Game played: Risk: Star Wars Edition ( Hasbro ) BGG Id: 183880

Next up for my table was Risk: Star Wars Edition, which is not like Risk at all. In the four-player game, it is two teams of two, the Empire against the Rebel Alliance. This is a battle game based on the finale of the Return of the Jedi film, where the Rebel Alliance is trying to blow up the Death Star, but the game is fought on three fronts: the space battle, the battle for Endor where the Rebels are tring to dismantle the shield generator, and the fight between Luke and Darth Vader on the Death Star itself. Andrew and I were the Empire and were pretty merciless in blowing up X-Wings, Y-Wings and B-Wings. We even blew up the Milennium Falcon. Rose and John eventually defeated Vader and got to the Shield Generator but, by this time, they only had a handful of ships in space and couldn't break through the mass of Tie Fighters protecting the Death Star before their last ship fell. Victory for the Empire!
