I still need to find out what happened to the Yuzahha vong. I didn't spell that right, but i'm sure you guys know what I'm talking about.

I'm not too the vong yet but i am very close in the book lines, so far I have read....
The Truce at Bakura The Courtship of Princess Leia THE THRAWN TRILOGY: # Heir to the Empire # Dark Force Rising # The Last Command The Crystal Star THE JEDI ACADEMY TRILOGY: - Line I am reading now # Jedi Search THE BLACK FLEET CRISIS TRILOGY: # Before the Storm # Shield of Lies # Tyrant's Test
I'm staying away from anything during the movies just stuff after. Those are in order too of time line I haven't read them in that order though.

I don't know why, but I don't like the Yuuzhan Vong. I mean...heh, we aren't supposed to *like* them, but I don't like them as the enemy. I don't know why, but they just don't "do it" for me. That might be why I like the books that don't involve them so much more.

Yeah... Yuuzhan Vong... totally changes the entire star wars universe.
I think I've missed the Rogue squadron X-wing series and a few others but I've read them all from Truce at Bakura (right after ROTJ) till.... destiny's way (Yuuzhan vong)

Yeah, exactly, they do totally change it. And I don't think in a good way. Like the Empire changed it in a good way. Even if you hate the Empire, you love to hate them. The Yuuzhan Vong aren't like that cool bad guy you love to hate, or maybe want to be like. Instead they are like that gross jackass who won't leave you alone and nothing you do makes them go away. >.<
I guess that's why I didn't finish the X-Wing series. I enjoy the pre-Vong books so much more, without their crusty technology and stupid immune to the force crap.

I'll always go for the x-wing. It is my favorite ship in all of Star Wars, next to the Falcon of course. I would be all crazy fanboy ecstatic to meet Han Solo, and then the next minute try to kill him and take the Falcon. And then get shot by Han's DL-44 and my arms ripped off by Chewbacca. But it would be so worth it for a shot at the Millennium Falcon, the fastest hunk o' junk in the galaxy!!!

I pick the x-wing over the Falcon anyday.
It looks like a bucket of bolts.
As for X-wing vs E-wing... yeah I pick it over the e wing.
But isn't the e-wing better than the x-wing?
Its what I got when I read about the two ships.

It's a direct successor, isn't it? So yeah, it's probably better, but I'd still pick the x-wing. Style baby. Style. lol And of course the Falcon is a bucket of bolts. That's part of her appeal!
