Out on the fringes of the galaxy lies the Outer Rim. Most people think that it’s nothing but a hive of scum and villainy… and they’re right! But it’s your hive of scum and villainy, and you’re going to become the scummiest scum and most villainous villain that you can, all while operating out on the very edge of soceity. In Star Wars: Outer Rim, a new board game coming from Fantasy Flight, become a smuggler, bounty hunter, or other sort of cast-off from society and make your name in a galaxy that isn’t a fan of your very existence.
From the website:
Far from the shadows of Coruscant’s skyscrapers lies the dangerous Outer Rim. To many citizens, the galaxy’s edge represents a hive of scum and villainy that is better left ignored. But to the scoundrels of the galaxy, the Outer Rim represents opportunity. If you can survive the harsh conditions of the edge of space, you may just find yourself emerging from the grime of the underworld as one of the most famous scoundrels in the galaxy.
Fantasy Flight Games is proud to announce Star Wars™: Outer Rim, a game of bounty hunters, mercenaries, and smugglers for one to four players!
In Outer Rim, you take on the role of an underworld denizen, setting out to make your mark on the galaxy. You’ll travel the Outer Rim in your personal ship, hire legendary Star Wars characters to join your crew, and try to become the most famous (or infamous) outlaw in the galaxy!
But it won’t be easy. The warring factions of the galaxy roam the Outer Rim, hunting down the scum that have proven to be a thorn in their side, and other scoundrels looking to make their mark see you as the perfect target to bring down and bolster their own reputation. Do you have what it takes to survive in the Outer Rim and become a living legend?
