Players then gather their faction sheet, leaders, miniatures, loyalty markers, mission cards, and action cards. With two game boards needed side-by-side, the galaxy sure fills the table. Rather than cover every element of the game play, I’ll share enough to give you a good taste of the flow of the game before diving into what I love about the game. The Imperial player must find and conquer the Rebel base and the Rebel player must achieve a number of objectives before it’s too late. Players take the sides of either the Galactic Empire or the Rebel Alliance – each with their unique abilities and options to play and each with their own way to win. Star Wars Rebellion is a full course meal of a game that takes a solid couple hours to play. It’s not a light game you’re going to pull out to play before bed. Unlike many of the other games we’ve reviewed, Star Wars Rebellion isn’t a quick game to learn and play. If you’re looking for a board game that immerses you into the Star Wars universe, this is it!Īnd it’s a perfect board game to play on #StarWarsDay! Star Wars Rebellion is a wonderful foray into the epic battle between the Rebel Alliance and the Galactic Empire. It turns out that my first play of Star Wars Rebellion lived up to my hopes and became one of my Top 11 Game Experiences of 2016.Īnd thanks to Miniature Market, we now have our own copy and I’m lovin’ it! So all I left with was a photo of the stack of Star Wars Rebellion games in the store and hopes of playing it soon in the future. However, by an unlucky turn of events, my flight was delayed 3 hours due to weather and I didn’t get to the FFG Game Center until after the event was over. Sad I missed the Star Wars Rebellion release event and designer signing. I didn’t know it when I planned my trip, but was excited to find the event listed on the FFG website: “Rebellion designers Corey Konieczka and Steve Kimball will be in the store to chat, answer questions, and sign copies of your Star Wars Rebellion game”. It was released last year by Fantasy Flight Games and once again, the completely knocked it out of the park!īy a completely lucky coincidence, I was traveling to Minneapolis on business last April when a launch event was happening at the FFG Game Center. Every once in a while a game comes along that totally captures my attention.
