    History

    Point defence for the Victory Star Destroyer Desperado as it underwent a resupply operation after taking damage from a previous battle with Republic Shield forces in the Meridian Cluster. The arrival of a Republic Shield strike force prompted the vessel to co-ordinate are defences to help protect the vulnerable Victory Star Destroyer. Was unable to provide adequate protection for the operation, with all supply craft with the exception of the Escort Carrier Nebula being destroyed in the battle. The Desperado was also lost in the battle, ensuing complete failure of the vessel’s objectives. During the battle it too suffered serious damage. Destroyed by Republic Shield forces. (RgF302)
