"Nice work, Rogue Squadron. We might make a name for ourselves, after all."

- Luke Skywalker, following the Imperial ambush of Mos Eisley

"Did Skywalker make that shot?" "That was me." "Hey, I thought I was the best!"

- Crix Madine, Luke Skywalker, and Wedge Antilles, following Skywalker's precision shot to destroy the shield generator on the Jade Moon

"Let's head home. I need to paint some TIE Fighters on my fuselage."

- Luke Skywalker, following the raid on Balmorra

"Nice job, Skywalker. I beginning to see why they say you're the best."

- Kasan Moor

Shortly following the Rebels' evacuation of Yavin Base circa .5 ABY, Skywalker, in command of the newly formed Rogue Squadron attached to a roving Alliance capital ship command base, led a series of missions against the Empire. During a leisurely early morning run through Tatooine's Beggars Canyon in their X-wings, Skywalker, Antilles, and another Rogue unexpectedly encountered an Imperial ambush of Mos Eisley. They were able to drive away a pacification force of TIE bombers and Viper probe droids.

Rogue Squadron's duties soon turned to a campaign of search-and-rescue and escort missions for Alliance forces under the command of General Carlist Rieekan. Skywalker helped to escort a supply convoy of much needed war matériel from resistance forces through Imperial territory on the humid world of Barkesh. They later assisted in a race-against-time recovery against TIE interceptors and bombers of a downed Rebel ship, the Nonnah, that had been carrying a number of Rebel soldiers and stolen Imperial equipment and had crash landed on the fog-shrouded world of Chorax. Flying RZ-1 A-wing interceptors, the Rogues helped protect a Lambda-class shuttle that worked to extract the crew from the crash site.

When Imperial officer Crix Madine expressed to the Rebellion his desire to defect in 1 ABY, Skywalker led the squadron in T-47 airspeeders into Coronet City, the capital city of Corellia, where Rieekan was engaged in a meeting with city leaders in the Coronet Capital Tower concerning Madine's defection. The Rogues helped fend off a concentrated attack on the capital tower by TIE bombers and, with the timely intervening help of Solo and Chewbacca in the Millennium Falcon, were able to oversee Madine's safe transition into Alliance hands and help evacuate the citizens trapped in the tower just before its destruction. During the battle, Skywalker utilized for the first time an ingenious new tactic to defeat All Terrain Armored Transports. Using his speeder's harpoon and tow cable, he and his rear gunner tangled up the legs of two AT-ATs, tripping them to the ground and effectively rendering them inoperable.

Skywalker and the Rogues, in conjunction with a flight of Gold Squadron Y-wings led by Madine, responded to a distress signal sent to the Rebellion from the planet Gerrard V, where the local Imperial governor was looting the city following a previous failed anti-Imperial revolt by the planet's inhabitants. The Alliance force was met by the elite 128th TIE Interceptor Squadron under the command of Lieutenant Kasan Moor. Engaging the 128th in a dogfight above Gerrard V's urban centers, the Rogues were able to help the planet gain its independence. Madine used his Y-wing's ion cannons to disable Moor's interceptor during the skirmish. Captured by the Rebellion, she too decided to defect from Imperial forces and joined Rogue Squadron under Skywalker's command.

Moor provided the location of an Imperial supply depot on the Jade Moon, a weapons repository for local Imperial bases within the Carosus system. Although Antilles expressed his skepticism of Moor's trustworthiness to Skywalker, the latter was willing to allow her the opportunity to prove herself. Skywalker and the Rogues flew air cover for a commando team led by Madine, that was to infiltrate and raid the moon's supply inventory. During the raid, the Imperial forces raised a shield around the base, preventing Madine and his forces access. Skywalker, however, destroyed the base's nearby shield generator that was located at the end of a winding canyon with a salvo of proton torpedoes, reminiscent of his actions that destroyed the first Death Star only a year prior. The shot was executed at a near-impossible angle and under the fire of a series of missile launchers, earning the impression of Madine. At the conclusion of the battle, Skywalker expressed to Moor his pride that she was now fighting for her own ideals.

