As we know, the Vong took Wayland during the Agents of Chaos duology - meaning that the remains of Mt. Tantiss were in their hands for the remainder of the NJO. Though it never came up again, what do you think the Vong found in the remains of the Emperor's treasure mountain?

It was to my understanding that the Mt was completely looted by Thrawn and then destroyed by Luke and company

There was signifgant amount of materile that survived c'boath's death explosion and detonatioon of mt. Tantiss. Examples of this are the camass document and the data cards it was with.

They were not part of Mount Wayland.

Actually, after the mountain exploded, the Noghri settled on Wayland and were pretty through in there efforts to remove all traces of it from the planet.
It's likely by the time the Vong hit the planet, there was little to nothing left of value.

Well your word "Thje" makes no sense either.
By assumtion, I would guess that PainRack meant the moutain on Wayland, i.e. Mount Tantiss....

It's a simple type of misprint; we don't need to thrown napalam on it in the traditional sd.net fashion.

It cropped up again in the Short story serial that appeared in Gamer and Insider.
I missed the issue that dealt with it specifically, but the overall plot was the Vong dug up a data card of Palpatine's that contained the DNA for a virus that would kill off Bacta. Then they (the heros) were trying to stop it from being released.

It doesn't matter what the Vong found on Wayland. The real question is what would they use? Remember they have a xenophobic hatred of mechanical technology, and I'm guessing even Spaarti cloning equipment is vastly inferior to anything they have.
And in the end it doesn't matter. They were defeated.

Well, some of them had to shove it down their throats. Nom Anor, after years of infiltration, though he still hated machines, was more than comfortable in using them.
The same problem also occured on Obroa-Skai; the Vong had to resist the urge to destroy the tech because of the tactical data it had on the Republic galaxy.

? Wouldn't they just pile the data card on their traditional pile of vile machinery to be destroyed?
