One of the things we like about the lead up to the Star Wars: The Old Republic launch is BioWare's series of timeline videos that explains the political and military background of the upcoming MMO. The fifth holorecord from the Jedi Archive is The Battle of Bothawui which recounts a major Republic victory against the Sith. It also chronicles the last stand of a heroic group of Jedi knights and Republic troopers, who became martyrs in the struggle against the Sith Empire.
If you're following along with the lore of Star Wars: The Old Republic you'll want to watch "The Battle of Bothawui" on the game's official site.

I wish the recent animated SW movies used an artwork style like the picture shown above... Maybe Lucas will re-master the cartoons sometime to change the artwork?

I saw one guy on the TOR forums saying the Timeline video pronounced it wrong, when it was apparent that he'd simply be saying it wrong for years. The video says it like they did in Return of the Jedi. It's "Bah" not "Boh", it doesn't rhyme with Both. That applies to both Bothan and Bothawui. :P

The holorecord's are my favorite. I hope they have them in game.
