and also he wasn't even in Ep 6 because he was killed in between 5-6 in the War against Prince Xizor in a book that I didn't read but it said on the back.
He deos die, but its in a book after ROTJ, so you must be mistaken, and we don't know what happened to Chewie between ROTS and ANH. Obviously he met Han Solo somewhere along the way and became a smuggler with him.

Yeah, my theroy is that he met han, and they became smugglers, or Chewwie ows han a life debt beacuse he saved his lfe some time. But chewie does die, hes dead around the time of Hans kids become jedi, so I hear, not to sure on that though, could some one correct me?

Actually, in one of the two Han Solo trilogy books, (I believe it's Hutt's Gambit) they tell you how Han Solo was drummed out of the Imperial navy for saving Chewbacca from a spice mine or some such approximate. So you can imagine all them brave wookiees ended up losing the battle for their homeplanet and were enslaved by an oppressive human regime... again. And the two do do some smuggling for quite some time.
They don't have to lose the battle per se; the war was over. They were probably enslaved by the new Empire, which posed a bigger threat than either side in the Clone Wars.

That's a more straightforward way of saying it, really. But since the Republic became the Empire under Sidious, and the Separatist Army was secretly under Sidious, either way they lost that battle. So I didn't make much of a distinction. But yes, they may have won the fight, but lost the war.
But with that simplification, there really wasn't a "war" then; it was all two sides of the same Palpatine coin.
To be accurate, I would mention that it's very probable they repelled the invasion, but were enslaved because of the Empire. You are correct though, that it is irrelevant to his fate.
As mentioned, it's almost certain that he met Han Solo, had a debt to him, and the two of them became smugglers and old buddies (where we see them in ANH).
