Fantasy Flight Games brings us the latest expansion to Star Wars: The Card Game, Balance of the Force.
From the website:
Balance of the Force, the second deluxe expansion for Star Wars™: The Card Game, will soon lend the game an all-new dimension with rules for multiplayer games! The expansion offers two separate options for multiplayer games, each of which brings its own unique challenges to gameplay.
The first multiplayer option pits two teams of two players each against each other, allowing you to join a friend and battle against a two-player team representing the opposing side of the Force. New team play rules allow you to share resources, support your teammate’s assaults, bolster his defense, and make use of the existing card pool in surprising new ways.
The second multiplayer option offered by Balance of the Force is its two challenge decks, one for each side of the Force. These unique, story-driven decks create scenarios in which one player must face a team of two or three other players. This format introduces opportunities and challenges for both new players and those who are more experienced. No matter your experience level, playing with the challenge decks allows you to experience Star Wars: The Card Game in new ways as these challenge decks open a host of gameplay options and give you the opportunity to tell a new and exciting story. How can a single player pose a real threat to multiple opponents? Today we address that question by taking a look at the dark side challenge deck, Jerjerrod’s Task. In our next preview, we’ll examine the light side challenge deck, The Hunt for Skywalker.
