Star Wars Galaxies Trading Card Game: Champions of the Force:
The Star Wars Galaxies Trading Card Game: Champions of the Force is here! The Trading Card Game can be accessed in Star Wars Galaxies by selecting "Card Game" in the game menu or by typing /tcg in the command line.
Beast Master:
The beast minimum, maximum, and damage per second displays on the Examine window of a beast now reflect the beast happiness bonus.
I got myself a nice Clone Trooper painting from my deck. Haven't quite figured out how to play the thing yet. It looks very nice and I like the dash, but I may just check once a month for loot cards.

Star Wars Galaxies Trading Card Game:
* The random collection item received when a level 90 character uses a loot card that rewards experience (such as the Nuna-Ball Advertisement) has been updated. Unintended schematic items have been removed from the list and additional collectibles have been added.
On Tuesday, October 14, at 4:00 AM PDT all U.S. and European galaxies will be taken down for server maintenance and a live update. Please note that this will be an extended downtime period due to additional hardware maintenance during the downtime.
When the update is complete, all galaxies will be live but unavailable while we complete final testing. All galaxies will be made available after that time.
4:00 AM PDT (Los Angeles) / 6:00 AM CDT (Austin) / 7:00 AM EDT (New York) 11:00 AM GMT / 12:00 PM CET (Berlin) / 8:00 PM (Tokyo) Click here for a Time Zone Calculator.

Galactic Moon Festival:
Visit the Galactic Moon Festival Organizer, Z'ozpheratu, outside of the Moenia and Mos Eisley starports (waypoints 4790 -4777 and 3523 -4806 respectively).
Talk to Z'ozpheratu to obtain a costume to use for trick or treating, purchase special Galactic Moon Festival items, and find out more about the festival.
All costumes have a thirty minute timer. Costumes cannot be worn while in combat.
If you're in a trick or treating mood, be sure to approach any poor unfortunate souls hanging around and say "Trick or treat!" If they are not scared, you may want to try using a Trick or Treat projector.
If your costume is scary enough, citizens will have Galactic Moon Festival coins to give you which can be used to purchase special holiday items that Z'ozpheratu has to offer.
63 Month Vet Reward:
Players who have played Star Wars Galaxies for 63 months can choose a mini-replica of either the Yoda Fountain or Emperor's Statue. These statues are similar to the ones seen during the Empire Day anniversary event. These statues are sizable but small enough to fit inside any home.
Game Play:
Removed a giant spire that would sometimes spawn on Tatooine near player structures.
Fixed a Nightsister spawner on Dantooine.
Fixed an issue that was randomly breaking customization for some objects. Long Uniform Gloves, certain Rodian hairstyles, and other objects should now be appearing correctly.
"Removed a giant spire that would sometimes spawn on Tatooine near player structures"
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo They've taken our Granite Love Gun away :( Amber Ridge just aint gonna be the same. That's really gonna spoil the view from Hades. I reckon we should still keep the tents in a huge circle as a mark of respect for the KS ****.

Galactic Moon Festival:
NPC responses to "Trick or Treat" should now only be heard by the player that said it, not other players in the area.

Game Play:
Weapon trail and sound effects should work properly again.
Galactic Moon Festival:
Player height is no longer changed when putting on a costume. This means a tall Wookiee will be a taller Jawa in costume, for example.
It should no longer be possible to get stuck in a costume even after the buff has been removed.
Max Rebo's Collected Classics: Dirge can now be bought by any profession, not just entertainers. To learn the song you still have to be an entertainer, however.
Spies can no longer use Decoy while in costume.
The Galactic Moon Festival hanging house sign now works on player owned cantinas.
