Raid on Polis Massa

The Battle of Polis Massa Base was a minor skirmish between the Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance on a minning colony called Polis Massa Base that was oberated by rebels in the early days of the Galactic Civil War.

The Empire had discovered that a few rebels were able to escape the holding facility on the Death Star with vital information on imperial plans during an attempted prison break. Darth Vader decided to send his elite fighting batalion, the 501st Legion, to retrieve the data before the rebels decoded the plans.

Once the Legion arived on the planet they fought their way through the base in a frantic attempt to stop the rebels on Polis Massa. Wasting no time, the elite group recovered the holocron that contained the Empire's plans and removed the data from the holocron. While on the base the Legion learned that the rebel databanks contain imperial codes the the rebels were using to listen to the Empire's transmitions. Unable to let this happen the stormtroopers of the 501st fought their way deep into the rebel base and destroyed their databanks. In the end the Legion was once again victorious and their reputation grew even more legendary.
