This is a great 'dudes on a map' style wargame but it has a nice mixture of simplicity and nuance, thematically enhanced through the inclusion of a number of different asymmetrical objectives with the key plot point revolving around the Empire finding the hidden Rebel Base. There are rules that create thematic interactions between the characters and a number of different cards add variety and flavour to the gameplay, creating the feeling of an unfolding story which reflects the major plot points from the original Star Wars trilogy (ep.4-6). The rules for combat are a nice combination of detail and simplicity which reflect the dynamics of the battles from the films - for example, there are black dice and red dice which reflect attacks that are more likely to hit smaller/faster units or larger/tougher units. Then if you send a capable leader into the battle you will also have some tactics cards to improve the outcome of the battle. These little rules all add up to enhance the feeling that you are recreating battles from Star Wars. I suspected, based on its BoardGameGeek ranking, that it would be a good game but I have been pleasantly surprised by just how well it reflects the dynamics of the theme. If you like big thematic action games and you are a Star Wars lover I recommend this very highly. I am very pleased to have found a copy before it goes OOP. Read more

Superb game! It takes a while to grasp all the rules but once you get them they all make sense and then game flows much faster. The first two games took about 4 to 5 hours but the latest one took about 2.5 or 3. Really nice game for star wars fans! Read more

It's a heavy one to bring to the table, get setup and taught but oh boy, once you get it figured it's a treat. It combines hidden information, area control, resource management, card play, and star wars into a great story for the night! Where's the rebel base?!?!?! We must control the galaxy and crush them! How did they get over here? they were there?! oh my the story lines that get woven from getting luke out of carbonite and risking it all, to emperor trying to turn Admiral Ackbar to the dark side the little missions you carry out will be unique to your game and give you a story that you'll relive with your friend. It can play up to 4 people but really it's a 1:1 (though it can be fun to have side bar conversations and share the giddiness of almost getting caught out). The combat is a bit wonky sometimes but apparently the expansion corrects that. Read more
