Han Solo won his Millenium Falcon in a game of sabacc. Personally,I think it would be really fun to gamble about goods and money,to discuss sabbac tactiks etc in game. Now,the rules of sabacc has never been explained (I think),but it would be pretty fun if the devs would come up with something atleast similar to sabacc. Lets just hope that wookies wont rip your arms off when you are winning

It dousent need to be something advanced,just something that allows players to gamble with eachother. Maybe a screen where you could put in stuff to gamble with. It would surely add more fun to the game,and strengthen the StarWarsFeeling


Post your opinion!

I would like to see some of these games go in, Dejarik, Sabacc, and Pazak. And I'd like to see smugglers gain a slight advantage in those games also.


As for the rules to sabacc, you can find them here and also play the game.

Sabbac is kind of a mix of poker and blackjack... the idea is to get as close to positive or negative 23 as possible.

There's also other winning hands, like the Idiots Array, which is literally 23 (the idiot, a 2 and a 3).

There's also other cards, that can modify the winning conditions, or the values of the hand... even worse, their effects depend on how they're turned up

From the sounds of it, it uses a deck much like that of a Tarot deck.

I would love to set up a las vegas style casino. I would know, I live there Of course there would be those two special back rooms. One for the spice deals and slicing, and the other for the 'entertainers' to make a little 'extra cash' that I could then skim off the top.

I don't care if we can craft them or not (I'd rather not). Let everyone play, but let us cheat!!

In one of the New Jedi Order books a Ryn talks about how the Sabacc deck was based on a deck of forune telling cards they use( and he tells Han's fortune), and the actual deck was based on a deck oftarot cards.

I don't think smugglers should craft ANYTHING. And while Smugglers should get an advantage in gambling...I don't think they should get that same advantage while gambling another player(s). No one would want to gamble with you. =P