Further intelligence from Moor led the squadron on a hit-and-run mission to the Imperial factory world of Balmorra, where Skywalker was instrumental in the destruction of AT-AT and AT-ST manufacturing facilities, again in the cockpit of a T-47; a raid on the planet Kile II in Y-wings, which saw Skywalker help to raze the local Imperial Enclave, crippling Imperial Navy operations in that sector. During the battle, however, Antilles' Y-wing was ambushed and shot down by TIE Interceptors, leading to his capture. This inevitably led the Rogues to the Imperial prison world of Kessel, where Antilles had been shipped. Flying an X-wing specially equipped with an ion cannon, Skywalker assisted in the disabling of a ray shielded armored hovertrain to rescue Antilles before it could deliver him to the central prison facility. Immediately thereafter, Skywalker once more flew cover for Madine's commandos as they infiltrated the extensive prison complex to rescue a number of other incarcerated Rebels.

With Rogue Squadron once more at full strength, the Alliance faced a new threat&mdash;the Imperial Moff Kohl Seerdon, who had set his aims on the precious bacta supplies of Thyferra, hoping to cripple the Rebellion's medical efforts. Skywalker and the Rogues were tasked with a series of quick hit-and-run raids to disrupt Seerdon's operations. The first included an A-wing strike against the Imperial tibanna gas mining colony of Taloraan. During the Taloraan raid, a group of Rebels had stolen three AT-PTs from an Imperial research facility on the icy planet of Fest. The Rogues raced to help their comrades, whose escape had not gone as planned. Skywalker personally escorted the AT-PTs to safety through a heavy fire zone, once more employing the harpoon and tow cable tactic to bring down three AT-ATs. He then proceeded to destroy Seerdon's research facility.

In retribution for the Fest raid, Seerdon initiated a blockade of the planet Chandrila. The Rogues were once more rushed into action, first helping to escort an armored hover train carrying supplies vital to the Chandrilan resistance forces, and then overseeing the escape of civilians aboard evacuation shuttles. Rogue Squadron was ultimately able to secure the city after a contested dogfight. When Moor spotted Seerdon escaping from the scene in his own shuttle under the escort of several TIE Interceptors after the battle, Skywalker personally ordered her to refrain from pursuing him, warning her that they did not know how many ships he had backing him up.

Rogue Squadron soon engineered their own brand of retribution, destroying an Imperial geothermal energy transmitter, the Capacitor, above a volcano on the planet Sullust. However, the effort turned out to be nothing but a diversion by Seerdon, drawing the Rogues away from his true intentions: the seizure of Thyferra's bacta, to cut off the Rebellion's supplies for good. Skywalker led his squadron into battle against Seerdon's forces in the Thyferra skies. The skirmish culminated in a final head-to-head dogfight between Skywalker and Seerdon himself, in a modified Sentinel-class landing craft. Skywalker was able to destroy Seerdon's craft, killing him, finally securing the planet's bacta.

At some point during this period, Skywalker, Antilles, Dak Ralter, and Zev Senesca entered into a friendly race through Beggar's Canyon in T-16 Skyhoppers. Skywalker defeated each of his squadronmates, ritualistically finishing the race by "threading" the eye of the Stone Needle, though he admitted afterwards that he felt bad since he was a certified expert at the course.

Notes:
 * I've listed the defection of Corellia as the first time Skywalker employed the tactic of tripping AT-ATs with tow cables. This may, in fact, first occur at an earlier time of which I am unaware.
 * Included are some quotes you may find useful.

It's coming, it's coming! Toprawa and Ralltiir 22:39, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

It's been months with nothing yet, and I just re-read this, so here goes. It might be a bit too "play-by-play". —Xwing328 (Talk) 03:04, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

insert transition here...Skywalker accompanied Leia Organa on a diplomatic mission to the Circarpous system, hoping to persuade the citizens of Circarpous IV to openly reject the Empire and join the Rebel Alliance. After leaving the secret Rebel outpost on Circarpous XIV with their droids in a pair of BTL Y-wing starfighters, they crash landed on the planet of Mimban, where the Empire was running a covert energy mining operation. On Mimban, Skywalker and Organa encountered a Force-sensitive woman named Halla, who claimed to be a master of the Force. Having in her possession a shard of crystal that resonated in the Force when touched by a Force-sensitive, Skywalker and Organa struck a deal with Halla, promising to help the old woman find the Kaiburr crystal of Mimbanite legend if she in turn aided them in their escape off the planet. Before the newly formed group could set out, however, they ran into trouble with a group of local miners, and Skywalker and the princess were arrested. Imperial stormtroopers brought them before Captain-Supervisor Grammel. While initially questioning Luke and Leia, Grammel recognized the potential value of the crystal shard Luke now had in his possession. He imprisoned Skywalker and Organa with a duo of drunk Yuzzem, Hin and Kee. Skywalker succeeded in befriending the alien brutes, as he had picked up a passable amount of their native language, Yuzz, back in his spare time on Tatooine.

