Galactic Strongholds

Last Week SWTOR announced the Galactic Strongholds. I have taken the time to read over the information. This is part of the next expansion. Having player housing has been what many players have been asking for. Not everyone is going to be interested in this, but still its nice to have.

Here is some of the subscription benefits:

As you can tell from all of this is that there is an incentive to subscribe during this time.  Something to know is that not everything will be added in early access.  One thing that I am looking forward to is the legacy stronghold.  More information can be found here.
