If you're a Star Wars Galaxies player, you'll find a nice gift waiting for you the next time you log in.
SOE has released the third in a line of recent seven-year-anniversary gifts for SWG players, and it's a schematic for some fun housing: a Wookiee treehouse. It's a single-use item, of course, but it will net you a pretty impressive new residence.
The Wookiee treehouse takes up two lots, gives you 200 storage, and makes quite a statement on the surrounding landscape. If you'd like to check it out more closely, you can find a list of materials and several screenshots on the official SWG forums.
[Updated to clarify that this is an anniversary gift, not a veteran reward!]

THAT is pretty cool! Nice addition for fun housing. Although I can see some complaints on it's awkwardness on certain planets (much like the Jabba's Barge).
I mean it's a cool little treehouse, but it's gonna look weird on planets like Tatooine and Lok.

This is not actually a reward for having played for three years- your account only needs to be 10 days old to receive this item.
Here's why the confusion: It is the "year three gift" as part of the "seven years of galaxies" celebration (the anniversary was last month) where they release a gift every couple of weeks, each commemorating one of the previous years.
They're less than halfway through the gift-giving, there will be eight gifts in all, although the tree house has so far been by far the best.

That isn't a very good screen shot. The tree house is pretty impressive on the outside. The inside is big, but not very elaborate. Still nice gift!

Let me get this right - that tree was placed on Tatooine?
Yet another example of why this game long ago should've given up the Star Wars name.
SWG used to be about immersing players in the New Hope era of Star Wars. Too many years ago since that was true.

Not sure if it can be placed on Tatooine or not, but that screen shot above is on Corellia, you can tell by the swirly clouds and the radar map says Corellia.
But I wouldn't be surprised if they did allow it on Tatooine, because we all know SOE will throw realism out the window when it comes to "fun & exciting".

How very starwarsy and iconic :/
Even if they make that game f2p it would still be overpriced.

Joyce Kilmer. 1886–1918
Trees
I THINK that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the sweet earth's flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.
End poem]
You see! the devs have committed.......something, only god can create a tree!!!

Instead of doing things like this, they should of redone something more important like a new UI, I would for sure come back then to check it out and see how I like it.
