STAR WARS: The Deckbuilding Game | OFFICIAL How To Play

This new head-to-head game for two players brings the galaxy-spanning war between the Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance to your tabletop.

In this easy-to-learn game, you and your opponent each choose a side, playing as either the Empire or the Rebels, and as the game progresses you both strengthen the power of your starting decks and work to destroy each other’s bases. The first player to destroy three of their opponent’s bases wins the game!

I love this game. I play it with my father in the evenings. Thanks for this video because I skipped the rule that capital ships can give resources/attack every turn they are in play. We were using them as a one time use and left them to soak up damage. This makes them even more essential to grab early. I find the cast of unique characters to be quite lacking so I expect some expansions in the future for this great game!

I like the upside downy bits; good usability. Also like how you can attack the cards yet to be purchased.

God damn it, FFG. You sure know how to keep a man invested in your videos

I love the way this video is made. I wish every board game did this.

Cool game. It needs a Prequel and Mandalorian expansion.

Just cant wait for some yummy expansions with more interaction between cards and so on! Missing Yoda and Palpatine/Sidious. Hope it will be the first expansion. The time i read is some near the end of the "New Hope". So i quess we will not got Dooku or Grevious. But there is still a room for some great add-ons.

It's a more streamlined Legend of the Five Rings. Neat.

What happened to the old style Fantasy Flight Games videos? They were amazingly cinematic...

Looking forward to playing this tonight. And always a pleasure to see Becca Scott. Great and clear explanation.

How can you attack the other player's units, if they get discarded before the start of your turn anyway?

[Iceshad]

Just by looking at this video, I feel this needs an expansion.

[branboom]

Whyyy is the Rebel side of the force track red and the Empire side blue?? Literally broken

[awildsylveon]

I've spent the last 6 months hopelessly addicted to Magic and a year before that on Yugioh, I can't afford another card game!
