Trust me we agree. Kucsidave and I have a soft spot for those xenophobes

Honestly if you completely cut out the side-arc with Luke and the Fallanasi the Black Fleet Crisis trilogy was rather well-done. A competent villain that wasn't the Empire, and it handled the political intrigues/bloat of bureaucracy side a whole lot better than the prequels.

Yes, they were evil we hadn't seen yet in SW. The Xenophobia on the scale of mass extermination and cleansing. The tech they adapted as well as the fact they had no Force users, were not Imps or warlords but were actually WORSE. Yeah I liked them, when the Vong came out I felt they were just copies of the Yevetha with organic tech(though i grew to like some of them)

I always just skip the Luke side story-the lando one is interesting but doesn't have ANYTHING to do with the plot so i usually read it separately.

I think that all those side-stories made the books lose focus and wrecked the pacing. They should have handled those in different books with the Yevethans getting their very own story. Maybe expanding it a little more to get to know them even more.

I always hoped for that...then they killed them offscreen-though I have no doubt they took a LOT of Vong with them as according to the sources they had nearly 10,000 Thrustships and some Imperial Designs above N'zoth. That must have been an insane battle.

Yeah. that could have been an epic battle. Two xenophobe race clashing in a fight to the death. I think it would have been interesting zo even write it from the Yevethan's POV to feel their desperation, and to see them as their very ideology crumbled as they lost battle after battle in the Koornach cluster. A cornered animal is even more dangerous than the one in the open. Then they really fight with all their might.
An epic showdown like that really should have get more light.
Also it would have gave a chance to look into the yevethan forces and characters even more.

The important thing about Thrustships is they're actually T-Type or Aramadia-class Thrustships, which implies "Thrustship" is a general classification ala Star Destroyers which extends beyond just Aramadias, and nobody ever bothered to explore that.

we know that they had at least the Victory-class, the Imperial-class, and the Immobilizer 418 which contradicts the info they haven't captured anything smaller than a victory. But they used one to capture Han Solo, so the must have them...

I mean what other groups would you guys like to see?
I want to see a GC where Thrawn leads the empire to conquer the unknown regions too pacify it. He could fight Warlord Esva and  the that one imperial Moff who Thrawn had to hunt?

Other then that I would like Zero command and Penttoch: this is what I would have as a roster is a little more imperial but has some diversity   
Ships: Allegiance ISD I ISD II tector SD Prosecutor Sd
VSD I VSD II Gladiator Dreadnaught
Aclimator vindicator Cr90
Tie Avenger tie defender skipray blast boats
Tie Inceptors
Land Units:
ATAT A9 fortress AT-ET
2-M Tie Crawler Tie Mauler AT ST
Stormtroopers, specialists, plex Soldiers, Nova Troopers?
Scout troopers
