About this expansion

Star Wars: The Card Game – Ancient Rivals is a two-player Force Pack for Star Wars: The Card Game, with a play time of 60 minutes. Released in 2016, it begins the Opposition cycle and introduces the themes and mechanics that define it.

Throughout the Galactic Civil War, enduring feuds shape the struggle for control. Jedi and Sith confront one another in the age-old conflict between the light and dark sides of the Force, while the Rebel Alliance and Imperial Navy clash across planets and in the skies above them.

Ancient Rivals also explores rivalries among the galaxy’s smugglers and spies, as well as the shadowy forces of Scum and Villainy. The pack brings these opposing affiliations into focus with cards centered on their conflicts.

  • Focuses on four major rivalries: Jedi and Sith, Rebel Alliance and Imperial Navy, Smugglers and Spies, and Scum and Villainy.
  • Introduces new fate cards, including a new type featuring an affiliation.
  • Adds characters from Star Wars: Rebels to the Living Card Game.
  • Features new versions of classic characters including Dengar, Han Solo, and Darth Vader.

As the opening Force Pack of the Opposition cycle, Ancient Rivals offers a gateway into its central conflicts while expanding the stories and personalities of the Galactic Civil War. Heroes and villains, familiar faces and new arrivals all join the struggle.

Immerse yourself in the epic battles and rivalries of the Star Wars universe with Ancient Rivals. The pack contains objective sets 231–235.
