    Lando had the Falcon from 5 BBY, so, presumably that would need to be shuffled forward... I feel as if the Lando novels end up shuffled forward to pre-Solo by the references, and of course Solo book 1 to before Solo by necessity.

    Working on it!

    Yeah, it's all a little tricky, but easier than I was expecting.
    The Kessel Run is basically the same 'solution' to Lucas misusing actual scientific units that the EU gave, with the Maw still right there. The main 'beats' of the stories - Imperial service, saving Chewbacca, the relationship with Lando, etc. - are basically the same.

    The numbered Inquisitors form their own group, indeed.

    Two, in my eyes. Two Sith, two empires, two Executors, two Death Stars, two Viziers, two Intel groups, two loyalty groups.

    Palpatine likes two.

    Heir to the Empire page 224 confirms that Han and Lando did a Kessel run together before Han won the Falcon from him.

    That’s curious.

    Especially when the "official" Kessel Run in the Han Solo Trilogy didn't include Lando (the dumping of the spice thanks to being ratted out by Moruth Doole).

    Han had owned the Falcon for two years by that point.

    It's true though that the Han Solo trilogy, during the time when Lando owns the Falcon (The Hutt Gambit), never shows Lando doing Kessel Runs.

    Well Solo covers a Kessel Run they did together, arguably.

    It’s almost as if the Han Solo book 2 and Lando’s adventures takes place before Solo, and Chewie and Han and Lando are playing a massive con on Crimson Dawn.

    I'll need to check my timeline notes but I'm liking it. =D=

    I wouldn't even mind something where Lando and Han keep losing the Falcon to each other. I mean, it sort of happens in the OT, right?

    Regarding @Darth Invictus 's question about Yoda fighting the Dark Jedi in the Solving EU Inconsistencies thread, I wonder if after that encounter, Yoda suggests to Palpatine that they may need a protocol to deal with rogue Jedi commanders to avoid a repeat.

    Palpatine smiles and says, "That's a good idea, Master Yoda," with Yoda not knowing about the Order 66 protocol/chip. Palpatine could even use the Dark Jedi uprising on Bpfasshi as further evidence of "Jedi treachery" when establishing the Empire.

    The first game predates the episodes where the Ghost picks up Mon Mothma and she rallies the Alliance at Dantooine.

    The second is useful if only to explain where Vader is during the Thrawn arcs of Rebels. I would place it at any point during those seasons, but probably after Thrawn Alliances.

    In Dark Empire, Salla Zend also mentions that she and Lando did a Kessel Run on the Falcon.

    In terms of the 'main beats' of the EU and Solo stories, there's also "orphan Han escaping from criminal using a gang of kids."

    Actually, didn't the Crispin trilogy also have Han inventing a new last name for himself, too - twice, actually? Once as a kid with Shrike, and then again when he enlists with the Empire?

    He enlists under what he believes is his real name - Han Solo - in the Crispin trilogy (having found out from Dewlanna the name Solo, + remembering the name Han from childhood before ending up on the street and being picked up by Shrike.)

    He uses a lot of aliases, but they tend to be both names - Vykk Drago, Jenos Idanian, etc.

    Missed opportunities, not using those aliases in the movie.
