At least he's got Leia on his side, maybe she can help with Padme. What's Luke sensing, the problem with his parents or something worse?

Well, now everyone knows Anakin was Darth Vader. I hope the Empire doesn't decide to investigate where the transmission was being sent to/from on Naboo... at least if they do, I hope Piett is the one who investigates it WITHOUT the Emperor's knowledge.
But as before, I'm still wondering if things are going to go better for the Empire on Hoth this time around without Ozzel's mistake.
And what Padme is going to do on Dagobah -- or will she be too late and Luke will already have left?

I see they're both going to end up together on Dagobah with Luke, and in front of Yoda. Interesting also how Luke and Yoda are both right about Anakin but won't allow the other's point. I'm wondering how you're going to have that play out and what all the characters are going to do to get there.
And then the probe droid's been discovered on Hoth; at least this time no one got attacked by a snow monster...

Looks like Darth Ferret isn't going to get the prize the Emperor promised him, since Luke is nowhere near Hoth to be captured, even if Piett captures Leia. I'm wondering if you're going to get Leia captured this time ... and what happens to Han if so.
Good to see Padme at least thinking through her knee-jerk reaction.

Good for Obi-Wan! I had almost forgotten he was still around. Funny he thinks Leia is like her Dad, and cute.

Oh, no, I suddenly have the horrible feeling that old Obi-Wan is going to finally become "more powerful than she can ever imagine." Which brings to mind that she might actually get captured ... still wonder what's going to happen with Han. Are you putting him into the carbonite a bit early?

This is getting worrysome!

Good, they appear to be escaping Hoth just as they did in the movie. But without Vader to order them into the asteroid field, will they go in after them? And will they be followed by Boba Fett to Bespin, or will Darth Ferrett not employ Fett? I see you also managed to get Obi-Wan away from Han & Leia.
Padme seems as if she is on the way to reconciling her anger about the past with Anakin of the here and now. Hopefully that won't take them too much longer; I'm wondering how and where Anakin is going to face down the Emperor in this story.

You know, the way you've described it, with Leia using the Force to guide them through the asteroid field, makes more sense than the movie, with Han flying through by the seat of his pants. Not that us non-Force users can't do it, but after the movies kept emphasizing that Luke could do that sort of thing because he was "strong with the Force," it was counterproductive to have Han do it too. I guess they're going into the worm/eel despite Leia's misgivings regardless, though. I'm still wondering how you're going to alter things in this scenario.

Almost the same with Han/Leia as in the movie, but not quite; she seems more open to the relationship this time around, although you could change that once they get to Bespin (if they in fact go there).
I suppose Anakin, Padme, & Luke are going to go off after her once they realize what's happened (if they do) - or maybe not. The story seems like it could diverge entirely from the original very soon.
Wish you could post more often, but I suspect you may have caught up to yourself and be writing as you go along now?

Oh dear, trouble in both relationships now!

Oh, good, they made up! And Piett is plotting against Darth Ferrett! Excellent!!! This was a VERY positive chapter (which sort of makes me cringe in anticipation of the next as it might have things go quickly downhill for the heroes ...)

Things seem to be going pretty much the same with Leia, Han, & Lando. I'm betting Ferrett got there this time just like Vader did before. I'm wondering where this is going to veer off from the original - and waiting for Anakin & Co to show up and oppose the new Sith Lord. I'm betting he'll do more than cut off his hand!!

I see poor Han didn't escape being tortured this time around, either. And I suppose he'll go into the carbonite anyway because Boba will still want the bounty from Jabba. I just hope Anakin &/or Obi-Wan can get there in time (I suppose, though, that they might arrive together).
And I can't wait for Darth Ferret to meet the "crippled old man." LOL!!!!

Wow, this has taken a lot of twists, some I expected (like the breakup) some I did not (like what's going on with the kids) It's so interesting to see all of them in the ESB situation, only different! You never stop coming up with new situations and possibilities for these characters, it makes the real SW look boring in comparison! How are they ever going to get out of all of this? It's going to be fun to see what you do with it.
