YES I WOULD LOVE THOSE TWO! Maul is very high on my list, hoping for him to be the next cover villain. Also I wonder if Bo Katann could work as a villain from earlier clone wars. I would also quite like to see Starkiller
Boba fett, cad bane, Aurra Sing. Bounty hunter pack. Jabba, Qi’ra, and some other for a Crime lord pack. Maybe also Greedo and his mission is to shoot Han first.
Also really struggled with Kylo. Felt like I was stacked with resources and couldn't use it enough to then lose everything within 2 turns. His fate deck is so brutal
Thanks, Joe! It could be a great place to dive in. I definitely think it’s a case of picking your favorite characters/genre and playing them first because you love the theme. Thanks for watching! ☺️
Fantasy Flight's Star Wars games have exceptional artwork, and much of it is reused across their different games, so they get a lot of mileage out of it. Ravensburger probably didn't want to invest in a lot of new original artwork if this is the only SW games they'll produce.
Could not agree more with Kylo. His fate deck is too aggressive and unlike each other character, he doesn't have an efficient way of dealing with it. For me what I like to do is change Crushing Hope to act like Lady Tremaine's condition card, where you pick the two fate cards and choose which gets played and where. Also making Snoke behave like the Client so that it gives a free ambition action, and changing the maneuver card to an item it is more easily accesible. With these tweaks I feel like Kylo has a lot more power to fight back against the overwhelming fate deck built for him.
I love villainous, it’s one of my favorite board games but I was worried because I was not a fan of the marvel villainous. I just got the Star Wars villainous for Christmas and it’s a lot of fun!!
This was a good review. Kylo is very hard to win with aha. Wish he was a bit easier. You gotta use snoke a lot. Overall the game is great. The biggest fault is that off Gideon is too easy played a certain way
There is usually a little bit of a delay in getting it outside of the US! Here in the US it’s available from Amazon and Target. Hope you can find it soon!!
We think it’s a great adaption/continuation of the Villainous line! We’d recommend getting the one whose stories you like best. If Star Wars is your favorite, this one is for you!
Interesting review. I find Kylo Ren is nerfed compared to the others - as long as you have Snoke it’s straightforward, and if you lose him you can get him back. He’s always won when I’ve played!
Glad to hear you've had better luck!! In the 5 games we had Kylo Ren in play, he never came close. Everyone was pretty good about fating him regularly enough though. If you don't watch him or fate him I could see him winning more.
There certainly have been a lot of divided opinions on them!! We've enjoyed them, but I know every figure looks different, so ours may have been manufactured in a way that we found more pleasing :)
@@TerreDiceGames to me if they had just used a glitter or some sort of process that made it look sparkly or something I would like it. But my grievous literally has white tissue or something sticking out his eye and my darth Vader looks ridiculous with these white cylinder beads at the bottom super clear and nowhere else. My other figures look fine. Just those two.
@@KMReviews maybe Grievous needed a tissue for all the crying he does losing! :) Yeah, seriously though sounds like you might have lost the randomization lottery. But hopefully you've enjoyed the game!
Great review of each character! Thank you for a thorough rundown of each. Our copy almost looks like bird poop on dark Vader, but not a deal breaker thankfully!
The B-/C+ specifically refers to art direction, which we hold to a high bar :) still agree this is worth picking up, much the way folks ignore the photo grabs used in Ark Nova :)
@@TerreDiceGames there's supposedly a rumor going around that the next disney villainous expansion is going to be animal themed with Shere Khan, Bellwether and Mor'du, but I'd take it with a grain of salt.
That would be awesome and very current! Yet somehow to me she doesn’t feel like much of a villain. She believes she’s doing the right thing and generally doesn’t seem inherently evil. Bad guy? Yes. Villain? Not so sure!
The only reason I did not get the last Disney Villainous expansion was because Toy Story and Incredibles have different animation (and art on the cards) than the classic Disney animation... so this Star Wars edition bothers me waaayyyyyyy more lol
Hi, I really like your channel you guys make a really cute couple. Congratulations on your baby on the way!!I love your entusiasm and overall fun and sweet vibe that you guys give. Thanks for the review I will subscribe to your channel.
We were in and got exclusive coverage of the first official VILLAINOUS TOURNAMENT! ruclips.net/video/_T--b2TVqhM/видео.htmlsi=eqFkVtJCyCLR8AYk
Who would you like to see in the Star Wars Villainous? We would personally would love to see Darth Maul and Cad Bane!
Jabba, Darth Maul, Palpatine and Bobba Fett
YES I WOULD LOVE THOSE TWO! Maul is very high on my list, hoping for him to be the next cover villain. Also I wonder if Bo Katann could work as a villain from earlier clone wars. I would also quite like to see Starkiller
Jar jar binks because he’s obviously the one behind everything in all of star wars.
I love it 😂 yes to Jar Jar!!!
Dedra Meero from the new Andor show. That show rocks!
Boba fett, cad bane, Aurra Sing. Bounty hunter pack.
Jabba, Qi’ra, and some other for a Crime lord pack.
Maybe also Greedo and his mission is to shoot Han first.
Other crime boss could be the pyke leader from the book of boba fett. Or Pre Vizsla
Fantastic choices!!! Jabba would be funnn. 😃
Shadows of The Empire Prince Xior
Cool! Good thinking :)
I was anxiously awaiting for y’all’s review of this one! Been having a reaaaaallly good time with it myself!
nice!!! who is your favorite to play so far?
@@TerreDiceGames I’ve only gotten a chance to play Kylo and Moff, but excited to try them all!
Hoping to see Darth Maul and Grand Admiral Thrawn in future expansions!
Definitely!!!
Also really struggled with Kylo. Felt like I was stacked with resources and couldn't use it enough to then lose everything within 2 turns. His fate deck is so brutal
Definitely feel this!!
Great review! My wife and I haven’t tried Villainous yet, but it’s on the list! The Star Wars theme looks pretty fun.

