Star Wars: X-Wing Miniatures Game

About this board game

Star Wars: X-Wing Miniatures Game is a tactical ship-to-ship combat game for 2 players, with battles lasting about 45 minutes. Take command of powerful Rebel X-wings or nimble Imperial TIE fighters in fast-paced space combat.

Each ship has a unique piloting dial, which you use to secretly select its speed and maneuver each turn. Once all plans are made, dials are revealed and maneuvers are executed according to pilot skill, creating tense moments as ships close in, break away, acquire targeting locks, and unleash laser fire.

• Fully assembled and painted miniatures
• Three unique missions with individual victory conditions and special rules
• Secret maneuver selection and ship-specific piloting dials
• Dice-based combat and a shuffled Damage Deck

Damage can do more than reduce a fighter’s ability to withstand attacks. Damage cards may assign special handicaps, such as affecting a ship’s targeting computer, limiting its weapons, or injuring its pilot. These unpredictable consequences ensure that combat outcomes and tactical decisions remain meaningful throughout every engagement.

The included missions support a range of tactics, rewarding clever and versatile pilots. Varied maneuvers, customization options, and changing combat results help make each mission play differently, while the quick-to-learn rules put players directly into the action.

The starter set includes scenarios, cards, and everything needed to begin playing. Star Wars: X-Wing also provides a foundation that can be expanded with favorite ships and characters from the Star Wars universe. First released in 2012, it was later reimplemented by Star Wars: X-Wing (Second Edition).
