i seen mara jade outside of the imp theme park on naboo. han knows dash rendar from when they both where in the imp acadamy training to be tie fighter pilots. dash was a year or 2 behind han. (who says han cant fly a fighter) dash left the empire after han did, when his famaly got killed off by crashing their cargo ship into one of the empiror's buldings. he became a smuggler like han in a yt2400 with a le repair droid for a co pilot. he did try to pertect echo base from the at-ats. dash gets killed off just before return of the jedi. (or does he)

I think at this time Katarn is just starting to find out about his jedi heritage.... chances are hes at the village grinding like crazy.

No, he doesnt find his jedi skills / the jedi valley till long after ROTJ.
Read my info - hes a secret agent / spy / infiltrator for the rebels now.

First off timeline is off. 
You have him born 27 years before Yavin and then state he's 18 when he goes into the Empire. Second thing Zahn's novel was not the first EU novels. The FIRST was Splinter of the Mind's Eye which came out shortly after A New Hope.around 1980 then was followed by Adventures of Han Solo and Adventures of Lando Calrissian.

As for seeing Katarn in game IF we went by the timeline he won't leave the Empire until shortly prior to Empire Strikes Back. Upon reciveing a medal Jan gives him proof the Empire was responsible for the death of his father and he goes freelance working for Mon Mothma on occasions such as destroying the Dark Trooper Project.
Other than a want to keep some form of continuity I'd love to see Kyle introduced in game.

Kyle Katarn is my ABSOLUTE favourite char in EU. He made much of the most vital stuff in EU, but the number of people who know about him is in factquite low!

Hold on kyle was the one who stole the first death star plans so how could he still be in the empire now if he worked for the rebels?.

I told you the timeline wasnt correct - it was speculation, and Zahns novel is not the first EU novel - i never said so. They are the only Katarn novels though. I never said they were the first ones.
He did NOT JOIN THE EMPIRE BEFORE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK.
He stole the death star plans - before ANH.
The bothans stole the second deathstars plans.
Please - i know what im talking about - he would be working for the rebels.
I never said they were the first novels. Im not mad.
