Greetings all. It's been a while since I posted anything here. My enthusiasm kinda waned a while back. Action hero Jedi, Evil Jedi, and Pirates pretty much soured this project for me. I was working my way through my ideas and trying to incorporate some cool ideas that were offered by others, but then the conversation swung in directions that I couldnt make work with where my story was headed. So I took a step back and tried to come up with some info that may help anyone's ideas.

I was thinking about a ship. Someone mentioned earlier that we need our Millenium Falcon, and I agree. I was thinking of something like a space age tractor trailer...now dont scoff yet. What I mean is Anakin's Spice Freighter. What if it was a nice sized ship, but its connected to much larger freight tanks? This way it has a large slow first impression, but the main drive of the ship can be used for the daring escapes we may need in the story.

I've also been thinking about artoo and 3p0. I would still like to see 3p0 start with more confidence (remember Lucas originally thought of him as a used car salesman) but see him him beat down enough in the NPT to become the worrywart we know in the OT. I was also thinking about how 3p0 called artoo his "counterpart." This implies they really are a set that needs to be together. We need to see that happen. maybe 3p0 is the only one that can translate his particular buzzes and whistles.

Just a couple of ideas.
