The Verge (as well as Wired) have just put out an article ( The Verge is with trailer attached) dealing with a new Star Wars mobile RPG, Star Wars: Uprising which will supposedly connect the sequel trilogy to the original trilogy.
Upon watching the trailer, it seems like continuation of the saga will not detail the fall of the Empire with crushing military defeats right off, but with the Empire covering up the Emperor’s death with propaganda, having the Empire held up by proverbial paper walls, until the walls are smashed through. This seems promising and well hopefully give this new era of Star Wars storytelling a good jolt.

Len Cline has been a fan of Star Wars since he saw a pirated “A New Hope” with a TV dinner when he was around 3 (He only remembers the Tantive 4 battle), he was in his “Primary Star Wars Introduction Age” (PSWIA for short) (aka. 7 years) when “Revenge of the Sith” came out. Len fell out of the active Star Wars fandom for a few years and explored the majority of science fiction eras (except for the 90’s , which is a big deal (Except for Star Trek) until he was brought back through the Star Wars podcasting community. Len loves to read science fiction (Asimov being his favourite writer) and also enjoys the classics (Dostoyevsky anyone?). He loves all things philosophy (Cogito ergo sum!), politics (De Toqueville and Machiavelli!), and poetry (Mathew Arnold and T.S. Eliot for the win!). He is also an anglophile. Len’s worldview is colored by many things in his life: He’s a devout Catholic and holds his beliefs high, as well as believing that morality and personal responsibility are paramount. Len hopes to move to Europe to attend college for philosophy and/or other social sciences. He then aims to put his studies to good use for the world (hopefully just like Luke Skywalker!).
