	Description Edit \| History

A cooperative board game in which players take the roles of Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Chewbacca, and/or Leia Organa and attempt to escape from the Death Star by shutting down the tractor beam and getting to the Millennium Falcon without being killed. The game system provides the opposition, in the form of Stormtroopers, Darth Vader, and various hazards. The game system also provides assistance through C-3PO, R2-D2, and Obi-Wan Kenobi. All of the players must reach the Millennium Falcon in order to win. If even just one of the players is captured, the game is over for everyone.

Escape from the Death Star Character template Redesign

These new templates allow you to play the game without pencil/paper to mark changes to character stats. Included are new templates and a sheet of counter tokens to be used to indicate changes in stats (e.g. +/- counters, stormtrooper counter, Obi-wan, etc). The template sheet can be printed out on a 8.5x11 sheet and has all characters on it, making it easier for solo play. They can also be cut out so that you have four individual sheets.
