Join the community and come discuss games like Codenames, Wingspan, Brass, and all your other favorite games! Boardgamegeek had some pretty great mods like this classic eight-player version but at the time I was really into Fantasy Flight Games’ X-wing Miniatures game and started brainstorming ideas with a friend. On Endor, the Rebels must race to destroy the shield generator, while the Empire deploys Stormtrooper reinforcements to make this task more difficult. Reviews are great , and this looks like loads of fun for Star Wars fans and it should keep the kids happy for ages! So one of the main points of this blog is to not only talk about techniques to pimp your game and talk about what is going on in the industry but also show off my completed projects.

Rather, the closest inspiration for Risk: Star Wars Edition is probably The Queen’s Gambit, a classic (2000) original design Star Wars game set during The Phantom Menace. In the throne room, Luke tries to kill or redeem Vader, while the Emperor zaps Luke every now and then. Some of them are new games, some of them are re-skins of existing games, and some of them are pretty obviously terrible – but some of them are pretty good!

In space, the Rebel and Imperial fleets seek to destroy each other by moving and attacking with Starfighters, including the TIE-spamming Executor Super Star Destroyer (with Empire’s fully armed and operational battle station taking shots as well).

Risk: Star Wars Edition is a light and fast game (it actually plays in the advertised 45 minutes or less), with lots of dice-rolling. I picked up a copy and the new version is fun but I can’t help being partial to my version, of course.

This 2014 Loopin’ Chewie board game has all sealed components, but the box shows minor marks from storage.But if you can flip him out of the way with your paddle, he'll go after someone else's Stormtrooper!

This looks like a great fun game for kids, as kids have to stop Chewbacca in the Millenium Falcon from knocking out their Stormtroopers. Each card will give the player two or three options spread across these zones of conflict, and the players must manage their needs on the battlefield based on the cards they have drawn. I knew the X-wing mini would be too fragile and alternate minis wouldn’t be any better so my friend suggested using the Millennium Falcon. Loopin’ Chewie is a simple one… It runs on batteries and an arm swings around with Chewie in a Millennium Falcon.My daughter is familiar enough with Star Wars to where that theme is fine but not such a big fan that I'd choose it over Louie, necessarily. He spins around on the arm in the middle, and you have to flip him out of the way with your paddles so that he goes after someone else's Stormtroopers instead. Tabletop gaming has (thankfully) not been immune to this phenomenon, with a variety of specialty and mass market Star Wars games released in 2015, with more scheduled for 2016. I really enjoy simple dexterity games like this, they're fun and require some good reflexes and the process of "figuring out the game" is great for younger kids. Depending on how the spacecraft is hit, it will go a little bit over the troopers, fly way up to come down at some indeterminate point in the future, or (for maximum entertainment value) possibly do some flips in the process.
