Wizards of the Coast has announced that it will produce a new Empire Strikes Back card set for its Star Wars CCG this holiday season. Starters at $9.99 and boosters at $3.29 will street November 3. The new set will include favorite ESB characters, plus new characters and creatures including Snowtroopers, Snowspeeders, Wampas, Tie Bombers, and more. Two new card mechanics will also be introduced: 'Armor,' which gives units that incorporate it more durability than unarmored foes, and 'Enhance,' which gives many cards, especially Battle cards, a larger effect in exchange for a higher cost. New Location card types will also be introduced.
For the Holidays
