Disney Star Wars - Loopin Chewie Family Board Game - Loopin Louie

Product Information

In space, the Rebel and Imperial fleets seek to destroy each other by moving and attacking with Starfighters, including the TIE-spamming Executor Super Star Destroyer (with Empire’s fully armed and operational battle station taking shots as well).

To get the feel of this new version, I took the entire original Loopin’ Louie apart and spray painted everything black except the paddles which I painted TIE Fighter grey. Failing to keep Chewie at bay will result in a stormtrooper being knocked down, and the last player with a trooper left wins.

We do not believe in updates for the sake of updates - and we will never share your details with a 3rd party.

Indeed, while a name like “Risk Star Wars” may lead one to believe that this is Risk with a Star Wars theme, it has pretty much nothing in common with Risk beyond the presence of five six-sided dice (which are not used in the same way as Risk dice). Variations: I'm told that the original Loopin' Louie game is used as a drinking game in some colleges, so perhaps this could be used for the same purpose if you're cooler than me and can handle more than one drink in the evening. Risk: Star Wars Edition, however, is not a re-skin of that game, but more of an “inspired by” (each game has three designers; Craig Van Ness worked on both). I picked up a copy and the new version is fun but I can’t help being partial to my version, of course.Rather, the closest inspiration for Risk: Star Wars Edition is probably The Queen’s Gambit, a classic (2000) original design Star Wars game set during The Phantom Menace.

When the Millennium Falcon comes near a player's Stormtrooper tokens, that player uses their paddle to make a quick flip to get Chewbacca out of the way. However, the Rebels cannot even attempt to destroy the Death Star until they have destroyed the shield generator. This 2014 Loopin’ Chewie board game has all sealed components, but the box shows minor marks from storage. Like the movie, Risk: Star Wars Edition features three distinct, related, and simultaneous conflicts – the Rebel’s efforts to sabotage the shield generator on Endor, the space battle around the second Death Star, and the throne room duel between Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, and the Emperor ( The Queen’s Gambit featured three interlocking battlefields (the epic duel against Darth Maul, the droid/Gungan battle on the plains of Naboo, and Anakin’s efforts in space to destroy the droid control ship). The players must balance the need to destroy the shield generator (or delay its destruction) with the need to maintain a viable tactical position in space to destroy the Death Star (or prevent its destruction).Loopin' Chewie is out and about and he's going to come after the Stormtroopers with his piloting skills! After I painted everything and sealed it, I started pulling original Star Wars movie images off the ‘net and incorporated them into the pieces to complete the theme.
