Culroon III/Legends
Culroon III was a planet in the Culroon system, located in Wild Space.
History
The planet had a long history of extreme violence and constant civil war, and was largely ignored by the Old Republic. Due to their constant warring, the Culroon natives never developed space travel, but would trade for technological devices.
When the Empire decided to construct a garrison on Culroon III, the Imperial General Irrv agreed to stage a ceremonial surrender of the Culroon people by their leader, Kloff. When it turned out to be an ambush by the Culroon, the Imperial staff was rescued by an AT-AT commanded by Lieutenant Maximilian Veers.
Behind the scenes
The PC game Star Wars: Rebellion mistakenly places Culroon III in the Kanchen sector, which is actually located in the Core Worlds.
Star Wars: Rebellion: Prima's Official Strategy Guide misspells the planet as "Culoon III." The stat card for Maximilian Veers in the Star Wars Miniatures game (Dark Times: 22/40) misspells the planet "Culrron III".
