Here's the thread to my new story. Here you can comment, discuss and analyse this idea. Chapters will be posted on a weekly basis (hopefully ) and will likely be the first active "series" of the new year. I'll be posting the link here soon, so please have fun reading and if you have any criticism I would more than welcome it Sweet!

I loved it Mav ! For the first chapter it was well written, detailed, and fast paced. I like the not so long, and not so short versions of the series because I normally don't have the time to read them. But I really liked the direction that you are going in and TOR is a great setting and time for this. I can't wait for Chapter 2! *And I'm not sure if you care or not it didn't affect the enjoyment of the first chapter but I just noticed a few grammatical/spelling mistakes like you put 'your' instead of 'you'.

Was the opening crawl supposed to be like the crawl at the beginning of the SW movies because I totally imagined it like that But that was a good chapter, Mav. Carletta seems like an interesting character and having a female protagonist is a nice change. Definitely excited to read the rest

Nice opening to the series, Mav. This is the idea you had for the group series, isn't it? It looks like it'll be a cool story. Any idea how many chapters there will be? Or are you just writing it as you go?

Or are you just writing it as you go? Yep. It was going to be a story arc, but it didn't work out. Not sure how many chapters there will be, but it'll be less than twenty I can definitely say.

Does anyone know how I can update my story? I've edited it on the doc manager, but I can't seem to go beyond that.

Click 'Sign in' (and sign in if you need to) Go to 'Publish' then 'Document Manager (Upload)' Then EITHER click 'Edit/Preview' if the document is still there and make the amendments (making sure to click 'save' when you're done) OR if the document is not there change the story in word/works/notepad/etc and upload it again or just upload it and change as above. Next, go to 'Publish' > 'My Stories' Then click 'edit' on the story you want to change. Then click 'Content/Chapters' And use the bottom box to 'Replace/Update Chapter with new Content' Select the chapter you want to change in the first box and the new or newly changed document in the second box. Then just click 'Replace Chapter' and you're done!

For now, this is going to be a one off story. However I may change my mind which is something I do a lot of

Strong opening Maverick. I could picture everything perfectly in my head as if it was a film Btw, Fun-fact: Kaas is the Dutch word for Cheese so i snickered a little bit at Kaas City Sorry.

Yeah, I know. Truth is, Kaas City was created for the game TOR, not by me. If this were a more comedic story, I'd be tempted to take the name literally

Another great chapter Mav! I'm assuming Lasc and Gyb will be main characters in the upcoming chapters? Or were they just one time men. I do like Darth Lasc, he isn't your typical wicked Sith. But this will be one heck of a story that I can't wait for. Good job!

It's annoying, since I like writing about them and I can't find a way of fitting them back in the story.

I might actually make a short story about after I'm done with HC. I guess I just really like their bad cop/sorta more humorous bad cop dynamic

I read Chapter 1. Really cool idea and set up. The only thing is her mother seems on death's door and this plan seems like it might take a while.

I just read both chapters both good stories and your writing is expertly done. Yeah I remmeber this was a story you had for the group series awhile back for TOR timeline and stuff. Well cool to see you're still going through with it. All the characters are good but I think the empire is a bit too nice especially Lasc. Thsts just my observation. Also you may want to delete chapter 2 off of chapter 1 since you kinda have them twice.