I didn't realize that FFG re-uses across games, but that makes a lot of sense and sounds like a solid business model - you're probably right here!
Best review I seen on this game I'll have to check it out myself I love star wars .
Thanks so much! It’s a fun one. Definitely check it out!
Hoping for Count Dooku!
That would be excellent!

Thanks for watching! We agree, the game is good!! Kylo is a bit tough but we are enjoying our plays!
Suuuch a good game! I love how thematically accurate it is, each character plays in a way that totally fits their particular theme.
That’s always been our favorite part about Villainous - thematic integration is definitely done very well!
Maul not being included seems like a major oversight. Hope he's in the first expansion!
Definitely a headliner for a future expansion!
It makes sense to keep out power houses like this for the first expansion box cover
@@carmellujan9797 for sure. Maul, Palpatine, and a Bounty Hunter like Cad Bane or a Fett seem like obvious choices.
They saved maul and boba fett and emperor for the expansion
With Boba now as an anti-hero, I'd expect Jabba.
It should be Thrawn, but Disney made him unimportant.
Is it available outside the US already? Can't find it on amazon here.

@@TerreDiceGames It’s kind of marbled through him but there is a very white spot right on top of his head we thought was paint at first! lol
B- or C+ means for an American “Fantastic!”? For me as an European that is something between “Good” and “OK”.
The B-/C+ specifically refers to art direction, which we hold to a high bar :) still agree this is worth picking up, much the way folks ignore the photo grabs used in Ark Nova :)
@@TerreDiceGames Thanks for the explanation!
I wonder if you could still play this against Disney Villainous characters since they're all self contained and fate still affects characters the same
Let us know if you try it how it goes!
This game is surprisingly fun as a solo game! I LOVE the Disney version and am having a blast with this Star Wars version now!!
Oh that’s awesome to hear!! Glad you’re enjoying it ☺️
Have you heard the rumors of the next disney villainous set potentially being leaked on the discord and reddit?
Hey there! We heard about an announcement about a Marvel Villainous Venom solo pack. Any other fun rumors you've heard?
@@TerreDiceGames there's supposedly a rumor going around that the next disney villainous expansion is going to be animal themed with Shere Khan, Bellwether and Mor'du, but I'd take it with a grain of salt.
Dedra Meero! Let's rise through the ranks of the Imperial Security Bureau and neutralize the threat of Rebellion!
That would be awesome and very current! Yet somehow to me she doesn’t feel like much of a villain. She believes she’s doing the right thing and generally doesn’t seem inherently evil. Bad guy? Yes. Villain? Not so sure!
The only reason I did not get the last Disney Villainous expansion was because Toy Story and Incredibles have different animation (and art on the cards) than the classic Disney animation... so this Star Wars edition bothers me waaayyyyyyy more lol
Certainly a similar approach to the art! Seems like it’s the new way for Villainous :)
Mandan mim is soooo fun!!!! Rethink the last expansion
@@carmellujan9797 we love Madam Mim! She’s a lot of fun :)
Wait, Count Douku is merely a card?
Could be a future villain :)

Thank you SO much DMJ, that means a lot to us!! :) We really appreciate your support. Thanks for watching!
Funny the one actual play I've watched of this game was Kylo vs Grievous, and Kylo won easily.
Wow! Glad to hear others have had more luck :)
Asajj is so hard
Oof, the art inconsistencies and just screenshots for vader's deck is a real turn off
Yeah. The art has improved drastically in the latest expansion (Revenge at Last)!
My family
Has been able to win with Kyle in a 4 player game
Awesome!!!
