Friday Feature Underground Adventures - 05/21/2010

Whether you are newly Combat Level 90 in Star Wars Galaxies or one of our seasoned veterans, the Death Watch Bunker is one of the more challenging places to visit in-game. As many in our community have noticed, we have updated several areas lately and encourage everyone to visit these revamped locations. You never know what new adventures or rewards you may find waiting in the depths of these destinations. Today we welcome you to

THE DEATH WATCH BUNKER

Boba Fett has discovered that an ancient splinter group of Mandalorian mercenaries, known as the Death Watch are not just the stuff of myth and rumor but are operating out of a hidden location.  Fett's network of spies has also discovered that the Death Watch assassins have contracted a sizable contingent of the Black Sun to help in their unknown plots.  Are you brave enough to find out what these heinous villains are up to?  Work your way through this adventure zone with over six action-packed quests and unique crafting missions to find out what has brought these ancient warriors out of hiding!

Background

For thousands of years, the Mandalorians served as fearsome mercenaries, working throughout the galaxy to help the highest bidder win wars and topple governments. Several years before the Clone Wars, the last of the Mandalorians were wiped out by the Jedi. Only Jango Fett survived. The galaxy at large generally believes the Mandalorians to be extinct throughout the galaxy, with Boba Fett possessing the last remaining set of ancient Mandalorian armor.

The Death Watch splinter group is a mysterious mercenary unit, using their fearsome battle armor and training to wreak havoc for the highest bidder. For ages, this group of surviving Mandalorians has remained in hiding on a planet in the Outer Rim. Now, this tiny sphere has seen Imperial scouts nosing about and landing supply ships. The Death Watch wants to know why. To help maintain their secrecy, they have contracted with the criminal organization known as Black Sun. The Death Watch and Black Sun mercenaries are keeping an eye on what the Empire is doing, for now; they're deciding how to manipulate the situation to their favor.

The Black Sun

The Empire's control of the galaxy and the efforts of a ragtag Rebellion marked key moments in galactic history. Lurking in the shadows of the Empire was the Black Sun, a vast criminal organization possessed of incredible power and influence. The syndicate's tentacles reach everywhere - from the polished spires of Imperial Center to the seamiest Outer Rim tavern.

Many of the organization's tens of thousands of operatives had no idea that they were benefiting Black Sun, so layered and intricate were the fronts that the syndicate hid behind. Black Sun had involvement in every known type of illegal activity, and its information network rivaled the accuracy and scope of even Imperial Intelligence. This deadly clan of privateers has their own unique armor!

The Death Watch

Having remained completely hidden for decades, the Death Watch will not take kindly to being disturbed and will do anything to keep their hideout hidden and their plans secret. Among the many foes you will face in their bunker, expect to see different types of Death Watch Warriors - the Death Watch Bloodguard, Ghosts, Wraiths and the Overlord!

The Death Watch Bunker

The Death Watch Bunker is the hideout of the remaining Mandalorians and their Black Sun allies. It contains some very interesting features, including the only crafting facilities in the galaxy capable of making Mandalorian Armor.

The Death Watch Bunker is a challenging adventure zone with over 70 rooms designed for large groups to play through. It is not an instanced dungeon, but access is not as simple as just showing up to the front door. Not only is the bunker guarded by dangerous Black Sun mercenaries, but access to the bunker can only be gained by talking to the one person who might have a clue about how to sneak in...

Adventurers who dare to travel to the Outer Rim, cavort with criminals and manage to sneak into this most deadliest of places will face Black Sun Assassins, Mercenaries, guards, henchmen, super battle droids, battle droids, droidekas, and blastromechs. Throughout the lower levels of the bunker, players will face the Death Watch blood guard, wraiths, and the hardiest may even encounter the Death Watch themselves!

Bring Friends!

The Death Watch Bunker is a difficult, high-level adventure zone meant to be played with large groups of allies. Should you be brave enough to venture inside, expect fierce resistance, hidden foes, angry beasts, and even environmental dangers. This is no ordinary criminal hide-out!

Dangerous Allum Mines

Once inside, players will face many challenges. Mandalorian armor requires special materials to be crafted. To attempt to create this rare and exquisite armor, players will have to search the depths of the Allum Mines, located below the bunker. The mine tunnels are contaminated with bad air and the air filtration systems are not working correctly, so players will have to find or build environmental protection masks (also known as rebreathers). Although gas masks can certainly be found inside and outside of the bunker, players will have to venture within the bunker with an able crafter who has the correct skills to modify gas masks to filter out the deadly Allum mine gas.

From there, players will have to gather all the necessary components and remain in the company of a crafter with the right skills to craft this powerful armor.

Good luck to all who decide to take on the Death Watch Bunker. May the Force be with you

Have you visited the Warren lately? - 05/24/2010

The Warren

This top secret Imperial experiment facility is run by Boris Teraud. As of late even the Empire has begun to wonder what exactly has been going on in this mysterious facility. An Inquisitor was dispatched to investigate the situation but has not reported back. Now strange cybernetic life forms have been seen in the general area of the Warren and workers have been desperately trying to escape this vile place, and tell stories of the horrors that await the unsuspecting.

BBP CUSTOMER NOTICE: The firm responsible for monitoring incubator activity for BBP wishes to apologize for the lack of concrete data concerning the unstable DNA situation. BBP wishes to make it known that those responsible have been terminated. BBP announcements have thus been reconfigured at great expense and at the last minute. Unstable DNA variations have completely usurped (and have therefore become) the native forms of all Crystal snakes, Spined snakes, and Fanned Rawl. These creatures are no longer resistant to efforts to obtain viable DNA samples. :END NOTICE
