Star Wars Rebels

Angriff der Rebellen

Rebels versus Empire. Each player commands a GHOST space ship and confronts TIE fighters, star destroyers or even Darth Vader. Hexagonal tiles show Imperiale Gegner = imperial opponents, Verbündete = allies of the rebels and Unterstützung = support as well as three Kosmischer Nebel = cosmic nebulae. Sixteen of those hex tiles are laid out at the beginning, in four rows with four hexes each.

Each player begins on cone of the corner tiles. In your turn you “fly” from your position onto an adjacent tile and then turn over a tile that is adjacent to your new position. When the tile shows support or an ally you may take it, provided you do not yet have a support or ally tile. Tiles that you cannot take are turned back over again. When you revealed Kosmischer Nebel, you roll the die and either receive or lose power chips or nothing happens; the nebula is turned over again. When you reveal an opponent, you can leave him in place and take a power chip or fight the enemy with a comparison of strength from die roll and additional points, making use of power chips, allies or support. Your neighbor to your right rolls for the strength of the opponent. If you defeat an opponent you take the tile; gaps in the display are filled at the end of your turn. If you cannot fill such a gap, the game ends and you win with most victory points on your tiles with defeated opponents and allies. Power chips that you have left, decide a tie.

A simple game, harmonious, with nice components and even a little tactic from the choice of fighting or taking power chips – a well-made game on the topic, best for fans of Star Wars.