After ensuring his prisoners were locked in a maximum security cell, Grammel contacted Governor Bin Essada to have the crystal shard appraised, but Essada recognized Princess Leia and proceeded to inform Lord Vader of the Rebels' location. Imprisoned, but not out of action, Skywalker learned to work with Halla to control the Force and managed an escape from prison. The group, with their new Yuzzem friends, stole an Imperial swamp crawler and headed off on a trek into the swampy jungle and towards the ancient Temple of Pomojema.

After XXX days, the group drove into a vicious wandrella and was split up when Luke and Leia escaped down a Thrella well. Luke and Leia were forced to stay underground when the wandrella destroyed...? The remainder of the team trekked towards the nearest accessible (Thrella well?) on foot, as the wandrella had destroyed their swamp transport, too.

Add the rest about underground trek, encounters with the Coway, confrontation with Imperials, and Luke's first duel with Vader.

Collapsing New Empires by Atarumaster88''
Some time after the defeat of Palpatine, Luke, his sister, Han Solo, and Chewbacca, were involved in a brief space battle against a group of older-modeled TIE interceptors. They defeated the Imperial craft when Leia noticed a group of Jawa sandcrawlers floating in space. Skywalker and Solo also noticed an experimental TIE X1 fighter fleeing the scene of battle and they pursued it. The craft led them to a facility filled with Imperial war machinery and inhabited by an artist named Perek, who emerged to greet Skywalker, Solo, Organa Solo, and Chewbacca. Though Perek claimed to be harmless, Skywalker sensed a disturbance in the Force and the others were suspicious as well. While investigating a group of unusual insects, Skywalker was beset upon by a group of Jawas. Activating his lightsaber, he sliced through them, revealing that only Jawa-sized droids were present under the robes. Furthermore, R2-D2 and C-3PO, who had gone exploring the facility by themselves, had had sizable droid chassis attached to them and had grabbed hold of Han, Leia, and Chewbacca. Meanwhile, Skywalker had issues of his own, as his mechanical arm began to mutate and grow, consuming more of his arm. Confronting Perek, Skywalker learned that he had created an "art virus" that consumed organic flesh and used it to create mechanical replacements instead. Perek claimed that soon Skywalker would be a machine, like his deceased father, thanks to his infection, but Skywalker angrily denied that, cutting off his own out-of-control mechanical arm. Han Solo and Chewbacca had disabled the rest of the droids and the virus-carrying insects with a Corellian spark grenade, and the deranged artist was defeated, though at the cost of Skywalker's right forearm.

Marvel 51
Skywalker was dispatched by himself as part of a group of scouting teams sent by the Alliance to search for a base to replace Hoth. Landing on a remote world, Skywalker found the planet unappealing, particularly after he uncovered a communications beacon hidden beneath the muck of the planet's surface. He was then attacked by an Imperial AT-ST, but managed to have R2-D2 activate his X-wing's shields, repelling the walker's fire. Skywalker acted quickly, attacking the communications beacon. As the AT-ST turned to fire on him, he dove into the muck and emerged next to the walker, severing one of its legs with his lightsaber. He then escaped the planet in his X-wing just ahead of incoming AT-ATs and received a priority signal to return to the Alliance fleet.

Upon returning, he was informed of the existence of a new Imperial superweapon, the Tarkin, which possessed powerful defensive systems and a superlaser. Skywalker, along with Organa Solo, Chewbacca, and C-3PO was chosen to go along for the mission, and the four journeyed to Hockaleg, where shuttles to the superweapon departed from. After persuading Leia to wile away some uniforms from some passing workers, the Alliance party, disguised as Imperial workers, managed to get aboard a shuttle with the aid of a Jedi mind trick. They headed to the superweapon on a mission to attack its reactor core from the inside and landed aboard it with their cover intact.

