Burning Plains Bridge

OnALegendsArticle

The Burning Plains Bridge was a bridge located on the planet Mustafar. It was built by the Klegger Corporation long before the start of the Clone Wars to connect the Smoking Forest region to the Burning Plains.[1] The bridge was originally formed out of steel but years in the harsh Mustafarian environment had coated it with volcanic ash and rock so that it resembled a natural rock formation by the time of the Galactic Civil War.[3]

In 1 ABY,[4] a spacer visited the area and collected the Silencer pistol under the bridge.[5]

Behind the scenes

  4. ↑ The opening crawl of Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided dates the game to after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, and additionally, Serji-X Arrogantus, who died in Star Wars (1977) 10—the events of which The New Essential Chronology dates to 0 ABY—appears in the game. Therefore, at least a portion of Star Wars Galaxies must be set in that year. Furthermore, in the game Ruwan Tokai references the destruction of the Death Star as having occurred one year earlier, and Strongholds of Resistance also places the events of Galaxies' Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" in 1 ABY. Lastly, while Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" features the Battle of Hoth—dated to 3 ABY by The New Essential Chronology—the developers have stated that the portrayal of that battle in the game is intentionally anachronistic. Therefore, the events of Star Wars Galaxies must span from 0 ABY to around 1 ABY.
