Dua Ningo/Legends

Dua Ningo was a Sullustan and the CIS commander in charge of the Bulwark Fleet in 20 BBY. Since the Clone Wars had started in 19 BBY, the Republic had blockaded the Techno Union-owned Foerost shipyards in the Deep Core. The Republic had hoped that the Foerost shipyards would wither and decay without access to more supplies.

They were wrong since for two years after the start of the war at the Battle of Geonosis, the besieged Techno Union engineers had been designing the Bulwark Mark I-class Battlecruiser&mdash;a 1,000 metres long warship equipped with turbolasers, ion cannons and enough armour for ramming smaller vessels. When the time was ripe, the Bulwark Fleet at the command of Dua Ningo smashed through the Republic blockade at Foerost and then terrorised Republic worlds within Sector Zero.

In response to the Bulwark Fleet, the Republic launched its Victory I-class Star Destroyers six months early. These vessels were related to the Acclamator-class Assault Ships that saw action at Geonosis early during the war and were born of the Victory Initiative Project between Kuat Drive Yards and Rendili StarDrive. They were 900 metres long and featured 10 tractor beam projectors and 80 concussion missile launchers.

These newly made vessels formed the Victory Fleet and were divided into two task forces led by Captain Terrinald Screed and Jan Dodonna. They saw action against the Bulwark Fleet at Ixtlar, Alsakan and Basilisk. At the Battle of Anaxes, Ningo was killed and his fleet defeated. Screed and Dodonna would return to Coruscant as heroes for the Republic.
