Im really not liking the choices.... each ones has been done or is extremely similar to ones the guild already tried. One involving playing canon characters equal in strength to Force-Using 'Gods'...
If any, I would opt for the KotOR, and take the place of the Exile or a freelance ally, prolly another FU.

Good point, but though they're similar, they've also gone unfinished.

Although I voted for Tamor V, I wouldn't mind the Clone Wars redux. It's similar to the RP I ran about a year ago, but far less complicated.
But mainly as long as it isn't the Revan/Exile RP.

Between those choices, I'd go for the Revan/Exile one, provided they be restricted a bit. Either whoever RPs them has to do so within a given range of character, or they just be NPCs. Otherwise, it's likely to be ruined.
Just a random thought here, but I'm curious. What about a Mandalorian RP? Like, everyone's a Mandalorian. Would that be at all worthwhile, or too close to the Band of Vode RP we had long ago?

I think a few of the expected 'regulars' such as cale and myself might object to more mando stuff, but then again, that's simply because we're overexposed.
Personally, my complaint is that there's not much breathing room in any of them to just be kind of random. That's just me though.
On a side suggestion, why not have something kinda "lost in space" ish? there's a lot of unchartered planets, even throguh Legacy, and a bad hyperspace jump lands us into epxloring new worlds. Then, it's kind of like even being in a KotOR games. Randomly jumping here and there a bit... Pick up new people and whatnot...

Hmm... I can see that being doable.
The Galactic Empire is on the verge of collapse, losing its hold on several worlds. Aboard one of the last few SDs still remaining in service, the Imperial forces are sent off into unknown space. Holding the ideals of the good of the Empire, they must discover new worlds and find new allies to help keep the dream of unity alive.
The idea behind that is kinda like Task Force Resolve, we're all aboard a Star Destroyer, but in this case, rather than eluding the Empire after going rogue and trying to find the Rebel Alliance, we're instead just seeking out new worlds and trying to help establish stability with the remainder of the Empire.
In this particular case, the Empire refers to the ideals of a united galaxy, without the oppressive regime. It's hard to get that back up and going when you're 1. just recovering after certain defeat thanks to decisive victories by the rebls, and 2. trying to be the good guys when the rest of the galaxy remembers you as evil tyrants.

ISDs wouldn't be sent out for that, especially when the empire's collapsing. Plus, i'd rather not be imperial so that people don't have to all come from one walk of life...

Well I figured the Imperial part would make it an interesting twist, since at that point everyone despises the Empire, forcing the characters to constantly prove they're in fact good guys, meeting distrust and grudges all the way.
