Coruscant.   I'd like the city for a little while, and when I get tired of it it'd be super easy to buy/sell/trade my way onto a ship headed for anywhere else.  

Naboo. The scenery, the architecture, the culture..... aaaahh! ;D

I'd have to put up with Gungans, but that would be a small price.

Would your choice alter if you kept to the theme...you, a normal mundane human type person, is whisked away to the location (I had intended the location to actually be a place and not a thing such as a ship, but it is just a silly exercise in fun anyway lol).

You arrive, as yourself in all the human glory that you look at each morning in the mirror.

So no force powers, no Jedi or sith potential, just mundane human.  What ever skills, experiences, potential that you have at this moment is what you have where ever you chose to go  :)

Would you still choose the same location?

I would.

I would.

As much as I would like to choose one place and one place only, I think my place would really be on the bridge of my own ship. I would see all of the worlds, and maybe stay for a while on each.

Owning a ship and scooting about the Star Wars universe would be sweet though.

For starters, you can always hitch-hike on someone else's ship and see many planets this way until you make it big.

Playing devil's advocate...and just working the initial thought of the game...I fully appreciate the ideal of the ship traveling from place to place, but if "you" were transported to the Star Wars universe what would you have to offer to own a ship, manage a ship, fly a ship, etc.?

And this is not shooting down a dream or a thought, the idea of traveling all over and seeing it all is one we would all be on board with...but it is a cheat for the game so I gotta ask lol.

I am a extreme example of a tech with engineering, extensive logistic/personnel/and related experience, as well as the 21yrs of military...and I am not sure if any of my skills would mean anything in that universe...I am sure some would convert over.

If I were in the "on a ship traveling everywhere" theme I would think that I may be able to sign on as a tech but I do not have a bucket of diamonds or a case of gold or anything else we consider valuable to carry over and buy my own ship.

I guess we could consider the potential of stealing a ship...but this would require help, could you trust this help to not turn on you and leave you on some random dock or out the air lock?

Again, not picking on your dream, it is a good one  :)

If the question were "would you rather be in this universe on Earth or in that universe on ", we would most likely would all choose to go.

But the idea is to name the place, as in a location on a moon/planet/asteroid field/etc. and not a ship, that appeals to you and that you would want to live...as a mundane regular human that you are at this moment in that exotic location.

;D

well lets see, I am a machinist, a decent sharp shooter, and an auto mechanic. None of which would help me at all in the Star Wars universe

well lets see, I am a machinist, a decent sharp shooter, and an auto mechanic. None of which would help me at all in the Star Wars universe (not that those skills have done me any good here on earth), I figure that once you are there you need to survive, which means Credits and a job. I would love Endor or Kashyk (I know I spelled it wrong) but with the lack of employment opportunities in any of my fields of expertise in those location I would not be well suited to those environments. on a ship however there is need for a machinery repairman, which is a machinist who makes ship parts, But obviously that doesn't "fly" here. so I would probably settle near one of the major shipyards, [url]http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Fondor_Shipyards,[/url] ([url]http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Fondor_Shipyards,[/url]) so on the planet of Fondor.

Do you step through or wait for another choice?

 ;)

That's Coruscant... Vos Gesal Street... where Zam Wessel's airspeeder crashed in AOTC

Step through.  ;D

Nar Shadda might be pretty sweety its like Vegas.....yah know when the Mob still ran it. LOL

yeah, see I've seen the name around but I know next to nothing about that one, except that the Old Sith Empire had an academy there. that is literally the extent of my knowledge of Nar Shadda. anyone care to do a quick overview, like a wokieepedia digest or something?

You know, I'm going to add another planet to my list of favorite locations in Star Wars. Hoth.

Yes, I know it's a frozen wasteland of death and snow, but I want to reiterate this with how they portray it in SWTOR. It's freakin' gorgeous. It's just so....beautiful. There's something about that icey, vaste wasteland that makes it stand out.

A couple I know moved to Las Vegas several years ago, and the husband had his own construction company--it was a small operation, basically him and a couple of guys, but he was the boss. On the very first job he got, he showed up on the first day and within an hour was approached by two well-dressed gentlemen who began asking questions about who he was and general information about his company. Initially he thought they worked for the city, but after about 20 minutes of conversation they told him, "You need to come with us." They took him to one of the well-known hotel/casinos (he didn't say which one, I didn't ask) and escorted him to an office on one of the top floors where he had a meeting with a mid-level "boss" who made it very clear that he had to get "permission" to start and operate a business in Las Vegas. When the "boss" found out how small his operation was he eased off, but told him certain contracts would never be awarded to his company, and that he would occasionally be instructed to turn down certain other jobs. He said they were very professional and treated him well, but that there were a couple of moments when he seriously thought they were going to throw him out of the window. He also said that once they determined he knew his business and saw the quality of his work that they actually sent some work his way--jobs he would not have gotten otherwise--and that their "cut" on those jobs was far less than he imagined it would be. All things considered, he said they were actually very easy to work with as long as you followed their rules (i.e., don't take money out of our pockets or cause us any problems) and actually helped him expand his business...to a point.
