Well its pretty much official:

JKEG (Jedi Knight Editing Group) and Team Carida Addon Development Team are merging to form a superb editing group.

Two addons are currently in the works:

JKEG's primo single player pack which puts you in the perspective of a 'for hire' killer out for that wimp Kyle Katarn's blood...

I'll let EV (JKEG coordinator) tell you all more on that one :D

and

Team Carida's Novella Saga: Carida: Sword of the Empire.

Carida: Sword of the Empire (aka CSOE) takes place in and around the Imperial held planet of Carida, the Empire's major training center for ground forces.

This pack is based upon, and takes place around, the time the events outlined in the wonderful books the Jedi Academy Trilogy take place.

At the start of the mission, word has leaked to the New Republic that the Caridan embassador, not content with simply poisoning Mon Mothma, has taken it into his head to abduct the infant Anakin Solo-Skywalker, the powerfully force-sensitive son of Han Solo and Leia Organa-Solo, sister to the Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, and second in command of the New Republic Government.

A Correlian spy, who infiltrated the planet shortly after primary negotiations with Caridan officials opened, transmitted this information at great personal cost: his transmission was detected. The transmission was heavily enough encoded that the Caridan's have yet to break it, so they are holding him for 'interrogation'.


At the start of the saga, You are one of Luke Skywalkers students. You are a human-seeming warrior from a race of genetically near-perfect beings, and a former force-sensitive mind-slave of the Emperor. At his sisters request, Luke has sent you to assist..a task you gladly volunteered for.

You will join an elite strike team to assault the Imperial Stardock above the planet Carida, cut off their communications, then infiltrate the planet itself to rescue the republic spy and, it is hoped, throw a hydrospanner into the Caridan plans to kidnap Anakin Solo-Skywalker.


Be forewarned...this will be a very large download when ready, but will definately be worth it.

The storyline will follow the novels as closely as possible..leading to some very interesting surprises in the later episodes..I wont give away all our secrets..but lets just say that you will get to visit Maw Station, Kessel, and perhaps some other surprises.

Current estimated release for CSOE is around December of this year, sooner if we get some more good team members.

If you are interested in joining the new JKEG Alliance(team carida and JKEG), contact EV or myself via email or ICQ for details on our requirements/standards for joining.


Hasta!
