Theme is wonderful! The only issue I have is that the weight of choices can creat a chess-like endgame that can take hours to resolve. Some people might find that part of the brilliance, but I found it a little taxing. Still a wonderful game.

The only reason I am keeping this is because I am so heavily invested in it, and I doubt I could get rid of it. It’s a cool idea, but the app is kind of anticlimactic and grindy. Clunky gameplay. If I had played it with more than 2 people, it may be better. 6.7 to 6

Where X-Wing drops you into the cockpit of iconic Star Wars snubfighters and Armada puts you in command of entire fleets, Imperial Assault takes you right down to the adventures on the ground that are so central to Star Wars. Both sides are incredibly fun to play, with the ragtag band of heroes earning experience and accomplishing missions while the Imperial player deploys all the might of the Empire to stop them. The box is also two games in one, and the skirmish ruleset is nothing to sneeze at.
