About the game
Star Wars: Rivals is an expandable card game in which the light and dark sides of the Force face off, with each player building a squadron from characters throughout different eras of the Star Wars universe. Each Star Wars: Rivals – Series 1 – Character Booster Pack includes one character from the light side or dark side that can be added to the squadrons in the standalone Premier Set or that can be played on their own as a squadron against a squadron of the opposite side. Each pack consists of the character, its related character card, two location cards, a game die, five action cards, and 16 tokens and markers. Series 1 of the Booster Packs consists of nine "light side" characters, nine "dark side" characters, and eight "hologram" characters, four of each side.
