Interestingly, Thrawn also suspects they do have a homeworld.Įven the Grysks' tactics are evocative of the Yuuzhan Vong. Grand Admiral Thrawn doubts this is true he rather believes they triumph through the use of unfamiliar weapons and maneuvers. It's claimed the Grysks overwhelm their enemies with sheer force of numbers (a common Yuuzhan Vong strategy). According to legend, they're a nomadic race with no home of their own. Where the Yuuzhan Vong were extragalactic invaders who cut a swathe through the Unknown Regions before attacking the rest of the galaxy, the Grysks hail from the Unknown Regions. Timothy Zahn's novel Thrawn: Alliances introduces a brand new alien race, the Grysks, who certainly fit a similar purpose as the Yuuzhan Vong in the new canon.
