The Rebels sent two Y-Wings
to destroy the valuable cargo freighters and space containers that were
momentarily left unprotected in a staging area in the Bonadan System. The
space containers in the staging area were being readied for shipment by
Space Tugs. The Y-Wings arrived in the area and conducted their attack
on the staging area. The area contained 7 space containers, the two Space
Tugs and the BFF-1 Freighter Banthar. A short time after the battle
started, the BFF-1 Freighter Deddite arrived in the area and a short
time later the Lambda Shuttle Krayt arrived. Y-Wing Red 1 intercepted
the shuttle and destroyed it with its laser fire. A short time after the
shuttle arrived, the BFF-1 Freighter Birkby hypered into the area.
Unfortunately, the Nebulon-B Frigate Enforcer arrived near the end
of the battle, all it found was the debris of the cargo assets and the
two Rebel Y-Wings. With the Rebel Y-Wings still in the area, the Imperial
frigate launched 6 TIE Fighters. With the arrival of the Imperial frigate,
the Rebel Y-Wings hypered out of the area.
