron, it remains to be seen how much of an impact they will have in the actual movie.
Star Wars: The Last Jedi hits theaters December 15, while the Top Trumps card expansion is now
available for purchase.
