Place
Outcome
Alliance to Restore the Republic Hurrim Galactic Empire Golov Nakhym AdmiralGarreth Holtz† Dunari
Prelude[]
In the months preceding theBattle of Endor, the Hurrim were removed fromDunari's trading empire following an unprovoked attack on a civilian convoy theRebel Alliance was raiding. The Hurrim responded by capturing many of Dunari's staff members and imprisoning them on the Hurrim Base. They also captured several Alliance cargo vessels, including sixMB-C1 medium transports under the group nameVemmer. The Hurrim's previous and fraudulent alliance with the Rebels threatened to turn the galaxy against the Rebel Alliance, so the Rebels and Dunari became determined to destroy the Hurrim before they could inflict further damage.
The Battle[]
The Hurrim Base remained hidden from Rebel eyes before being uncovered by Dunari and Alliance Intelligence in a deep space asteroid belt, prompting a massive strike on the station.
The RebelNebulon-B frigateJericho and a large force of Alliance starfighters includingAce Azzameen assaulted the Hurrim Base and proceeded to destroy its starfighter, static, and capital ship defenses. The Hurrim Base was defended by waves ofPreybird-class starfighters,Asteroid Laser Batteries,Asteroid Warhead Launchers, and twoMarauder-class corvettes,Broadside andPlank. Despite these sizeable defenses, the Rebels quickly destroyed all of these vessels and most of the starfighters, sustaining only minor losses. The Hurrim Base was then disabled by Alliance B-wings, and several transports designatedStorm Unit boarded the platform and the Alliance transports. They powered the captured transports and saved Dunari's entire staff, then they evacuated to theJericho.
However,ImperialAdmiralGarreth Holtz arrived in theImperial-class Star DestroyerCorrupter to repulse the Rebel attack and save their Hurrim allies. Dunari's forces showed up on theDreadnaughtLongshot and together, the Rebels and Dunari destroyed theCorrupter. This resulted in the presumed death of Admiral Holtz. The Alliance then capturedGolov Nakhym, who tried to escape on the shuttleLendros.
After the hostages were saved, the defenseless Hurrim Base was destroyed, finally ending the treachery of the Hurrim.
Aftermath[]
The destruction of the Hurrim Base effectively destroyed the Hurrim, and the last remnants of the pirate force sank into obscurity. The loss of theCorrupter and its commander Admiral Holtz proved an embarrassing loss for the Galactic Empire. The success of the battle ensured the security of the badly-shaken alliance between Dunari and the Rebels, and restored Galactic confidence in the Alliance. The destruction of the Hurrim ensured that the cargo pact between Dunari and the Rebels would resume peacefully, ensuring the Alliance's readiness for the fight atEndor.
