Yet Another Star Wars Risk Stop-Motion Video

Can't get enough of a good thing.  We set up Kent's interval timer and off we go for another ridiculous evening of Star Wars Risk.  Here's the entire game compressed to a few seconds.



Mercifully, it was a short game, with the E-vile Empire taking the upper hand early on.  First, they captured the Wild Space and held it behind a wall of Hutts, starbases, and the Death Star on Sluis Van.  When the Death Star destroyed a huge Hutt garrison on Sullust, it looked to be all over for the rebellion.

A desperate effort to break into the region via the Ison Corridor was foiled by Hutt loyalists on Bespin.  With the Death Star on the march towards the Mid Rim, the Rebels unleashed a forelorn hope assault on the Wild Space from Mon Calamari.  Bpfassh fell easily, but the four legions at the starbase on Sluis Van could easily have stopped the assault in its tracks. 

Instead, the Rebels broke through with 3 rolls of the dice and marched on to Omwat merely to stop the hemorrhaging of the Wild Space reinforcements (2 per turn for the storm troopers).  The starbase at Omwat, with its single legion, was easily overrun.  To our surprise, the Emperor was lurking there.  Game:  Rebels, by accident.
