Which side will win: the Galactic Empire or the Rebel Alliance?

The Mission

In this suspenseful game, there are 3 battles going on simultaneously: the attack on the Death Star, the shield assault, and the battle between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader. Opponents choose to either be a Rebel Alliance or Galactic Empire player. The mission of the Rebel player is to destroy the Death Star, but first they must destroy the shield generator protecting it on Endor. The Rebel player must be careful that the Emperor and Darth Vader don’t destroy Luke, though, as that will tilt the game to the dark side.

The Empire player's mission is to defeat all Rebel ships before they destroy the Death Star. The Empire player must stop the Rebels from destroying the shield generator, and make sure Luke doesn’t destroy Darth Vader... or worse, redeem him and strengthen the Rebels’ assault.

Defend or Destroy the Death Star

This gripping Risk: Star Wars Edition game is played in rounds. Players can enjoy strategizing and taking turns giving their orders. The space battle is key to the game, determining who wins.

In order to attack the Death Star, the Rebels must first lower the shield protecting it by destroying the shield generator on planet Endor.
