I haven't kept up much with the EU since I read my first KJA trilogy. (Shudder) Could someone tell me what information there is on the Chiss? All I know is that Thrawn is one of them.

Read the books and some online pages.
NJO.com is a good source.

Your link sent me to a page about New Jersey.

Ooops.
It should be 'njoe.com'
Forgot the e.
Sorry about that.

Read the Hand of Thrawn duology, by Timothy Zahn. The two books are Spectre of the Past and Vision of the Future. Both are rather excellent.

The Chiss also make an appearance in the New Jedi Order, but I can't remember which book. It's more of a cameo than anything else.

Damnit, it's times like this that make me wish I was a supermod...

Yeah, you're just feeling snarmy because you're a newbie relative to me

Well, they (obviously) have blue skin and I believe they managed to defeat an imperial fleet that was sent to conquer them (that's how Thrawn got into the imperial navy, they were impressed by his tactics).

Not quite. According to Admiral Voss Parck (the captain who was sent to capture Thrawn) Thrawn had his men tied up on the surface of the planet for weeks before they were able to capture him.

What Thrawn did manage to do was to effectively defeat an Old Republic taskforce sent to destroy the Outbound Flight. Then, after Kinman Doriana informed him about the Outbound Flight, he also managed to destroy that.

Of course, I've researched this topic heavily because the first part of my fanfic's plot revolves around it...

I concede then.
