The Star Wars universe is a galaxy of change. Fans have watched regimes rise and fall as the legacy of their favorite characters shifts and changes with the dramatic twists of the generation-spanning saga.

Fantasy Flight Games is proud to announce Legacies, a new 160-card booster set for Star Wars: Destiny, as well as two new 24-card Starter Sets, the Boba Fett Starter Set and the Luke Skywalker Starter Set. Legacies continues the evolution of Star Wars: Destiny, expanding on classic archetypes while introducing new mechanics, including a new die symbol and a new card type. As a new Base Set, Legacies serves as a solid starting point for Destiny newcomers while introducing innovative new concepts for veterans.

~ A Troubling Find ~

Legacies features a new dice symbol for Star Wars: Destiny — Indirect Damage, which can be a powerful tool, but comes with a major drawback. When you deal indirect damage to an opponent, they choose how that damage is dispersed among their characters. Indirect damage is powerful, but unfocused — sometimes great effects can even see you  dealing indirect damage to yourself.

Of course, some characters are used to collateral damage, like Doctor Aphra, Artifact Hunter (Legacies, 20). A brilliant scientist and explorer, Aphra’s life changed forever when she was recruited by Darth Vader after the Battle of Yavin. Aphra enters Destiny at eleven points for a normal version or fourteen for an elite. Her die features a ranged damage side, an indirect damage side, a discard side, a shield side, and a resource side. Doctor Aphra’s affinity for Droids gives you the ability to receive a one-resource discount on the first Droid you play each turn. Furthermore, her knack for trouble lets you draw a card whenever you deal indirect damage to yourself.

~ An Old Friend ~

In his older years, Obi-Wan Kenobi (Legacies, 32) served as a mentor to Luke Skywalker, while his legacy lies in the Clone Wars as a Jedi Master and General.

This younger version of Obi-Wan Kenobi enters Destiny at fifteen points, or nineteen for an elite. His die includes melee damage sides, two shield sides, and a resource side. Furthermore, anytime you activate Obi-Wan, you may give a character one shield. With both of his damage sides dealing an impressive three melee damage, Obi-Wan provides a solid offensive and defensive base, protecting your characters while dishing out damage.

~ A Veteran Pilot ~

Also introduced in Legacies is the concept of the Power Action, an ability that may only be used once per round. Power Actions are found on multiple characters, including famed pilot Wedge Antilles (Legacies, 41).

Wedge enters Destiny at eleven points for a normal version or fifteen for an elite. His die features an indirect damage side, a modified indirect damage side, a disrupt side, a shield side, and a resource side. His ability is a new Power Action that allows you to turn one of your Vehicle dice to any side. This can ensure a powerful blow to your opponents from a vehicle like Ghost (Empire at War, 28) or a U-Wing (Spirit of Rebellion, 31), but is, of course, limited to once per round.

~ A New Hope ~

Launching alongside Legacies will be two new starter sets for Destiny, focusing on two characters inheriting their father’s legacies: Boba Fett and Luke Skywalker. Both decks feature twenty-four cards, nine dice, and all the components you need to take your first steps into Star Wars: Destiny.

The Boba Fett Starter Set features the infamous Bounty Hunter, himself, as well as a Veteran Stormtrooper. Boba Fett (Legacies, 19) enters the game at twelve points for a normal version or sixteen points for the elite version. Boba Fett’s die includes a ranged damage side, a melee damage side, a disrupt side, a resource side, and a special symbol. The symbol allows you to deal damage to a character equal to the value showing on a die. This can turn your opponent’s greatest weapons against them and allow the bounty hunter to get the upper hand. Meanwhile, the Veteran Stormtrooper (Legacies, 13) costs nine points and is sure to dish out damage with two ranged damage sides and an indirect damage side. A resource side and two blanks rounds out his die, so while he’s not the most consistent character, he’s sure to support Boba Fett with additional damage.

The Luke Skywalker Starter Set features heroes from the original Star Wars trilogy: Luke Skywalker and Han Solo. While his Awakenings version (Awakenings, 35) shows Luke in his prime, Luke Skywalker, Unlikely Hero (Legacies, 31) is just beginning his journey through the galaxy, entering Destiny as eleven points for a normal version or fourteen for the elite version, as featured in the starter. Luke’s die features two ranged sides, a melee side, a shield side, and a resource side. As a Power Action, you may spend two resources to resolve one of Luke’s character or upgrade dice, increasing its value by two.

Fighting alongside Luke is the Savvy Smuggler, Han Solo (Legacies, 46). This version of Han can be played at eleven points for a normal version or fourteen for an elite. Han’s die includes two ranged sides, a discard side, a resource side, and a modified resource side. After you activate Han, you may reroll a die, either yours or an opponent’s. This is essentially a free action and can be used to mitigate a threat or reroll into something better for yourself. With powerful abilities, this unlikely pair of heroes is ready to take on whatever challenge comes their way.

With new mechanics and abilities for every color, Legacies will change the shape of Star Wars: Destiny for years to come.