(Since this point in the timeline is perhaps the most complicated one, I'm going to explain why I put those sources in such order)
 * The Day after the Death Star(Self-explanatory, I think...)
 * Star Wars Missions #1-12 (Starts right after EP IV, but Solo is still with the Rebels, so it can't be after Marvel series)
 * The Rebel Thief
 * X-wing Marks the Spot (Those two take place during Missions, 'cause Solo is still around and the timeframe is still close to ANH)
 * Star Wars (Marvel) #7-#34 (One continuous story about Leia, Luke and Han separating, rejoining, separating once again, getting back to Yavin, defeating Tagge and repairing Artoo. All issues are linked tight)
 * The Keeper's World (Could be inserted here, it was probably supposed to be closer to ANH, but this period is already owerwhelmed with Missions)
 * The Kingdom of Ice(A direct follow-up to the previous comic)
 * Classic Star Wars: The Early Adventures 1-6 (Han makes a mention in The Second Kessel Run of making a Kessel run for Jabba, suggesting that The Early Adventures take place after Marvel's issue 27, but before issue 37, in a period when Jabba forgave Solo's debt)
 * Planet of Kadril (Originally published with the strips, that were later collected in the Early Adventures, so I guess it is in the same timeline slot)
 * The Constancia Affair (Same here, set after The Early Adventures, because C-3PO wants to tell about a "strange occurrence on Tatooine", the one that has happened in Tatooine Sojourn)

 * Missions 13-16 (Mentions Hoth, that is discovered in Classic SW)
 * Doom Mission (Han asks if Luke suspects Vrad of being the Imperial spy. Not intentionally, it can possibly tie this comic with the latter one. Also, after the Executor is damaged, there is a possible gap in the storyline, that allows the Imperial Spy and the final Missions arc to take place)
 * Imperial Spy(Except for the final few pages)
 * Missions 17-20 (Must take place during the evacuation because of Q-7N, see his article's Bts for more info)

The official fact file
All entries relating to Luke Skywalker, as indicated by the Official Fact File Index:



Xwing328's junk pile
Stuff that somebody needs to work on (If you've taken care of it, feel free to edit the list):
 * Have somebody check Star Wars Missions #9 and #10, since those are the only one's that Luke is apparently not in.
 * Have somebody check the rest of the Galaxy of Fear books, too.
 * RotS junior novelization - Yoda suggested they make Padmé look pregnant at her funeral to further disguise the fact that Luke and Leia were born.
 * Junior novelizations
 * Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (junior novelization)
 * Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope (junior novelization)
 * Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back (junior novelization)
 * Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi (junior novelization)
 * Mighty Chronicles (If anybody even has these three)
 * Star Wars (Mighty Chronicles)

