Star Wars Galaxies Letter to the Community #1

SOE producer Grant McDaniel has penned a letter to the community within the official Star Wars Galaxies forums, in which he offers some preliminary information about the upcoming Trials of Obi-Wan expansion. A snippet:
What are some of the highlights of the expansion?

Star Wars Galaxies: Trials of Obi-Wan takes place on a harsh lava world unlike anything seen in our current game. There, you'll find a lava river and erupting volcanoes, as well as other dark and mysterious caves and dwellings. The expansion is built around the fiction of Mustafar, so there are many new story-driven quests, some of which revolve around Old Republic technology that has been discovered there. There will be lots of high-level loot, cool new reward items and features (including an increase in the number of ground vehicles that can be stored and used by the player), and many more exciting things that I look forward to sharing with you soon. All of these aspects combine to make this expansion look and feel like you are literally walking into the world of Episode III.
