2024-04-19	This card came together by attaching a bunch of red words together: grit (red), reward for damaging a base (red), ready a unit (red). We allowed it to see your own base being damaged as a comeback mechanic, which I always prefer	Tyler Parrott	Guerilla Attack Pod • FFGStaff
2024-04-19	Be sure to have the exact upgrade or Mandalorian cards you need with the new card, This is the Way!	Fantasy Flight Games	This Is The Way
2024-04-17	We wanted an anti-control card, something that really punished players for accumulating cards and not putting them onto the table. But we didn't want to wholly take away peoples' agency, so we decided to reset to 2 cards instead of discarding all of them	Tyler Parrott	Smoke and Cinders • FFGStaff
2024-04-17	With the ability to deal damage to an opponent’s unit equal to his power, the Crosshair unit can make quick work of your opponent’s units while keeping his HP intact!	Fantasy Flight Games	Crosshair, Following Orders
2024-04-17	With two new mechanics already revealed for Shadows of the Galaxy, it’s time to check out the final new piece: Smuggle! Read on to see how the Smuggle mechanic can help you play cards that you had carefully hidden away	Fantasy Flight Games	Rules • Smuggle
2024-04-16	With the Command and Villainy aspects, the Crosshair unit card has two abilities. Can you guess what they may be?	Fantasy Flight Games	Crosshair, Following Orders • Card Reveals • Shadows of the Galaxy
2024-04-15	Underworld Thug is the perfect litmus test for me: it's consistently too weak to be desirable (good, it's colorless), but as a vanilla it provides a clear curve of how power increases as cards acquire aspects.	Tyler Parrott	Underworld Thug • FFGStaff
2024-04-15	We’re back with another art drop for Shadows of the Galaxy! Can you guess the name, subtitle, and aspects of the character below? Tune in tomorrow to see if you were correct!	Fantasy Flight Games	Card Reveals • Art • Shadows of the Galaxy • Lore:Crosshair
2024-04-12	We couldn't have a Mandalorian starter without Grogu. The little guy went through lots of revisions as we tried to get across "distract & debuff," and it wasn't until we realized we could achieve it with more HP ...	Tyler Parrott	Grogu, Irresistible • FFGStaff
2024-04-12	With Chirrut Îmwe as the leader, this deck focuses on powering up one unit with as many upgrades as you can find and making sure your opponent’s pesky Sentinels don’t get in the way...	Fantasy Flight Games	Deck Tech • Chirrut Îmwe, One With The Force • Joe O'Neil
2024-04-11	It’s not all bounty hunters and smugglers in the Shadows of the Galaxy! The Bad Batch arrives in StarWarsUnlimited this July!	Fantasy Flight Games	Lore:Hunter • Art
2024-04-10	Moff Gideon was introduced as a leader of an army of troopers (storm, death, and dark), so we wanted "small units" to be his identity. The key was making sure the power buff on his front was conditional enough and in-color...	Tyler Parrott	Moff Gideon, Formidable Commander • FFGStaff
2024-04-10	Livestream in 15 minutes! Let's talk about art in Unlimited!	Tyler Parrott	Art • Shadows of the Galaxy • FFGStaff
2024-04-10	Today, we’re diving into the world of our fantastic art directors! Check our latest article where Tony, Jeff, Kate, and Steve chat about art direction, favorite art pieces, and what excites them about their work on STAR WARS: Unlimited!	Fantasy Flight Games	Art • Livestreams
2024-04-09	Be careful, the Shadows of the Galaxy are full of untrustworthy characters and unpleasant creatures.	Fantasy Flight Games	Art • Lore:Salacious B. Crumb
2024-04-08	Mandalorians in Set 2 have a prominent "upgrades matter" theme given the importance of their gear (in and out of lore). Also, we wanted this character to work with Bounty upgrades. Hence the "when you play an upgrade" trigger...	Tyler Parrott	The Mandalorian, Sworn To The Creed • FFGStaff
2024-04-05	When we designed the colorless cards, we wanted to hit certain goals: make colorless units to reward certain traits, serve as late draft picks, and provide metagame answers to problematic play patterns...	Tyler Parrott	Restock • FFGStaff
2024-04-04	The Rebel leaders excel at working together, but which one do you play most often? Let us know in the comments below!	Fantasy Flight Games	Leader • Heroism (Aspect)
2024-04-03	Shadows of the Galaxy! Let's go play "outside the law" for a few months, shall we?	Tyler Parrott	Shadows of the Galaxy • FFGStaff
