FYI – The tentative plan is for the test server to go down permanently Monday evening. EiF game and test servers will then be unavailable until launch. Launch Day is still planned for May the 4th!

One of the most incredible, memorable, and often immersive things about Star Wars Galaxies was the community. Didn’t really matter which server you played on either. The community was active in-game. They participated in the server-wide events. Some people even going so far as to create toons on other servers in order to participate. They were always welcomed to join in. Players created content, such as the Nomad Market on Starsider. The Saturday PvP events in space were legendary (Yes, I am aware we do not have JTL yet and space events are not possible currently. <3)
The forums were hopping with people; Their ideas, their teasing, always ready to offer up opinions or participate in boisterous discussions.
The EiF forums has a poll up for feedback on types of community activities you would like EiF to provide. http://empireinflames.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=58 Some activities I really enjoyed from my SWG days. Maybe you’ve seen some on other forums you would like to participate in with EiF. My guild in TOR had some really fun forum games. Please head to the forums and give me your feedback and share ideas! You can also respond here or tag me in Discord.

Ever feel limited by the choice of races to choose from? Did you pretend to have a Nightsister by dressing up a human female in NS clothing? Have you had a burning desire to play a Hutt or a Gungan?
Empire in Flames is your opportunity! One of the most unique features and benefits of playing on EiF is the vast assortment of character race choices.
The Devs have dug into the files of the SWGEmu and discovered more playable races. They have tweaked them and worked hard to bring them to the EiF community. Some races are gender specific, most are available to either a male or female toon. Peruse the list below and drool over the wide array of playable races available at Launch!
WIth the launch date less than a week away, it’s time to start planning now!

Launch Day is ONE WEEK AWAY!
Have you started thinking about what kind of building or house you want? Planning your business venture? Want a place to train your militia? Maybe just a place to craft or a house which is more like a closet for your wardrobe?
All the houses you loved before and now some of the NPC buildings you only dreamed about will be available to players. Take a look at the list!
Each of the listed NPC buildings are available in each of three styles; Tatooine, Corellia, and Naboo.
If you need a reminder of the layout, head to Mos Carova on the Test Center and take a look!
Below is a listing of the player housing which existed prior to EiF.
So much excitement ahead. I can’t wait to see what people choose, how they use and decorate them!