 * Choose Your Own Star Wars Adventure: A New Hope
 * Choose Your Own Star Wars Adventure: The Empire Strikes Back
 * Choose Your Own Star Wars Adventure: Return of the Jedi
 * The Last of the Jedi #1 and #10
 * Star Wars Masterpiece Edition - Never read any of these. Might Luke be mentioned in one or both?
 * Anakin Skywalker: The Story of Darth Vader
 * C-3PO: Tales of the Golden Droid
 * Star Wars: Incredible Cross-Sections - Luke carried single pair of proton torpedoes on Death Star attack.
 * The Official Star Wars Technical Journal of the Planet Tatooine - Maybe for "Legacy" section: Luke's story was well-known even to the smallest kids on Tatooine, and visitors to Tatooine could take the Skywalker Tour.
 * The Making of Star Wars Revenge of the Sith - The scene where Luke was handed over to the Lars in Ep.3 was filmed on September 7, 2000, while the crew was on location in Chott el Jerid, Tunisia for Ep.2. In this scene, Luke was portrayed by a newborn baby doll designated on the Call Sheet as "A.N. Other."
 * Luke's Fate says Luke found a rock jammed between two of R2-D2's metal plates. It also has R2-D2 running away during breakfast, whereupon Luke immediately leaves to search for the droid. Additionally, Luke decides to follow Obi-Wan while at Kenobi's hut, without Luke discovering the murder of the Lars.
 * Missions 1 - just after Ep4 - Skywalker left the party a bit early to tinker with his X-wing's proton torpedo launcher. Sensors detected a modified Carrack assault cruiser entering the Yavin system, and Solo, against General Dodonna's orders, flew out in the Millennium Falcon to stop it. The assault cruiser was badly damaged and forced to crash land eight kilometers east of the base. After the Rebels managed to subdue the Imperials and capture the ship's captain, they discovered that the Death Star was carrying a large load of contaminated bacta. During the skirmish with Imperial troopers, the Rebels befriended an ancient droid named Q-7N.
 * Missions 2 - don't have it...
 * Missions 3 - Skywalker, Solo, Chewbacca, Princess Leia, R2-D2, C-3PO, and Q-7N traveled to Thyferra in Missions 2, and then headed to Delrakkin aboard the Falcon in an attempt to uncover the Empire's plot. During this time, Skywalker is frustrated that Solo and the Princess seem to like each other. As the Millennium Falcon neared the planet, twenty-four X-wing starfighters flown by Imperial pilots (in the hopes of staging a false Rebel raid on the planet Delrakkin) attacked the Falcon. Solo and Skywalker defended from the upper and lower gun turrets respectively, with Luke trusting not in the targeting computer but in the Force, as Obi-Wan Kenobi had taught him, and managing to take out two of the attackers, while Solo destroyed one. A fourth, however, crashed into the Falcon's deflector shield projector, forcing the ship to stage a crash and land for repairs. One of the Rebels launched after the remaining X-wings in the Y-wing starfighter attached to the hull of the Falcon. After being shot down, nearly captured, infiltrating the Liquidator, and succeeding in returning to the downed Falcon in one of the captured Imperial X-wings, Skywalker and the others discovered that the Liquidator was headed for the Yavin system and quickly left in pursuit.
 * Missions 4 - As the Millennium Falcon reverted to realspace upon entering the Yavin system, Skywalker and Solo were forced to shoot down a probe droid sent by the Liquidator towards Yavin 4 in an attempt to locate the Rebel base. One of the Rebels destroyed the Liquidator, and upon being rescued by the Millennium Falcon, Han, Chewbacca, Luke, Leia, R2, 3PO, and Q-7n returned to celebrate with the Rebels until late in the night.
 * Missions 5-8,11,12 - don't have them
 * Missions 13 - sometime prior to Ep5 - Luke goes with Han, Leia, Chewie, and the droids shopping for spare parts to build the Hoth shield generator. They pick up an ancient B-1 series protocol droid, B-1D4, at a Skrilling salvage ship. En route to Dweem after making their purchases, the tertiary ion reflux enhancer on the Millennium Falcon failed, leaving the ship stranded in space at the mercy of Nikto pirates aboard the Predator-class warship M'hendosat. All the crew but one is captured. (Can we assume this is Luke, since the PC uses the Force and has a welder, and Luke was the one supposed to use the welder before the plan went awry? If so, add stuff about the PC's actions onboard the ship; otherwise, add that he was knocked out by Bothan stun spores and held captive in the ship's brig before being freed.) The one free crew member, with the help of the droids, freed the others and managed to escape. Luke examined B-1D4 and realized that she had been part of the Imperial Department of Redesign's The Heart of Steel project.
 * Mission 14 - don't have it...
 * Mission 15 - Skywalker erased the events of the past few days from the droids' memories to clear the effects of B-1D4's virus; unfortunately, the navigation computer onboard the Millennium Falcon was still infected, reinfecting R2-D2 and rerouting the group from their intended destination of the Rebel base on Hoth to Coruscant, capital planet of the Galactic Empire. Surrounded by hundreds of warships, orbiting battle platforms, and the endless flow of traffic around Coruscant, the crew was forced to pass through Imperial Traffic Control and land, albeit with a secondary transponder to disguise the Falcon as the Icebreak. With little hope of escaping on their own, Skywalker, Princess Leia, Chewbacca, R2-D2, and C-3PO, with the deactivated B-1D4 in tow, followed Solo into the underworld of Coruscant, seeking out former smuggling contact and master criminal Phelon. Convinced dockworker droid in for repairs, blew through plastcrete wall in refresher to avoid customs. Killed three of the four stormtroopers who spot you, including the sergeant. Other managed to flee for backup. Take one hovercab several miles (yes miles, not kilometers) from the spaceport, then hop in another to take you thirty miles to a public elevator entrance into Coruscant's underworld. While eating at a diner, hear that Falcon was identified and the group spotted on holovid. People searching for group. Split up into two groups and manage to reach Phelon's hideout castle after fighting through various Underworld monsters, including his domesticated giant walking fish, Hobbrock. Repaying a long-standing debt to Han Solo, Phelon infected the military security network with B-1D4's code, reprogramming it to allow the Falcon, under the new pseudonym Felon Melon, to leave Coruscant unhindered. The Rebels jumped to hyperspace en route to the nearest Alliance outpost on the planet Cheeyoom Matee. There, they were brought to a debriefing, where the base commander betrayed them to the Empire and allowed stormtroopers to bring the group to the Imperial prison on Merakai.

