    Are you sure that's complete? I could have sworn that there was a softcover version of the Rebel Sourcebook...

    I've never seen one. I only know about the Imperial SB soft cover.

    There were 3 softcover books: Imperial Tech, Rebel Tech, and Tatooine Tech.

    They were more photobooks and backstory info, with no real stats or game mechanics.

    Fine if you needed photos, and they did have siloettes of the lightsabers, but not really all that useful.

    Uh, are you sure about that -- I've never ever seen them listed anywhere and don't recall ever seeing them at the hobby store...

    I'm very sure. I have 2 copies of them.

    They aren't really part of the WEG line, but they are the only softcover rebel or imperial source books I know of.

    If they aren't WEG then what are they?

    Only WEG and WOTC have ever had the rights to licensed SW RPG products that I am aware of...

    Photo books and backstory info.

    There are detailed photos of guns, ships, rooms, other props, and "historical" references within the SW universe.

    Would this:
    [image=http://cargobay.starwars.com/books/nonfiction/reference/c_tech_tat.jpg]

    be of what you speak? :)

    If so, not an RPG addendum -- just a similar theme to the Essential Guides and/or Incredible Cross-Sections I believe.

    Good, hard to find stuff nonetheless though! :)

    They were collected together and reprinted as the Star Wars Technical Journal hardcover.

    There was definitely an Imperial Sourcebook TPB version.

    Right, right -- as there was a Rebel Alliance Soucebook softcover and a collection of the Heir to the Empire Sourcebook, Dark Force Rising Sourcebook and The Last Command Sourcebook in a The Thrawn Trilogy Sourcebook softcover...

    ... but those were RPG materials. These things are magazines (which I now want to buy!) :)

    Hmmm, the Movie Trilogy Special Edition Sourcebook, you mean? I think there was only a hardcover version of that...

    No, they reprinted the 3 starlog books with extra special edition pages added. Mainly they updated the ads and included a foldout/pullout page with some item from SE detailed on it.

    Was there a Rebel Alliance SB soft cover? I didn't think they made one.

    Also, are there any other ommissions or High Admiral Deck's List other than the softcover Rebel Alliance Sourcebook?

    Okay, so it's a first edition book.

    Yes, that is not listed on Deck's page.

    I've been trying to put together a complete list myself and decided to list the books in order of the WEG number and found a few holes. Can anyone tell me which books have the following WEG numbers (if there are any with these numbers)?

    I would appreciate title, authors, edition and if possible ISBN and date

    40012 through 40015
    I've seen Starfall listed as 40016 and 40026. Are they both right?
    40031 and 40032
    40047
    40054 has now been confirmed as softcover Rebel Alliance Sourcebook. What was the cover price?
    40078 and 40079
    40081
    40087
    40096
    40097
    40099
    40101
    40104 through 40106
    40110
    40115
    40117
    40140
    40142
    40144 through 40146
    40149
    40156 and 40157
    40159 through 40164

    40202
    40204 and 40205
    40208
    40213 and 40214
    40216 through 40220
