Question: is there an ETA for this game you guys are shooting for?

[Haven]

Will Kylo Ren's fabulous hair be there?

[somasatori]

If your guys' game is as good as your damned artwork, then this is probably going to be the greatest SW MUSH ever.

Posting for cautious optimism.

[Sogan]

This game seems interesting, pretty eager to see how it turns out.

[Fantom]

Update: Its coming along. Chargen is just about done, D6 WEG system just about done, force system just about done. Porting penn to rhost is not an easy endeavor, but will be worth it. We are aiming for a late summer open, but I won't be setting a definite time as I want to have a superior gaming environment vs rushing some half assed half completed garbage out. I promise you, it will be worth it! In the meantime, enjoy my other artwork as you wait!

So the address is swmud... does this mean there's to be coded combat, econ, etc etc?

[Lithium]

@Tennyson An address is just an address. It'd be something if it was coded West End Games d6 combat though I highly doubt it's just the case.

I could name a MUX DikuRomLP.com and it still wouldn't be a mud using any of those code bases.

[Thenomain]

@Lithium

It still raises the question if it's a mud with coded etc.

[Warma Sheen]

I thought it was a MUD and had no interest. Didn't even bother reading on. Now that I realize it is a MUSH I am very interested.

[Fantom]

swrmud or swrmush. I'll go buy swrmush to make it easier lol.

There will be a fully coded WEG D6 combat system, and integrated D6 combat into our Hspace.

Full coded economy with planetary trade, smuggling, bounty hunting and a drug trade.

@Haven
Kylo Ren will be in the game, but as an NPC.

We are not having any FC's in the game. Reason being, the problem we saw on other games, were the FC's were fought over, and got the most coveted RP's and attention. So a player who was a cadet at the academy often got over looked because he/she wasn't a FC. Remove the FC's, and allow everyone to play an integral part of the plot/story arc. No favorites. No staff players playing the FCs. No drama.

God damn I love you, Fantom. Put a baby in me.

Seriously, though, the SWRPG MU crowd has had years of repeating the same mistakes over and over again and it's awesome that these past mistakes are being taken into account when dipping back into the WEG SWRPG well.

[Arkandel]

@Ghost Yeah, I think between "we focus on FCs and everyone else is their support cast" and "Jedi/Sith are special so YOU can't play one" the Star Wars genre has been unable to get where it could be for years.

It could still be bad if staff-played NPC FCs are the focus of every story but it doesn't seem like that's what staff intends in this case, which is good.

[Ghost]

As like any new MU, the ability to play fair, be inclusive, and work for something that is universally designed to provide RP and fun for everyone is always an option. Some of us older MUers have seen the same mistakes repeated from game to game, and some of the decisions ROGUE has made have been excellent. It's a GREAT start, and it's the exact kind of thing that will bring obvious complaints from older games to an end.

Now, all we have to do is have players come into the game with the right attitude, the right sense of fair play, and not repeat other past mistakes. Bring your fairplay A-games, people. This is a great opportunity coming.
