Alliance Fleet

"The Rebel Alliance is too well equipped. They're more dangerous than you realize."

- General Cassio Tagge

The Alliance Fleet, also called the Rebel fleet, was a group of various starships used by the Rebel Alliance in their struggle against the Galactic Empire.

Evacuating Yavin
Following the Battle of Yavin, Admiral Gial Ackbar and the Rebel fleet arrived at Yavin 4 to begin evacuating their base. Afterwards, the Rebel fleet orbited the remote world of Orto Plutonia while waiting for a suitable base of operations to be established, sending rebel troopers to the planet below for training exercises. The mathematical genius Drusil Bephorin correctly predicted that the Rebel fleet would be located there, and was later rescued from her Imperial captivity by Luke Skywalker himself. Following the rebel attack on Cymoon 1, Princess Leia and her team rendezvoused with the fleet to meet Ackbar and Mon Mothma.

Battle of Hoth
During the Battle of Hoth, many transports from the Alliance Fleet were used to evacuate personnel and equipment from Echo Base. Although the battle was a loss for the Rebellion, a significant portion of the Rebels managed to flee Hoth.

Assembling near Sullust
After learning the location of the second Death Star, the Alliance Fleet gathered over the planet Sullust prior to the attack. Chewbacca, R2-D2, C-3PO, Princess Leia and Lando Calrissian joined the fleet here after rescuing Han Solo from Tatooine, where they were soon joined by Luke Skywalker after he returned from Dagobah.

Battle of Endor
Upon arriving at the Forest moon of Endor the larger capital ships engaged the Imperial Fleet in the Battle of Endor. At least two Mon Calamari star cruisers were destroyed by the second Death Star's operational superlaser, but the other ships were able to pull into close range of the Imperial fleet to attack. Despite heavy losses they were able to defeat the forces massed at Endor.
