Yag-prime

Yag-prime was an Empress-class space station orbiting the Givin homeworld Yag'Dhul.

In 6 ABY, it was controlled by tge forces of Warlord Zsinj, and supervised by a Twi'lek merchant named Valsil Torr. Zsinj used the station to store a large quantity of bacta which had been seized from a New Republic convoy, but the New Republic was notified by Qlaern Hirf of the Ashern. Rogue Squadron and Defender Wing soon arrived with a group of assault shuttles and freighters to take control of the station and recover the bacta in the Battle of Yag'Dhul.

A few months later, after the members of Rogue Squadron resigned to fight the Bacta War against Ysanne Isard, former Rogue Pash Cracken falsely reported the station destroyed. Wedge Antilles took control of the station, learning that Torr had been killed by a member of the Givin repair crew. Antilles soon handed over control of the station to Booster Terrik, who commanded it for the duration of the Bacta War. Antilles and Terrik refitted the station with hundreds of concussion missile and proton torpedo targeting sensors, but mounted the missile launchers on a fleet of freighters they had acquired. The station was also fitted with a gravity well projector and a powerful array of tractor beams. Shortly before the decisive Battle of Thyferra, Isard's spy Melina Carniss was allowed to learn that the Rogues were based on Yag-prime. As Antilles intended, Isard sent her Star Destroyers Lusankya and Virulence to destroy the station. When the Isard's ships arrived, Antilles's small fleet jumped to hyperspace toward Thyferra. Terrik then caught Lusankya in Yag-prime's tractor beams and activated the gravity well projector, then directed the station's targeting sensors at the Star Dreadnought. Captain Lakwii Varrscha of Virulence quickly intervened, moving her ship into the path of the tractor beams and allowing Lusankya to escape. Shortly afterward, Pash Cracken's Ace Squadron was pulled out of hyperspace by the gravity well projector. Believing she had been caught in a New Republic trap, Varrscha surrendered to Terrik, who promptly took command of Virulence and took it to Thyferra, where it would play a crucial role in the battle.

Following the conclusion of the Bacta War, Yag-prime was placed under New Republic control. Shortly after the Bastion Accords were signed in 19 ABY, the station was ceded to the Givin Domain.
