OK, so they just announced the new Expansion Pack to come out along with the Episode III Movie and the CURB.
Read about it HERE.
What part will architects play in this new Expansion? Post your idea and questions (that maybe might even be answered! Maybe....)here...
- Will the new planet of Kashyyyk be buildable?
- Will we be able to create the hut-like houses for the planet?
- Will there be a new Kashyyyk Exotic Garden line? (PLEASE!)
- Will there be new craftable plants/paintings/furniture from the planet? Maybe some of this furniture could be looted as schematics or won for quests on the planet?
More to come as my brain tries to wrap itself around the possibilities....

Guess it depends on how they do Kashyyyk. If its all high end content then they might not make it buildable.
But if its a mix of content levels with some safe areas (higher up the trees) then we could have a part there. Making Kashyyyk style houses would be a welcome addition. I'd be really disappointed if they used existhing house styles on such a different world. A generic style house stuck up in a tree would be hideous.

That is extremely true. I think that if you want to make a house on Kashyyyk,you'd HAVE to be a Wookiiee first off, and that they should be those nifty saucer-like wood houses that stick out of the sides of trees and cliffs in some of the concept art for the movie. And they should require WOOD to be made. Hehe.

From the limited description on the press release, I'm inclined to believe that the planet will not be buildable - althought I truly hope to be proved wrong. They touched on new weapons (WS), armor(AS), cybernetics(DE, BE, Doc?), 100 new quests(all combat-related I'm sure), JTL ships(SW), asteroid mining (read: fewer harvester sales 
) and some other things - but did not make mention of anything Architect-related at all... a golden opportunity for Architect lovin', and yet seemingly overlooked. On a good note, the law of averages supports the notion that they can't ignore us forever....I just can't beleive that Wookies got so much love before we Archies even got a kiss.

Not sure how I feel about this new expansion with relation to the Archtect profession, I guess we will have to wait and see.

I too hope I am wrong, but I would guess the planet will not be buildable...
My reasoning is simply that not everyone can get there... makes it a bit of a waste from a vendor/shop standpoint, and from a GCW standpoint I can't see player cities and bases being put where only certain players (most I would think, but not all) can get there...
Just my thoughts...

I think mining ships will at the least require CRATABLE ORE MINING UNITS!!! Wooohooo!! Then we'll be getting tossed a big huge bone that we've been requesting for so long and just can't live without that we won't even care that they didn't give us anything new to make....or not.
There has to be some Kashyyykian furniture in there somewhere . Maybe a new buildable slavers pen?
Or maybe all the architect loving is coming in the GCW refurbishing and we'll get to make some form of strategic stucture that matters.....why aren't faction bases one use schematics to be crafted by declared Architects??? Maybe even have technical parts on the military structures where (GASP) experimentation actually results in things being different!!!

I wouldnt make it buildable because many people wont buy the expansion.
I am one that will not purchase this Expansion. I'll wait till expansion 4 to get expansion 3 for free. Im not going to continue to buy software when SOE will give it free to you on every other expansion released.
So just sit back and wait for expansion 4 and then pay for that and get 3 free. Just like they doing with JTL..giving it away free. I had to buy 2 copies.....NEVER AGAIN...
Since my JTL copies have never been open either because i got the Downloads off the internet and the CD keys were on back of CD's cases which i never had to open to insert cd keys into launchpad...I might just return my 2 software disc'sto the Store for a refund.

well it'll be unrealistic to make it buildable
since Kashyyykians are leving in trees
