Imperial vessel. Part of the Super Star Destroyer Blade’s task force.
History
Attempted to reinforce the Star Destroyer Predator, which was surprised by Republic Shield forces led by the Calamari Cruiser Rebel Fist near a red gas planet (#2) where the vessel was scheduled to receive replacement TIE starfighters from a supply convoy. However the vessel arrived after the convoy had been destroyed and the Predator had already withdrawn from the system. Led Imperial forces against the Rebel Fist, blocking the Calamari Cruiser from reaching its hyperspace point. Republic Shield and Imperial forces clashed, with both capital ships taking hits from each other’s task forces. Eventually Republic Shield forces bested the attacking Imperial forces, breaking their charge, and turning the offensive back onto the vessel. Imperial forces failed to protect the vessel, which was pounded into submission, allowing the Rebel Fist and its forces to continue on their journey. Destroyed by Republic Shield forces. (IBG507)
