Across the Galaxy, the spark of rebellion has been lit in the wake of the destruction of the Death Star, the Empire's ultimate weapon.

Emboldened, the Rebel Alliance has significantly expanded its operations.

However, for your team, what began as a routine cargo run for Rebel Intelligence is about to take a drastic turn for the worse....

It is a time of civil war.
Throughout the galaxy, the outmanned REBEL ALLIANCE battles the GALACTIC EMPIRE. The Rebels have scored their first victory, destroying the DEATH STAR. Despite recent upheaval, the Galactic Civil War does not dominate the galaxy.

The REBEL ALLIANCE has discovered a plan by the Imperial Navy to test a new prototype starship, one that could decimate the Rebel Fleet. Unable to allow the weapon to remain in the hands of the EMPIRE, the Alliance deploys a team of operatives in an attempt to capture the prototype before it can be used against them.

Operation: Shell Game is an introductory adventure to Fantasy Flight Games second Star Wars RPG - Age of Rebellion. Where Edge of the Empire focuses on the scoundrels and explorers who keep out of the Empire's affairs, Age of Rebellion places players directly in the role of operatives of the Rebel Alliance.

Familiarity with Star Wars will be an advantage, but no system knowledge is required.
