Battle of Celanon

The Battle of Celanon was a conflict between the Galactic Empire and New Republic in 13 ABY at Celanon. Under the command of Admiral Gilad Pellaeon, the Imperial forces had been pushed back in an attempt to contain an invasion of Imperial space. During the battle, Pellaeon lost his command ship, the Super Star Destroyer Reaper.

Background
The New Republic invaded Imperial space through the Antemeridian sector, commanded by Moff Gentelles. The Moffs of the Imperial Remnant, fearing the shift of power in the region, ordered Admiral Gilad Pellaeon to move his forces across the Hydian Way. Torn away from his campaign against the planet Adumar, Pellaeon brought his forces into the fight against the New Republic. The losses he inflicted on the New Republic were substantial, but Pellaeon was pushed back.

The battle
At Celanon, he once again engaged New Republic forces. He was not able to secure a victory, however, and lost his command ship, the Super Star Destroyer Reaper.

Aftermath
In the wake of Celanon, the New Republic refrained from pushing its advantage and halted the invasion.
