A battle occurred when the Ansarra Rebel base, an Alliance to Restore the Republic starfighter base, came under attack by a Star Destroyer, a capital ship of the Galactic Empire. The attack occurred prior to the Destruction of the Death Star. The Rebel starship Freebooter, piloted by smuggler Devon Fuller, also came under attack from the Imperial ship and was wrecked, though Fuller was able to escape. The Rebel Alliance would later loan him a freighter named The Solar Flair so Fuller could continue to support their cause.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
The battle was mentioned in the 1993 reference book Galaxy Guide 9: Fragments from the Rim, published by West End Games for the Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game.[1]

(backup link) (screenshot) Jason Fry, co-author of The Essential Atlas, stated his intention to create homeworlds for numerous species based on context implied from their names. Given this principle, this article makes a similar basic assumption for the Ansarra Rebel base in relation to the Ansarra system.
