Star Wars: Silent Death Starfighter Combat Game (2001)

About this game

Star Wars: Silent Death is a ship-to-ship combat game based on the Silent Death game from Iron Crown Enterprises. The game uses a condensed version of the Silent Death rules to allow players to fight out battles between X-Wings, TIE Fighters, and other ships in the Rebellion era. Although it is a stand-alone game, the rules, ship displays, and poster-sized battle mat are suitable to play out complex starfighter battles in the Star Wars Roleplaying Game.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 2.9/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
