[QUOTE="Agatheron, post: 6154351, member: 6694086"] If anything I'd say the book really does presume much of what's in the expanded universe as its overall foundation. The difficulty is, in the book it doesn't specifically say "this is EU and this is not" especially when describing the Galaxy. However, there's lots of material here that is certainly not present in the films in terms of the various worlds and sections of the galaxy. There is reasonably detailed map of the galaxy that includes places like the Corporate Sector, Hutt Space. It shows the area of space that (will) be controlled by the Imperial Remnant around 40 ABY. It shows the various major and minor trade routes through the galaxy as well. In terms of aircraft/spacecraft, there's a good mix of "Canon" and "EU" material. The trast heavy speeder truck, for example is clearly an EU item that is covered in Wookiepedia and has only ever been in RPG supplements. Spacecraft wise, the Cloakshape Fighter, the Jumpmaster 5000 Long-range Scout, Skipray Blastboat are just a few that are EU. In fact, I'd almost say in the Starship section, it's at least 50/50 Canon and EU in terms of equipment. The nice thing is, the stats are flexible enough that if you wanted to, extrapolating ships that aren't in the book would not be hard. I think the note in regard to the Expanded Universe on page 295 is more in relation to how much or how little GMs might want to stick with the Star Wars canon, or how "off script" they want to go. The material in EoTE certainly presumes the EU, and so far nothing I've come across in the book explicitly contradicts anything that I've cross-referenced in Wookiepedia. [/QUOTE]
