Remember when Han Solo was still a scoundrel? Ah, the good ol’ days… A group of Hutts decide to place a wager to see who really carries the most weight throughout the Galactic Underworld. When it comes to setting a goal for this contest they decide to hire crews to seek out the fabled Yavin Vassilika — a legendary treasure which most sentient beings believe to be fictional. The best and brightest rogues of the Star Wars universe are recruited, and you won’t want to miss it as Boba Fett, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Greedo, Lando, Dengar, and others team up and square off to decide who is the best scoundrel in the galaxy!

The race is on as Han Solo and Chewie search the planet Kalkovak for information leading to the legendary Vassilika of Yavin. Things get lively, though, when hardcore bounty hunters Bossk, Dengar, and IG-88 show up with a laundry list of grudges to settle! And there’s nothing more explosive than bad blood between scoundrels! Throw in a swaggering Lando Calrissian, a seductive Jozzel Moffet, and a band of curious Jawas, and you’ve got yourself the fixings for a visit the locals aren’t too likely to forget!

It’s easy to get lost on the high seas of Mon Calamari, and when you’re 8-feet tall and covered with hair, that’s a prospect second only to Hell… Han, Chewie, and the rest of the Millennium Falcon’s passenger list scour the floating city of Mon Ubris for the man who can lead them to the fabled Vassilika of Yavin. Unfortunately his trail leads out across the vast ocean plains towards the mysterious Bank of Knowledge. Bossk and his fellow bounty hunters might want to think twice before crossing their paths, however, as there’s not much meaner than a water-logged Wookiee!

There’s a reason nobody ventures out beyond the Outer Rim, but that reason isn’t enough to dissuade the race of bounty hunters on the trail of the Yavin Vassilika… Finally located on display in the center of a primitive village, one would think it’d be easy pickings, but that sort of assumption can get you sentenced to a bizarre and painful death, as Han and Lando find out the hard way. Sure, the natives may look peaceful, but “peace” is a relative term… one that Boba Fett is prepared to redefine for them.

Following a lead provided by Jozzel Moffet, a Hutt’s majordomo, three teams set out to be the first to find the mysterious Yavin Vassilika.

They’re hot on each other’s trails, trying to stay alive and one step ahead of the pack. Meanwhile, the seductive Jozzel Moffet, wanting to free herself from a life of Hutt-washing, is moonlighting for a secret fourth investor and is hoping to get the Vassilika from whichever team is left standing!