2024-04-03	This card has surprised me. I usually overlook grey cards, as they're intentionally at a low power level on account of having no deckbuilding cost, but we did also want it to be a reward for Vehicle decks (regardless of color) ...	Tyler Parrott	Frontier AT-RT • FFGStaff
2024-04-03	We're chatting about the Shadows of the Galaxy First Look at 1pm CST!	Fantasy Flight Games	Shadows of the Galaxy • Livestreams
2024-04-02	Star Wars Unlimited: Featured Deck: Emperor Palpatine – Premier	Fantha Tracks	Deck Tech • Emperor Palpatine, Galactic Ruler
2024-04-01	Iden Versio was intended to be the blue/villain "control deck" leader, so I wanted to make Inferno Squad align with her. Gideon fills the role of "giant finisher" & the fact that they have the same triggering condition ...	Tyler Parrott	Gideon Hask, Ruthless Loyalist • FFGStaff
2024-03-30	I know everyone LOVES decklists! So here are the top 8 lists from the 1k at @BanishZone in PA.	Golden Dice Podcast	The Banish Zone 1K • Deck List

2024-03-29	Much has been said of this card's theme, but I want to talk about how well it's balanced. We want good card draw to be "pay X, conditionally draw X cards" which this is. Also, we would never dream of 3 cost deal 7, ...	Tyler Parrott	I Am Your Father • FFGStaff
2024-03-28	Everybody's got that one card that they just seem to keep opening. What's yours? (I've opened 8 Bodhis over about 3 boxes)	Tyler Parrott	Pack Distribution • FFGStaff
2024-03-27	Force Lightning was guaranteed to be in Set 1—it's one of the most iconic things in all of Star Wars. In previous SW games it has always been a "defeat a unit" style card, but we wanted it in red...	Tyler Parrott	Force Lightning • FFGStaff
2024-03-26	Week 2 brought a change to the most popular decks being built on http://StarWarsUnlimited.com. Check out who has jumped into the Top 5 below!	Fantasy Flight Games	Deck Ranking
2024-03-25	We'll be going live Wednesday at 1pm CST with Danny and Tyler! If you have any questions about game design, card interactions, or even what Spark of Rebellion decks they have been playing, drop them in the comments!	Fantasy Flight Games	Livestreams • Design
2024-03-25	It's me! We'll be chatting about Unlimited design on the livestream. If you've enjoyed my "Designer Insights" that I post regularly here, you'll love our discussion on Wednesday!	Tyler Parrott	Livestreams • Design • FFGStaff
2024-03-25	There was never any doubt in our mind that this card was going to exist in Set 1, with this text & title & aspects. The only question was one of cost. We tried it initially at 7 resources for a while...	Tyler Parrott	Superlaser Blast • FFGStaff
2024-03-25	Our team had an amazing time attending PAX East this weekend, playing dozens of games, and chatting about STAR WARS: Unlimited! Thank you all for joining us!	Fantasy Flight Games	PAX East
2024-03-24	It’s the last day of PAX East, so be sure to join a learn-to-play or stop by the designer signing sessions from 2-3pm!	Fantasy Flight Games	PAX East
2024-03-23	We are delighted to be featured alongside such amazing companies for the ImperialMarch event! If you’re in NYC, check out our display at the Empire State Building!	Fantasy Flight Games	ImperialMarch • Products
2024-03-22	This card was BUSTED for a good chunk of playtesting, so we brought it down to desirable levels (which is to say, an exciting dream to chase but not risking an unfun Sneak Attack Meta™). We intentionally made it cost 2...	Tyler Parrott	Sneak Attack • FFGStaff
2024-03-22	We did not have playing Star Wars Unlimited on top of the Empire State Building on our 2024 Bingo card! Happy StarWars ImperialMarch	Fantasy Flight Games	Jim Cartwright • Surena Marie • Joe O'Neil • Imperial March
2024-03-21	Attending PAX East? Swing by booth TT92 to play in our Designer Duels from 12-2pm or 3-5pm and challenge Danny and Jeremy to a game of STAR WARS: Unlimited!	Fantasy Flight Games	PAX East • Danny Schaefer • Jeremy Zwirn
2024-03-20	We want to thank the community of players, collectors, and retailers around this game for the overwhelming support since release! This is only the beginning!	Fantasy Flight Games	Product Distribution • Retail
2024-03-20	Late in development we realized red/villain aggressive decks needed some ways to finish off an opponent who stabilized at low base HP, and we didn't like our design for the Raider...	Tyler Parrott	Ruthless Raider • FFGStaff
