	Site, system and sector locations are grouped into conceptual planetary systems. (A Death Star is a mobile system rather than a planet system, but its locations deploy in essentially the same way.) There are six “major systems” (Tatooine, Yavin 4, Hoth, Death Star, Bespin and Dagobah), each comprising a system location card plus a variety of specifically related sites. In addition, there are numerous “minor systems” (Coruscant, Dantooine, Kessel etc.) which consist of just the system card (and a few sites in the case of Coruscant). Although most minor systems do not have any specifically related sites, there are ‘general’ sites such as ◊Forest and ◊Swamp which can be used at almost any system.

'''Decipher Comprehensive Rules''' is this wiki's single amalgamated document of Decipher's printed-era rules: [[Decipher Rulebook 2.0]], [[Decipher Glossary 2.0]], the [[Decipher Glossary Supplement]], and the later Decipher expansion rulesheets listed on [[Rulebooks]].

It contains '''no Players Committee modifications'''. For current PC tournament play see [[Players Committee Advanced Rulebook]].

The model is the LOTR-TCG wiki's comprehensive-rules article: one searchable page with section anchors, citing the original PDFs. Transcription of the Glossary (142 pages) and merge of the Supplement over matching entries is the next slice of this work.

Until the amalgam is filled in, use:

* [[Decipher Rulebook 2.0]] (wiki, complete)
* [[Decipher Glossary 2.0]] (PDF until transcribed)
* [[Decipher Glossary Supplement]] (PDF until transcribed)
* Expansion rulesheets on [[Rulebooks]]
