This afternoon's Star Wars: The Old Republic panel at PAX Prime brought details on one of the game's remaining features that hasn't seen much light: World PvP!

Highlights:
-
Many different neutral planets that players can fight over, with territory control.
-
There will be bases, turrets, and other objectives that players can control on these planets (Ilum is one example planet).
-
Can call in bombing runs on the enemy base once planetary defenses are down.
-
Valor (and other) rewards for players who participate. 'Mercenary' commendations can be earned via World PvP to purchase the best PvP gear.
Visit the official Star Wars: The Old Republic website for additional information on the game. We'll bring you a full write-up on the panel later in the week!
