SWG: Five Year Anniversary

Happy Fifth Anniversary to Star Wars Galaxies!
It's been an amazing five years since gamers across the world began jumping online to adventure in a galaxy far, far away… and now it's time to celebrate!
To commemorate Star Wars Galaxies' fifth year anniversary, there will be events, parties, in-game gifts, and your chance to vote in the Create a Painting Contest!
Five Year Anniversary Gifts The Empire Strikes Back in-game painting and Novaless Soni-Optics Goggles
Citizens across the galaxy can receive two gifts when they log in during the anniversary celebration! Use the radial menu on the Emperor's Statue or Yoda's Fountain during the Empire Day event to receive two anniversary gifts.
The Five Year Painting is a replica of The Empire Strikes Back movie poster, sure to add a cool style to anyone's decor!
The Novaless Soni-Optics Goggles Mark V are one-of-a-kind. Originally created to assist with aiming long range rifles, the goggles were not widely manufactured due to problems that prevented any real combat use. These goggles are considered a novelty item as a result and are showed off for looks.

To receive your anniversary gifts, your character must be at least 10 days old.
Five Year Anniversary Event: Empire Day Hear Darth Vader and Princess Leia address the crowd!
Starting Tuesday, June 24, visit Theed and Coronet to see Darth Vader and Princess Leia descend upon the gathered crowd! Once an hour, Darth Vader and Princess Leia land in Theed and Coronet respectively to recognize members of the Empire and Rebellion for their dedicatation.

If you are chosen, show the proper respect to earn a unique badge and title.
Vendors offer special Empire and Rebel themed goodies to mark the occasion. Read this Friday Feature for more details on the Empire Day festivities.
