In a move that is sure to spawn a lot of speculation and discussion, Jeff Hickman, known for his extensive work with Mythic Entertainment titles Dark Age of Camelot and more recently Warhammer Online, has traded in his fantasy sword for a sci-fi lightsaber and taken up a new job with BioWare as the new Executive Producer of Live Services for Star Wars: The Old Republic. According to Ask a Jedi, the news was announced at BioWare's recent Fan Site Summit. Hickman will assume some of the responsibilities vacated by Gordon Walton, who departed BioWare earlier this year.
