Frequently Asked Questions
What's the main new feature Jabba's Realm adds to Imperial Assault?
The big star here is an entirely new narrative campaign, set in Tatooine's underworld, where you face the desert's challenges and Jabba the Hutt's influence. Plus, it brings new skirmish missions and lots of components!
Do I need the Star Wars: Imperial Assault base game to play Jabba's Realm?
Yes, absolutely! Jabba's Realm is an expansion and, as such, requires the Star Wars: Imperial Assault base game to be played. It adds content but is not a standalone game.
How many players can participate and what's the average game duration?
Like the base game, Jabba's Realm supports 2 to 5 players. Game time can vary widely, but campaign missions usually last between 60 to 120 minutes, while skirmishes are quicker.
Which famous Star Wars characters are included in this expansion?
Get ready to see Jabba the Hutt himself, the fearsome Rancor, and even Luke Skywalker in his Jedi Knight form! The expansion also brings other heroes and villains to expand your options.
Is the Jabba's Realm expansion too complex for beginners?
It maintains the complexity of the base game, which is considered medium weight. If you've already mastered Imperial Assault, the expansion integrates naturally. For newcomers, it's best to start with the base game to get a feel for the rules.
Are the components good quality? What comes in the box?
Yes, Fantasy Flight Games is known for quality! You'll find 16 new plastic miniatures (for Imperials, Rebels, and Mercenaries), 18 double-sided map tiles that form iconic locations, and a ton of new cards (Command, Deployment, Agenda, Class) to customize your experience.
