GAME mechanics

• Placing Parts - In Carcassonne: Star Wars, players alternate turns to place hexagonal tiles representing different regions of the Star Wars universe, such as planets and asteroid fields. Each piece must be positioned by correctly connecting it to adjacent pieces, forming a continuous galactic map. This mechanic is at the heart of the game, emphasizing strategy and planning.
• Allocation of Workers - After placing a piece, the player can choose to place a worker, represented by miniatures of Star Wars characters, such as Jedi or Sith. These can claim specific territories, such as planets or trade routes, which generate points according to their development throughout the game.
• Building Networks and Routes - Players create spatial routes by connecting route tiles, forming trade or strategic paths that can be controlled to earn points. It is essential to plan well in order to maximize the area of influence and block opponents.
• Influence / Majority in the Area - Players compete for control of areas of the board, trying to have the most workers on planets or complete routes. Whoever has the largest presence collects the most points, making efficient and strategic worker management vital.
• Data Scrolling - A striking difference in this version is the inclusion of dice-rolling combat. By claiming a territory with the presence of opposing workers, players engage in combat, which is resolved with dice. Luck can turn the tide of the game, making every decision tense and exciting.
• Modular Tray - The Carcassonne: Star Wars board is built piece by piece, making it unique for each game. This modularity guarantees high replayability and new challenges every game, as no two maps will ever be the same. The feeling of building your own galaxy is part of the allure of this revamped classic.
