Oaths Beyond the War

The war offered two banners. The forest offered a third. Outside the Death Watch Bunker, a recruiter waited beneath the trees; on Yavin IV, another voice carried an invitation from Black Sun. Neither asked a traveller to forget the war. Both offered a different allegiance.

Choose your company

Allegiances beside the great powers

Independent Death Watch and Black Sun memberships have arrived alongside your Imperial, Rebel or neutral status. Their doors need not close on one another.

Join or leave Death Watch through the recruiters outside the Death Watch Bunker on Endor.
Find the Black Sun recruiter at the Mining Outpost on Yavin IV.
You may belong to both organizations. Joining does not change your Galactic Civil War allegiance, grant reputation or charge a membership fee.
The character sheet gains matching Imperial, Rebel, Death Watch and Black Sun standing rows, with membership labels for the two independent organizations.

A costly suit of promises

The recruiter's supply case

Inside the case lay no finished legend, only the pieces from which one could be made. The quartermaster named his price without blinking.

Death Watch members can buy Mandalorian armor crafting inputs from their recruiter for 1,000,000 credits per item.
The selection includes Binary Liquid, Protective Liquid Coating, Alum Minerals and ten Bounty Hunter armor input pieces.
Purchases require confirmation and space in your inventory. Payment uses cash first, then bank credits.
These are crafting inputs, not finished Mandalorian armor; jetpack-only components are not included.

A companion answers

Names restored, bonds repaired

At the laboratory, the creature stirred. This time the handler's call found more than a broken label: it found a living companion, ready to take its first step outside.

Repaired activation of newly added Bio-Engineer pet deeds that could not produce their intended creature.
Existing affected, unused deeds retain their creature identity and can be tried again after updating; recrafting is not required for this repair.
Added readable names for 116 pet deeds and 77 creature-name entries, preserving existing valid names.
The new companions no longer demand a Death Watch or Black Sun declaration merely to be summoned. Genuine Imperial and Rebel recruiter-pet restrictions remain.
Creature Handler skill, pet-level and capacity requirements still apply, as do normal outdoor and out-of-combat activation rules. This is not unrestricted taming of every wild creature.
Player-chosen pet names are preserved.

Before the next journey

Bring your charts up to date

Close every game client, open your current launcher and run Scan/Update before reconnecting. These changes need the new client files as well as the server update. If you still use an older launcher, follow the upgrade instructions in the previous field report.

The Death Watch NPC emblem is included for in-game verification. A separate emblem above member players is not part of this release. The new character-sheet layout and the repaired pet interactions still need player-side visual and gameplay confirmation; please report any remaining display or activation problem.
