  • True Tales of the Ancient Republic
rdfs:comment
  • True Tales of the Ancient Republic was conceived as an in-universe series that was intended to be included in 2012's The Essential Guide to Warfare. Jason Fry, the author of the book, intended to write this section to portray the Hutts as as monstrous as possible instead of depicting them as comic relief. The opening crawl and the overall nature of the section also included meta elements that were meant to affectionately parody Star Wars itself and a certain other science fiction series. Although both Fry and Erich Schoeneweiss agreed that it was a fun section and that the Hutts needed to have their vile natures emphasized, it was cut to shorten the manuscript and reduce the number of sidebars in the book.
