Star Wars: The Old Republic trailer takes on a mad king on Alderaan

The latest Star Wars: The Old Republic trailer shows a mission to depose a mad king on Alderaan. There are two major indications that the monarch's lost his marbles. A member of his own family has enlisted the group's help to take him off the throne, and he's wearing a very, very silly hat. To defeat him the four player team must launch a strategically foolish but awesome full frontal assault on his castle.
