Battle of Kothlis

Working with Bothan spies, Luke Skywalker sent plans for a new imperial weapon to a Corellian corvette, the Razor, orbiting the Bothan homeworld of Kothlis. The rebel fighters arrived at Kothlis to discover and imperial star destroyer captured the Razor. Wedge Antilles led grey squadron to attack the shield generators, while green squadron took fighters, and red squadron destroyed the turbolasers and ion cannons on the ship. The Redemption came under heavy attack by TIE fighters, but was saved by the x-wing groups. The three shield generators were quickly destroyed, but the cruiser prepared to jump to hyperspace. In a desperate act of heroism, Wedge fired proton torpedoes into the command deck, sending the star destroyer crashing into the planet. But the battle wasn’t over… As rebel and imperial reinforcements arrived at the orbital battle, red squadron with Crix Madine and 100 ground troops landed on the beach where the destroyer had crashed. Stormtroopers had come out, firing at Madine’s forces with E-web blasters. AT-ATs and AT-PTs had blasted out of the crash. Gold Squadron headed for the planet’s surface, increasing the rebel offense. Madine uploaded the data, now knowing why the empire was so anxious to retrieve the information- it was the plans for the second death star.
