Updates

• Fiction Forum—If you want to go ahead and post some Star Wars book reviews or comments in the sub-forum I set up, please do. Post a title you liked or didn't like, maybe where an excerpt can be found and then give a review of what you thought and if it's worth picking up.

Give some detail on the author's style and how you like it. I'm not a big fan of most of the Star Wars authors out there, but there are a few worth following. Matt Stover comes to mind. In real life the guy thinks quite a lot of himself, but his writing is well done and very much not the standard bullshit they feed us. Check out Shatterpoint if you haven't.

You can also put your fiction in the fiction section. I haven't gotten to moving them all yet.

• This Month

Time of War: Assets—This is a three-part competition that will run through April. It combines fiction with a few puzzles for some variety.

Swordhand—One-shot competition dealing with the mentoring of students in the various lightsaber forms.

• Coming Next Month

Time of War: Direct Action

Projects

• Dark Council Armed Forces—This is pretty much done. I completed the organization tables, wrote some wiki-like supporting docs, the concept doc, etc. This is being passed around for tweaks and error-checks. Nothing too exciting here though.

• In-character News Page—I also have the concept for this complete. Making this a part of the DB site is another matter so I'll update when I know something.

• Discipline System—This too is nearly done. It ties into a lot of current and future systems so not the easiest thing to guage when it will be 100% complete.

• Plot Updates—The update has been updated. This should get the ball rolling on giving the DB a continuous and evolving plot.

We have a bunch of things going these days and are trying to push things out to the members as they become available. We think these products will offer a bit richer experience here than what we've had in the past.
