Six TIE Bombers were deployed to destroy the Pakuuni Pirate Outpost from which the pirates operated from. The attack was led by the Nebulon-B2 Frigate Ludwick. Imperial Intelligence learned that the Pakuuni Pirates were receiving protection from the Rebel Alliance. Stele targeted the Corvette Leach and ordered his wingmen to attack it. Stele then targeted the Corvette Clavier and let off five proton torpedoes at it. Stele finished off the corvette with his laser cannons. With that Stele engaged the Z-95s, but took the initiative to inspect the cargo containers. The ATR Tiger was launched as soon as Stele had located the Rebels among the cargo containers. Stele took the pressure off of his wingmen by attacking the Z-95s that were bent on destroying them. TIE Bombers from Beta group were able to destroy the remaining corvette.

    With the destruction of that corvette, Y-Wings arrived. Stele destroyed one of the Y-Wings, then turned his attention on inspecting the remaining containers. At this time an A-Wing appeared, but it was 13 km away, so Stele ignored it and went on destroying all of the cargo containers except for the one containing the Rebels. The ATR Tiger was in the process of capturing them. Once the ATR had captured the Rebels, Stele destroyed that cargo container. Stele went back to the Nebulon-B2 Frigate, and was in time to see the frigate's gunners destroy the A-Wing. After the Rebels on the cargo container were captured, more Rebel fighters arrived. After most of the Rebel fighters were destroyed, the Rebel shuttles arrived. And after the shuttles were destroyed, B-Wings entered the battle. In the end, all of the Rebels were destroyed. It was learned from the captured Rebels that they had an extensive presence in the area.