2024-03-19	With the release of Spark of Rebellion, we’re beginning a new segment: Top Decks! Each week we’ll let you know the top five leaders that players are building around utilizing http://StarWarsUnlimited.com	Fantasy Flight Games	Deck List
2024-03-18	With Y/V having a small "events-matter" theme in Set 1, it made a lot of sense to make a cheap discount unit. Being shielded makes him more survivable, and since we wanted this unit to be strong, we made him a named character...	Tyler Parrott	Bib Fortuna, Jabba’s Majordomo • FFGStaff
2024-03-13	Grit is an interesting keyword because it scales nonlinearly based on the unit's HP. Having grit on a 2 HP unit is significantly weaker than having grit on a 5 HP unit, etc...	Tyler Parrott	Scout Bike Pursuer • Grit • FFGStaff
2024-03-11	One of red's weaknesses is dealing with high-HP units. Red gets access to board wipes as a control tool, but only for small units—beyond the first 3 HP, you'll need to use Tarkintowns and Sabine (unit)s and Seventh Sisters to finish them off	Tyler Parrott	Bombing Run • FFGStaff
2024-03-09	Release weekend! We're playing prerelease sealed!	Tyler Parrott	Release Date • FFGStaff
2024-03-08	Got my decks ready for release weekend! Spent some time hunting down the showcase leaders I want to build decks for in Set 1, now the hyperspace hunt begins	Tyler Parrott	Showcase • Hyperspace • FFGStaff
2024-03-08	It's been a long (almost) three years since we started down this road, but here we are. I've been floored by the audience reception to the game. It's so much fun to play and it's so rewarding seeing everyone's enthusiasm...	Tyler Parrott	Release Date • Thankfullness • FFGStaff
2024-03-07	Heading to PAX East? So is the STAR WARS: Unlimited team! Be sure to stop by Booth TT92 for a demo or swing by the signing sessions daily. This will also be the first event where we feature Designer Duels...	Fantasy Flight Games	PAX East • Demo
2024-03-06	That sounds like an accurate assessment. It's hard to play an 8-cost card in draft/sealed, so I would expect it to show up mostly in constructed, unless you build a deck that's specifically full of ramp or early-game control	Tyler Parrott	Reinforcement Walker • Draft • FFGStaff
2024-03-06	One of the weaknesses of ramp is that it easily gets run over by aggro decks. So we wanted to include an expensive green unit that can consistently heal your base, but intentionally gave it weaker stats so it's vulnerable to removal...	Tyler Parrott	Reinforcement Walker • FFGStaff
2024-03-05	Don't Get Cocky was a card concept I loved from the Star Wars LCG (when I played that game), being a particularly fun sequence from my favorite Star Wars movie. I insisted we have an event with this title & art...	Tyler Parrott	Don't Get Cocky • FFGStaff
2024-03-05	🤔 You know, come to think of it, 'people living in the Shadows of the Galaxy' probably does include scavengers, doesn't it?	Tyler Parrott	Lore:Rey Skywalker • FFGStaff
2024-03-04	Interested in having the designers of STAR WARS: Unlimited look over your deck and offer advice? Drop your deck lists from http://StarWarsUnlimited.com in the comments for your chance to have your deck featured on an upcoming livestream!	Fantasy Flight Games	Deck Tech • Livestreams
2024-03-01	When I worked on L5R, one of the most notorious cards in the game was Let Go—a 0 cost event that defeated any upgrade. It was too strong, but the real issue was assigned to a faction so only 1/7th of players got to use it...	Tyler Parrott	Confiscate • FFGStaff
2024-02-28	Me he enterado de que hay publicidad con mi poster en el metro de Madrid/Bcn. ¿Alguien sería tan amable de mandarme una foto bien hecha si se encuentra con él? Gracias	David Buisan	Art • Advertizement • Spanish
2024-02-27	Segundo sobre de starwarsunlimited tcg y me sale una legendaria hiperespacio? Me sale una legendaria hiperespacio!!!	D.a.Dos	Crack-a-Pack • Spanish
2024-02-27	Well well well, what do we have here? Star Wars Unlimited Spark of Rebellion. Thank you @FFGames and @Asmodee Canada ... Stay tuned, more reviews to come.	The Nerd Shelves	Spark of Rebellion Two-Player Starter • Accessories
2024-02-27	It's not that rare leaders /don't/ work well in limited, but rather that they're /optimized/ for constructed. Additionally flexibility isn't /bad/ in constructed, ...	Tyler Parrott	Cassian Andor, Dedicated to the Rebellion • Le Festival International des Jeux de Cannes • FFGStaff
