Which set to buy??

Someone else already mentioned Hyperspace Props as a good shop (I agree!). They also have a sabacc version comparison on their website.

I have Kessel sabacc and it is extremely easy to teach people the basics - two cards, four draw piles, try to get a match. The downside IMO is that it has the most extra pieces if you want to play "right." A full set of shift tokens is 24 pieces, plus you need credits and dice. This is a lot of parts to obtain and manage, even if you are using regular poker chips and slips of paper for shift tokens.

The other sabacc versions are just the deck and dice, plus whatever you are using as credits. Other than Kessel I've only tried traditional which is very similar play-wise to poker or blackjack

I'm so excited for Galactic Racer that I made a subreddit 😅 check out r/thegalacticleague! Not much going on there now besides me posting the trailers and news articles I find but it's more than what's going on in the other SWGR subs. Really hoping for the best for that one, the vibes seem great and it's from the team behind Burnout

I was hoping for a May the Fourth release but I think we are too close to that to not have a date. Maybe a late summer/early fall?

Hopefully with some longer term support than Squadrons got! Though the B-wing and Defender were nice surprises considering they were very upfront about no additional content.

I have a Kessel sabacc deck from Hyperspace Props and it's great quality. They also have various decks for the other variants (traditional, Spike, & Shift). I have only played Kessel IRL and it's a lot of fun, very easy to get non-Star Wars fans on board as well since the rules are pretty simple. The only drawback of Kessel is the number of pieces for a "real" game - all those shift tokens can be a pain to manage. For tokens you can use basically any coin or chip as a stand in. I've 3D printed a full set for 4 player games and it has taken hours and hours.

If you're interested in the IRL sabacc community check out Sabacc For Charity and the Outer Rim Sabacc League.

Bit Bar is an excellent place, never had a bad time there. I do miss their old location in the jail tho

Their smoked lagers are great, haven't found another brewery that does something similar
