Kessel Run is a Light Effect (Utinni Effect) from Premiere Limited.
Card Text
Deploy on Kessel. Target one of your smugglers at another system. X=parsec distance between the two systems. When target reaches Kessel, opponent draws destiny. If = 0, starship lost. Otherwise, by returning to first system, 'retrieve' X Lost Force.
Lore
Planet Kessel has infamous glitterstim spice mines attracting smugglers and pirates. A 'Kessel run' is a long, dangerous hyper-route they must travel quickly.
Rulings
- May only deploy on the Kessel system location.
- The parsec distance between the systems is checked only at the time of Kessel Run's deployment. It is not checked again later (e.g. if a Death Star moves).
- If Light moving from Kessel to another system would complete Kessel Run, but also gives Dark control of Kessel which would cancel Kessel Run, resolve as competing automatic actions (the player whose turn it is chooses whether to complete or cancel).
- When the smuggler returns to the first system to make this card lost by its own game text, this Kessel Run is 'completed' (e.g. for purposes of Captain Lando Calrissian, Leebo, etc).
Combos
- Kessel Run + Ralltiir Freighter Captain + Ralltiir
