I love Descent 2nd edition and this is the Star Wars version of the tactical miniature campaign game. This also has a 1x1 skirmish miniature game out of the box and a coop style of play with app. Great game - cant go wrong with either.

I Love this game, it is Star Wars in a box. My problem with it lies in my playing as the Imperials. My play group takes a significant amount of time to plan out each of their turns, this works well for them but it means a typical round is: Rebels take 10-20 minutes per player, imperial takes

Streamlined version of the tactical one vs many dungeon crawler "Descent 2nd Edition". Very good Star Wars theme integration. [b]Pros:[/b] + Artwork Detailed, clear format and iconography + Theme Covers plenty of characters and scenarios of the Star Wars movies. + Components Great, detailed minis + Streamlined, fun skirmish, combat system (dice-based) + Different characters with special abilities + Campaign with different scenarios / missions: go through and kill all does not work + Quests/side-missions are about the players + Different characters with special abilities that complement each other + Alternating turn sequence between Rebels and Imperium players [b]Neutrals:[/b] # Language dependent # Classic dice combat (dice for attack and defense) # Grid movement with line of sights # Decent, tactical decision-making but not very deep # Best with 2 or 5 players [b]Cons:[/b] - Expansions are a money sink - Campaign can become lop-sided (unbalanced) for one faction [b]Similar games:[/b] * Descent 2nd edition (not as streamlined, not so smooth gameplay between overlord and players) * Shadows of Brimstone (coop campaign game in Cthullu universe) * Space Cadets: Away Missions