2024-02-27	...it's possible that Cassian and Sabine would make more sense with swapped rarities, and we even discussed it. But at the time we were concerned Cassian would be too /strong/ in draft, and we didn't want to compromise his design.	Tyler Parrott	Cassian Andor, Dedicated to the Rebellion • Sabine Wren, Galvanized Revolutionary • Sealed • Rarity
2024-02-27	It’s time to clear and regain control of the battlefields! Utilize Superlaser Blast to eliminate all potential threats on either side and start fresh during your next turn	Fantasy Flight Games	Superlaser Blast
2024-02-25	I had an incredible time at Cannes this weekend. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly, and I was thrilled at how excited everyone was after they played Unlimited. A full weekend of playing games, signing cards, the unparalleled livestream today w/	Tyler Parrott	Le Festival International des Jeux de Cannes • FFGStaff
2024-02-25	We're opening packs on stream, and then chatting after!	Tyler Parrott	Le Festival International des Jeux de Cannes • Crack-a-Pack • FFGStaff
2024-02-25	Last day of Cannes Festival! Will be opening a LOT of packs on stream for the next few hours, then will be hanging out at the Unlimited booth for the rest of the day. Come find me and say hi!	Tyler Parrott	Le Festival International des Jeux de Cannes • FFGStaff
2024-02-24	You know what's really cool? Your first showcase being the one leader from the set that you'll be playing the longest	Tyler Parrott	Showcase • Grand Inquisitor, Hunting the Jedi • FFGStaff
2024-02-24	Some sealed decks I've built this weekend so far (there was a fourth that I played on camera but I forgot to save it, and the deck was /quite/ bad)	Tyler Parrott	Le Festival International des Jeux de Cannes • Sealed • FFGStaff
2024-02-22	With the release of STAR WARS: Unlimited a few weeks away, it's time for a refresher on the six aspects! For a quick look at each one, check out our new video playlist:	Fantasy Flight Games	Category:Aspects

2024-02-21	We are hosting a StarWarsUnlimited Celebration Event at Twickenham Stadium in London on March 23rd! This one day event will put Jedi against Sith against Spy against Bantha Farmer in a test of skill and dedication!	Organized Play Events	Star Wars Unlimited Celebration Event - Twickenham
2024-02-21	Haha because the cycle was never by trait. This is the first time someone's noticed that three of the common upgrades share a trait (Resilient being the 4th common upgrade)	Tyler Parrott	Learned • Vigilance (Aspect)
2024-02-20	Thank you to everyone who joined us in person and online for the STAR WARS: Unlimited Community Celebration last week! We also want to thank everyone who has joined us on the journey so far and we cannot wait...	Fantasy Flight Games	Star Wars: Unlimited Community Celebration • Release Date
2024-02-20	See you at Cannes!	Tyler Parrott	Le Festival International des Jeux de Cannes • FFGStaff
2024-02-20	I didn't realise I needed a foil Greedo card in my life until today.. 😁	Sorastro's Painting	Greedo, Slow on the Draw • Foil
2024-02-19	Keep the pressure on your opponent’s base with the Showcase variant of the Sabine Wren leader!	Fantasy Flight Games	Sabine Wren, Galvanized Revolutionary • Showcase
2024-02-19	I'd call heroism/villainy bases an 'if' not a 'when'	Tyler Parrott	Heroism (Aspect) • Villainy (Aspect) • Base • FFGStaff
2024-02-19	In Set 1, the Force is intentionally skewed towards red and blue (that won't always be true). When deciding what the BB unique sentinel should be, the Bendu felt like a natural home as a giant neutral Force unit—and after that...	Tyler Parrott	Bendu, The One in the Middle • Force • FFGStaff
2024-02-19	I'm so excited to try out the new Star Wars: Unlimited card game by FFG! I really love the art style they chose to go with, with it's gorgeous retro kind of vibe. And it's awesome that they include the key word definitions on the actual cards! 😀	Sorastro's Painting	Art • Products
2024-02-16	The Comprehensive Rules for STAR WARS: Unlimited are here! You can read up on specific rules interactions, formats, and more on our website:	Fantasy Flight Games	Comprehensive Rules
2024-02-16	I'll admit, I felt very clever coming up with it 🤣	Tyler Parrott	Rukh, Thrawn's Assassin • FFGStaff
2024-02-16	Most species don't get traits; we generally only include traits that we intend to support mechanically in the future, plus certain /super iconic/ Star Wars species.	Tyler Parrott	Category:Lore/Species
