Star Wars Insider issues #145-146 have some pretty substantial excerpts from the 1976 story conferences of Lucas talking with Alan Dean Foster about SOTME. Apparently Luke was going to kill Vader in the original “low-budget sequel” ending, and Leia ended up pretty badly scarred from the duel. (Splinter of the Mind’s Eye, lightsaber beam in the body’s eye, I’d guess…)
