Imperial station, disguised as a pirate base in a remote asteroid cluster in the Dotani Sector, not far from the Binaural Sector. Home base of the Star Destroyer Deathbringer’s task force.
History
Probed by undercover Republic Shield reconnaissance force. The Escort Carrier Nebula unwittingly led Republic Shield forces to the restricted Imperial space, after it retreated from the Republic Shield victory which saw the destruction of the Victory Star Destroyer Desperado. Scanned and identified by Republic Shield reconnaissance force, which was using an Imperial starfighter from the Desperado which was captured during the Victory Star Destroyer’s attack on a New Republic supply platform in the Meridian Sector. (RgF303)
The defensive presence of the Star Destroyer Deathbringer removed itself when an attack force consisting of Republic Shield and defecting Imperial forces led by the Star Destroyer Wyvern began to assault the base, with the major Imperial reinforcements having failed to bolster the station’s defences. Minor reinforcements led by the Interdictor Vampirous and backed up by the Frigate Tintor arrived to cover the Deathbringer’s retreat from the combat zone. Once the Deathbringer was safely away, the Vampirous engaged its interdiction field, preventing Republic Shield forces from pursuing the Star Destroyer, and forcing them to concentrate their forces against the station’s defences. The Vampirous and Tintor then co-ordinated defensive efforts of the base, while the Wyvern’s forces bombarded the station and the defending forces. The defensive forces failed, as the static defences and the station itself fell before the onslaught of the Wyvern’s forces. Destroyed by Republic Shield and defecting Imperial forces. (RgF311)