2024-02-16	Green is not normally supposed to get shielded, but we wanted to make an exception for Rukh, both for theme (he's a sneaky assassin) and for mechanics—his defeat-by-damage ability played horribly when it worked on defense...	Tyler Parrott	Rukh, Thrawn's Assassin • Command (Aspect) • Shielded
2024-02-16	Exactly as planned, Grand Admiral Thrawn’s Showcase variant has arrived! Allowing you to see the top card of every player’s deck will put you one step ahead of your opponent at every turn!	Fantasy Flight Games	Grand Admiral Thrawn, Patient and Insightful
2024-02-14	Gamorrean Guards have been popular since their introduction in the '80s. Originally we had just a single Gamorrean Guard, but when the unit kept getting larger it felt appropriate to pluralize the concept...	Tyler Parrott	Gamorrean Guards
2024-02-12	In early design, this was Temple Guard Chirrut, showing that not everyone is always heroic or villainous. When we made Chirrut a leader, that let us include Baze—and while it's odd for him to not match Chirrut's aspects...	Tyler Parrott	Baze Malbus, Temple Guardian • FFGStaff
2024-02-11	I am a deeply unserious person but this was an exceptionally fun event! The game is so fun and the cards are absolutely gorgeous. Thank you to the @fantasyflightgames team for having me and for having the DJ play Party In The USA.	Krystina Arielle	Star Wars: Unlimited Community Celebration
2024-02-10	Unlimited kickoff event! We got a livestream going for the next few hours!	Tyler Parrott	Star Wars: Unlimited Community Celebration • FFGStaff
2024-02-10	Just drafted a Leia control deck. Time to find out if this is a meme or not	Tyler Parrott	Leia Organa, Alliance General • Echo Base Defender • Draft • FFGStaff • Star Wars: Unlimited Community Celebration
2024-02-10	Game one against @TheJodoCast Joe, let's go!	Tyler Parrott	Sealed • The Jodo Cast • FFGStaff • Star Wars: Unlimited Community Celebration
2024-02-10	Pretty good starting point to a sealed deck I think...	Tyler Parrott	Sealed • Luke Skywalker, Jedi Knight • FFGStaff • Star Wars: Unlimited Community Celebration
2024-02-09	Limitless card draw is one of the most dangerous things we can put in a game. This line of text is really exciting and thematic, but when he can start drawing cards right away, and potentially create a repeatable engine...	Tyler Parrott	Card Draw • General Krell, Heartless Tactician • FFGStaff
2024-02-09	Most of Set 1 was designed bottom-up, and we liked a GG unique that made all your other units defeat into cards (very green). The character choice for this card was immediate, and when people internally love ...	Tyler Parrott	General Krell, Heartless Tactician • FFGStaff
2024-02-08	Bail Organa – Rebel Councilor helps prepare your units for battle by giving them experience tokens, boosting their Power and HP!	Fantasy Flight Games	Bail Organa, Rebel Councilor
2024-02-07	New card revealed: Saw Gerrera	David Buisan	Saw Gerrera, Extremist • Art
2024-02-07	A common way to make common unit concepts is to take a beloved character and "genericize" them. (In this case, Chirrut.) Fortunately, the comics were a huge boon because the Guardians of the Whills have appeared as an organization..	Tyler Parrott	Guardian of the Whills • FFGStaff
2024-02-05	The STAR WARS: Unlimited Community Celebration Livestream will be kicking off this Saturday! We’ve invited guests from the community to join us for a day of games and you can join the link below to catch all of it!	Fantasy Flight Games	Star Wars: Unlimited Community Celebration
2024-02-05	Make your opponent think twice before playing that event with this week’s Aggression card!	Fantasy Flight Games	Saw Gerrera, Extremist
2024-02-05	There was never any question about whether or not we would cross arenas in the first set. However, it did illustrate a size discrepancy between the arenas: if a TIE Fighter is on the ground...	Tyler Parrott	Strafing Gunship
2024-02-02	Our final leader for Spark of Rebellion has arrived! With the ability to damage your opponent's units at the cost of defeating your own, the Emperor Palpatine leader card allows you to take control of one of those damaged units when he is deployed!	Fantasy Flight Games	Emperor Palpatine, Galactic Ruler
2024-02-02	The reason Star Wars is so great for TCGs is that everything is somebody's favorite. I can make even a simple draft common exciting to someone by making it an aspect of the lore that they love, and who knows—maybe being a Jawa will matter some day!	Tyler Parrott	Jawa Scavenger • FFGStaff
