In this week’s show we discuss the new behind-the-scenes video talking about crafting the story for Knights of the Fallen Empire, whether it’s wise to play through Chapter 1 at TwitchCon, and the class changes for Imperial Agents and Smugglers. Oh, and some more Star Wars humour!

1. Introduction

The latest Galactic Gamers Coalition is now available, hosted by Max and Sema of the SWTOR Escape Pod Cast.

Here is Chill’s Space Lizard:

3. Holofeed

• BioWare have published a video about “Story and Writing” in Knights of the Fallen Empire (also on YouTube). They also released 30 seconds of gameplay footage from the “Become the Outlander” trailer.
• EA is scheduled to show Knights of the Fallen Empire at TwitchCon at 2:30pm on 26 September.
• It seems you can now list Warzone Medpacs and Adrenals on the GTN.
• The class changes for Imperial Agents and Smugglers coming in Knights of the Fallen Empire have been published.

4. Community

Our guildmate Fyonha has created a cartel for Ootini Knights/Ragers in the mobile game Star Wars Uprising. All are welcome! Her character in the game is Fyonha Glorificus.

We highly recommend checking out the post for the 1v1 PvP tournament being held on the German RP-PvE server Vanjervalis Chain. Their video is particularly epic!

Sechari is back! Drop by his Twitch channel to find out how he’s preparing for Knights of the Fallen Empire.

Blachloch sent us a better picture of his character’s Black-Hole Force-Lord headpiece:

Njessi (@HawtRepublic) is back, and is posting to her site hawtpantsrepublic.com. Of particular note is The Return of the Revenge of the Hall of Shame.

Adam let us know that it appears that following the events on Yavin 4, Revan’s followers have been reduced to peddling bathroom supplies:

Lewis referred us to this Star Wars product which indicates that the future of lightsaber construction is fraught.

Freedious believes that Chill should find a costume similar to this one for the NYC Community Cantina cosplay contest:

Michael B sent us this article about a young Chess player who always play dressed as a Jawa!

Kal directed us to this cartoon:
