Star Wars – Knights of the Old Republic, including Darth Traya and Darth Sion, as well as the Ebon Hawk spaceship.

The new keyword "Intrigue" is not only thematically appropriate but also offers interesting gameplay possibilities. Behind this seemingly simple idea lie clever tactical options: Similar to the keyword "Smuggling," when you deploy your leader, you can play an Intrigue card from your resources (costs must be paid!) and replace it with the top card of your deck. The key advantage is that you can now play multiple cards at once. With clever use, this can ultimately shift the battlefield situation in your favor. Many new synergies, such as those created by the "Officer" trait, are also strategically relevant.
As with previous set releases, there are boosters and displays, spotlight decks and a pre-release box, as well as accessories from Gamegenic tailored to the new "Masters of Intrigue" set.
