Hey folks,
It may come to no surprise for the discord folks, but I'm a fan of the (now amazon prime) The Expanse.
Now, star wars has a similar situation with the FWA-membership enjoying rich world of Osarian (earth) and the impoverished former mining world of Rhommamool (mars). Each decade their orbit comes so close that they're in each other's missile-range, usually resulting in a war that lasts for as long as the planets are this close to one another (couple of months).
Add an Ossein spacestation to the mix that's mining valuable ores from asteroids (intended for Osarian and Rhommamool, with ore traded for foodstuffs, fresh water stuff like that) and you basically have the setting for the Expanse.
But instead of some OP alien dna I want to introduce the Sith. They'd go to Rhommamool to help them prepare better for when the planets are close again and use pirates to raid the ore transports intended for Osarian (both further impoverishing the Ossein space station).
BASICALLY, I'm hoping I'm not the only one interested in a story on such a small scale compared to the usual grabbing planets and conquering the map. If you'd like to write this story with then please let me know and if there's enough people I'll be starting this off with a narrative-starting mission pack to introduce NPCs and the Ossein station.
