Yet Another Hutt Victory

Greek Food and Star Wars Risk

With the Death Star on Dagobah, thwarting any rebelious activity in that sector, the Rebels and Stormtroopers reinforced heavily in the Wild Space.  In turn one, they fought to exhaustion with no change in control of that sector. 

Despite a weak setup, the Hutts were able to take advantage of the weakened opponents to snag a couple resource planets.  The "Money is Power" faction card held off one counter attack, but ultimately the assault on Elom let the Empire sweep the Mid Rim resource planets and, a turn later, capture the entire sector. 

Hutt gains on Sullust, Balmorra, and Duro helped garner plenty of faction cards.  With one straight, they reached 9 resource planets.  Even after being beaten back by combined assaults of starfighters and x-wings, a straight for 7 legions, a "Wretched Hive" card for 4 more, plus 3 normal reinforcments let them sweep back into the Mid Rim plus capturing Tatooine.