JJK
I'm not entirely sure how the timeline works, since apparently Han and Leia don't send their kids to the academy at the same time. Anakin was involved with Jacen and Jaina finding Zekk while they were back on Coruscant (The Lost Ones). Maybe this was Anakin's 3-month vacation from the academy? JJK1 has to start after Heirs of the Force (when the Solo twins start their training) and before The Lost Ones, since JJK1 is his first time on Yavin 4.
 * Bit of a response from Ataru: J & J do go home in The Lost Ones and meet Zekk. I'd have to check again to see if Anakin is directly mentioned. They're back on Yavin 4 by the end of the book IIRC. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.svg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 20:36, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Just checked some more: Anakin had already been to the academy by the time the twins came home in The Lost Ones. Do J & J have any breaks on Coruscant from the academy in the YJK books before The Lost Ones. —Xwing328 (Talk) 21:58, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * You know, all of this timeline crap will work out if YJK1 is in fact not the first time Jacen and Jaina are on Yavin 4 for training. I guess that was just a false assumption I've been making? The Golden Globe states that Anakin left for his first class as soon as "Jaina and Jacen returned from their time at the academy." Anakin also mentions seeing J & J at the academy during his classes several times in the JJK books. All sources, from the NEC to the SW Message Boards and the Del Rey online timeline show this series starting in 22 ABY, before even Survivor's Quest. So, do we put these six books, then Survivor's Quest, and then the YJK series?
 * A check of our Jaina Solo FA reveals that JJK seems to be the first mention of Jaina at the academy. 23 ABY is when that book is set, so that would seem to be the case. Our own internal timeline places these in that order; I suppose we should adjust the appearances section above. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.svg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 15:34, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
 * A further check in YJK 1 says J & J first visited the Praxeum at age 2 and have been on and off since then. I'm glad to get a firm source for it finally. —Xwing328 (Talk) 02:46, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

The Dark Man
4 years after the Swarm War ended, Luke began having visions of a man, wrapped in shadow, bringing pain to the Galaxy, as well as to himself. After a couple of dreams involving the man, Luke decided to tell Mara about it. Though she suggested to Luke that it may have been Raynar, he explained to her to it reminded him of his father, Vader. Luke would often see this man's eyes turn to a yellow color, signifying his use of the Dark Side. Mara though, could not see what he was worrying about, and left Luke to sleep.

Luke was still worried though; not only was he having repeated visions of the dark man, there were growing tensions between the Galactic Alliance and Corellia, who was struggling to remain free of the GA's fleet requirement, but also wanted its benefits to remain. As a result, he sent Ben, his son, and his master and nephew, Jacen, to Adumar to investigate these tensions, as well as any illegal activites going on there. What Ben and Jacen did find, was an illegal missile factory, and escaped after revealing the factory to the GA.

This takes place 4 months after the Battle of Hoth. Luke and Lando are said to be busy tracking down Boba Fett so as to rescue Han:

While searching for Boba Fett.... the Alliance was contacted by Gel, an inhabitant of Dalnicron-4. Gel knew of a uniquely Force-sensitive child that provides a direct connection to the Force. Fearful that the Empire might discover the boy, Gel begged for Luke Skywalker to journey to the planet and take the boy and his parents into protective custody. However, too busy with his own search for Solo, and unsure of the veracity of the request, a weary Commander Skywalker requested a small group of Rebel agents travel to the planet and bring the boy back to Home One.

However, their transport's coolant soon broke amidst the sands of Tatooine, because of a shot from one of stormtroopers. Thanks to Artoo and Threepio, who reminded that droids also had coolants, the group was able to link their coolant systems to the landspeeder, evading the Imperial scout party and reaching the place where Luke's spaceship was parked, only to witness some Jawas scavenging it. The young Skywalker wanted to get the Jawas off of his ship, but Han offered to ask them for transportation to Mos Eisley, and the ''Millennium Falcon parked there, instead. The Jawas agreed and allowed Han, Luke and Chewie to ride in their sandcrawler, but took R2 and 3PO as part of the bargain. Soon the small creatures informed them that they wanted to finish their three month scavenging run first, but as Luke and Han started to protest, stormtroopers appeared. Status:Almost half done
