Style pass (2026-10-15)

Missing data

  • Packaging section said "predetermined deck lists follow", but the page has no lists of the two 60-card preconstructed decks.

Possibly faulty data

  • Jim Colson (BoardMatt interview, 2022, 51:56) says mass-market (Kmart/Walmart) boxes held white-border packs and hobby boxes black-border packs; the Collecting Encyclopedia 3.2 says the box held one Premiere pack, Limited in the first ~50,000 boxes and Unlimited after. Kept in the article as Colson's account.

Marginal cuts

  • Sources list merged into refs: Collecting Encyclopedia 3.2 PDF and starwarsccg.org/collecting (ref "encyc"), Wookieepedia (lead ref). Wiki links Spanish Premiere Two-Player Game rules booklet, Cancelled German release of SWCCG and Translations of SWCCG were already in the lead and See also.

Credits section (27 October 2026)

Build notes

  • Added a Credits section from the credits page of the rules booklet, Introductory Two-Player Game Rules Booklet (1995), credits page (Preserved copy). The Preserved copy was checked by sha256 against the live PDF (identical files). Names and thank-you wording follow the printed page; every person is linked, and the people without pages are red links.
  • The Wookieepedia lead ref pointed at "Premiere Introductory Two-Player Game", which is not an article there. It now points at Premiere Two-Player Introductory Set (Preserved copy) (publisher Decipher, distributed by Parker Brothers, February 1996), checked against the live page. That article does not call the game the third product; that wording comes from the earlier text and was left as it was.
  • Added Preserved copies to the two YouTube refs in Packaging (archive.org item youtube-PRRkRBHlo-o; Wayback capture of the TV ad watch page, checked for title, channel and upload date).

Possibly faulty data

  • The booklet prints the playtester "Shawn Smallman". The wiki has a page for Sean Smallman, a later Decipher staffer (1997–2001). They may be the same person, but that is unconfirmed, so the credit links "Shawn Smallman" as printed. See Talk:Sean Smallman.
  • The booklet lists "Bob Madison" and "Will Madison" as two separate playtesters. The fan anagram list gives "[Bob/Will] Madison" for Imperial Trooper Guard Dainsom; see Talk:Bob Madison and Talk:Will Madison.
  • Mike Gray, thanked with Carol Wisely "for turning a million instructions into fewer rules", may be the Parker Brothers and Hasbro designer Michael Gray, since the game was a joint Decipher and Parker Brothers product. That identification is possible but unconfirmed; see Talk:Mike Gray.
  • The booklet is copyright 1995; the infobox gives the release as February 1996. These are a copyright year and a release date, so both are kept.
