I know you told me to send it to you phruby, but i also wanted to see what everyone else thought of it, so i posted my background story so i posted in the stories thread. I left some things vague intentionally and i'm not the greatest writer in the world, but hope it at least gives you guys some good ideas.

-Centare: Rise of a planet-

Although the planet Centare has seen many years of history and without a doubt countless wars, some didn’t believe that it even existed, as it’s native species did not ever leave the planet until its later years. Slightly off of the Perlemian trade route, and with its neighboring planets, Mandalore and Obroa-Skai, many thought it was too close to the deep core to be a habitable planet. The humanoid, Centarens thought otherwise.

From time to time traders would be forced to make “pit stops” on the planet and would be stripped of their valuable items and killed. This acquiring of technology from many civilization’s led the Centarens to grow rapidly, not only by using the weapons or other items they had gathered, but by improving on them.  For many years, the Centarens advanced in technology, not only improving life in the dense jungle outskirts and City core of their planet, but creating a means to make a formidable army as well.  The Centarens became so advanced that it was questionable as to whether they would be able to stay unnoticed for very long. Cautious of the now emerging galaxy the Centarens formed their army and began to train for battle. By 3996 B.B.Y the Centarens had amassed a full fledged military and when war brought itself to the doorstep of Centare they were prepared for the burden it would be on their world.

-The Mandalorian Wars-

Seeking to use the planet as a supply and hyperspace jump point (unknowing as to how difficult hyperspace jumps from the deep core are) the Mandalorians arrived on the planet in force during what would later be called The Mandalorian Wars. Much to the Mandalorians surprise they were met with a military of great strength and the Mandalorians were driven from the planet, leaving some of their prized armor and weapons, along with many of their comrades. They vowed however, to return someday and conquer.  Little did the Mandalorians know, they would be caught on the planet of Onderon and devastated, by Republic forces just one year later. This would not stop the long feud that would later exist between the two civilizations.

-A time of peace?-

Years passed and peace had found itself on Centare. The wars of factions and planets had stopped and the Centarens began to again focus on technology and were not as cautious of other planets as they had been in the past. Centarens had perfected Hyperspace jumps in the deep core and with this discovery were not only able to travel, but were now able to use the close by Perlemian trade route, which stretched from Courscant, through Taanab and all the way past Felucia. As the hyperspace technology spread across the galaxy many different species came to Centare in search of goods and many of the usual shops and cantinas that were so popular on other planets began to open up. The planet of Centare gained massive wealth from this trade route, but peace could not last long. They began to swim in greed as the military generals wanted to use their newly gained power to conquer planets (namely mandalore) and the higher politicians seeked a partnership with the Republic in order to establish more trade routes passing through and around Centare. The Centarens began to destroy themselves from the inside as the civilization split into two factions, the Neshan and the Bosok. The Neshan which inhabited the jungle area of the planet used guerilla warfare to harass the Bosok city dwellers who were “too filled with pride to use what works” said the Neshan leader commenting on how the Bosok refused to use the Mandalorian inspired armor that the Neshan swore by.

-Unable to fight another war-

By 23 B.B.Y. the factions had crumbled and while the technologies they had established remained intact (both on Centare and off world thanks to the, its people were devastated. They began to rebuild. A year later the Seperatist movement had rose and little did they know all their reconstruction would be in vain as the planet of Centare would be host to many battles (most of which had no strategic significance) during the clone wars. By 19 B.B.Y. the Centarens were in dire need of assistance with rebuilding their planet and negotiatans were opened up with the Republic. Unfortunately, the Republic had sunk and the newly formed Galactic Empire was established too soon for the Centarens to get any real help.

-A Precious Commodity-

Under an Imperial rouse, Imperial Transports and StarDestroyers carried down stormtroopers as Centarens in complete disbelief were being gathered by the thousands and branded as slaves to the Empire because of their technological prowess. Grand Moff Tarkin spearheaded the campaign and said only this about the planet. “We have gathered a precious commodity on Centare, its people.”

Sorry to hear all that Kevin.

The one question that jumps into my mind though - is, were there any other places you could have been getting your bread from?  Threatening to take your business elsewhere is generally a good first step when they're giving you the run-around.


I agree that would be a good course of action, at that point i wouldn't even threaten though, probably just act as it seems their service sucks majorly.  Good luck with getting going or closing down. Either way sorry to hear of your troubles

I'm interested in starting an ongoing project on my epiphone les paul gothic. Recently i was introduced to an interesting tuning to my lovely little 6 string. I would like to string a set of 7 string guitar strings onto it, but leave off the last e string of the set. the problems are:

Nut slots arent big enough

bridge slots arent big enough

So what i'd like to do is chop the last string space off of a 7 string guitar nut piece and cut a hole into my guitar to accomidate a new bridge so that i may string those strings through my guitar.

Would it be easier to just by a 7 string guitar? probably. but what fun is that??

anybody go about doing this at all or know if this is possible?

Love the bespin Luke. Definitely an improvement on the figure as well as a great idea with the head swap thing.

Thanks for  the comments guys  8) to answer the question about the BARC speeder, it actually wasn't that difficult to paint in one piece so i didn't take it apart. Was a bit tedious at times, but I wouldn't say it's too much of a pain and i would say the results make it well worth it  8)
