Star Wars Shatterpoint is a small-scale skirmish based miniatures game by Atomic Mass Games, focusing on powerful heroes and villains. Using a mix of characters and units, players fight over objectives to fill their side of the struggle meter. The game uses a mix of oversized cards and minis to play, along with a slew of accessories.
As the name suggests, Tall Boy sports cards are taller than traditional sports cards. Tall Boys are about 4 11/16 inches tall, compared to the standard 3 1/2 inches height. Tall Boys are the same width as common cards, 2 1/2 inches.
