Imperial vessel, disguised as part of a pirate force. Part of the Star Destroyer Deathbringer’s task force.
History
Directly engaged the Calamari Cruiser Ad Astra, which had been pulled out of hyperspace prematurely a fair distance from the supply platform Terminus by the Interdictor Event Horizon. The Event Horizon led Imperial forces from a distance in an attack on the Ad Astra while the vessel continued to engage the Calamari Cruiser directly. The Terminus station’s defences launched, but they were insufficient to repel the Imperial forces, and were too far away to reach the Ad Astra in time to be of much assistance. The Ad Astra and the vessel traded blows, seriously diminishing the Calamari Cruiser’s shield strength at the expense of the vessel’s entire shield systems. Republic Shield reinforcements arrived to defend the Ad Astra, engaging the Interdictor Event Horizon’s attack forces, while the Ad Astra concentrated firepower on the vessel, damaging it beyond repair. Destroyed by Republic Shield forces (RgF306)
