After some time has passed, sure. But this soon after so many paid for one expansion to be offered another that includes the one they just paid for, just seems unfair. Especially since this one costs less than JTL did at release.
Maybe giving it to current JTL owners at half price would be fair, I dunno.
I agree. It hasen't even been 6 months I've barely even played any JTL because I was focusing on my ground game first. I want a discount! Or be able to get a JTL not included version.

Only thing I can see is that JTL may not have done as well as SOE had projected; so why not clear some shelf space and just put the Ep III expansion and JTL in the same box. However, you cant help but to feel a little slighted since you, as well as I, purchased JTL at the full price.

Here's a quote from the SWG website:
"Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided™ and Jump to Lightspeed™ are required to play this expansion. Jump to Lightspeed is included with your order of the digital download expansion, Episode III Rage of the Wookies."
Now, if true, this would mean that those who paid for JTL would be paying for two expansions, while those who waited for this expansion would get both for the price of one. Not quite fair. There's a thread on the JTL Discussion forum about this as well, and the Pilot Correspondent is going to ask about this, but I thought we'd maybe get Wes in on the action too...
EDIT: Pointed to wrong forum. JTL Discussion, not Pilot, though it is the Pilot Correspondent.

I don't see what the big deal is
Someone can start playing the game outright and just buy the newest box. Makes perfect sense to me. Whats the alternative? Hoping to find a store with all 3 boxes in stock? Charging 3x more for the 3rd box then the original game?
If anyone one should be questioning charging for another box so soon after JTL, but I don't see any reason to question each expansion catchign one completely up to date.
