Welcome to this first article of Epic Battles and today I (Thorrk) am gonna tell you everything you need to know to play your own Epic Narrative Battle for Star Wars Unlimited!

The objective of this article is to give you the rules and decklists to recreate epic battles of Star Wars with minimum efforts, and have fun thematic battles in a balanced scenario.

The First Battle of Geonosis

Today’s Epic Battle is The famous first Battle of Geonosis, the event that ignited the Clone War. It’s a scenario for 4 players, 2v2.

In this battle 2 players will be take command of the Separatists and the other 2 players will enlist as the army of the Republic!

Objectives

The objective of the Separatist army is to destroy the bases of each Republic player, while the objective of the Republic team is to destroy the Droid Manufactory base (the base of the Nute Gunray player).

The team that reaches its objective first wins the game!

Special Rules

• Just like in Twin suns we have a Blast, Plan and Initiative token, players can’t soft pass, and have to claim one of the 3 tokens.
• The Blast Token deals 1 damage to one of the opponent bases, not both.
• Each player has a dedicated custom base with their own special rules.
• When a player has their base destroyed they are not eliminated, however base special rules don’t apply anymore. You can’t heal a destroyed base, but the aspect of the base can still be used. Only when the objective of the game is completed by either team does the game end.
• Unit, base, leader, Upgrade, controlled by your ally do not count as Friendly but they do not count as an opponent’s unit either.

Seperatist Decklists

One player will control Count Dooku and the other Nute Gunray.

Count Dooku – https://swudb.com/deck/view/dezpLSKgWA

Ignore the base displayed on the decklist, Count Dooku has the following custom made base:

Clarification: Obi-Wan comes into play as a deployed leader (exhausted) and when he is defeated he can still be used as a leader.

Clarification: Destroying Count Dooku’s base is completely optional but will allow you to get 3 free units on your side.

Nute Gunray – https://swudb.com/deck/view/yfJrUSRRWH

Ignore the base displayed on the decklist, Nute Gunray has the following custom made base:

Republic Decklists

One player will control Rex and the other Yoda.

Rex – https://swudb.com/deck/view/qGGUuloKdDu

Ignore the base displayed on the decklist, Rex has the following custom made base:

Clarification: the ability only triggers when the threshold reaches 10 and 20, if both thresholds are reached simultaneously the effect triggers twice. Also the ability only triggers the first time it happens, so If you reach the threshold once and then heal and then reach the same threshold a second time, nothing happens.

Yoda – https://swudb.com/deck/view/eFxqoHEbL

Ignore the base displayed on the decklist, Yoda has the following custom made base:

Clarification: The ability only triggers when the threshold reaches 10 and 20, if both thresholds are reached simultaneously the effect still triggers twice.

Also the ability only triggers the first time it happens, so If you reach the threshold once and then heal and then reach the same threshold a second time, nothing happens.
