This game is very similar to the earlier Star Wars Stratego game. Unlike that game, however, this one includes characters not just from Episodes I, II, and IV-VI, but from Episode III as well. There are 4 ways to play the game, each with slightly different rules - there is 1)Classic Stratego - The Star Wars Saga, which uses the traditional Stratego rules; 2) The Star Wars Saga with Special Powers, which is the same game but with special abilities granted to certain characters; 3) The Rise of the Empire - Episodes I, II, and III, which uses only the pieces from the first three episodes and in which the Anakin piece will switch sides from the Good to the Bad and, after being captured by the Good Army, gets to be replaced by the Darth Vader piece (special powers are used in this game and the board space is reduced); 4) The Rebellion - Episodes IV, V, and VI', which uses only pieces from the last three episodes along with all the special powers and reduced board space. Included are 40 white pieces for the Good Army and 40 gray pieces for the Bad Army, the rule set, display tray and board.
