The Imperial Ghorman base
was slated for expansion and a convoy bearing the needed materials was
sent. Before reaching the base, the convoy was met by TIE Fighters from
the Ghorman base. The Rebels hypered into the area. The Rebel A-Wing concentrated
its attacks on the escorting TIE Fighters, while the Y-Wing attacked and
destroyed the Imperial freighters. Unfortunately in the end, the Rebels
were able to destroy the entire convoy. As a result the base's expansion
was delayed for an entire year.
