The Jade Moon was raided
by the Rebels after Lieutenant Kasan Moor, formally the leader of the dreaded
Imperial 128th TIE Interceptor Squadron defected to the Rebel Alliance.
She joined Rogue Squadron offering her piloting expertise and knowledge
of secret Imperial strongholds, she supplied the Rebels the location of
this Imperial Moon Base, which held a large amount of supplies needed by
the Rebellion. General Crix Madine would personally lead the raid on the
base, while Rogue Squadron would provide air support to protect the raid.
A Rebel Lambda-class Shuttle dropped off the Rebel raiders consisting of
4 Rebel Assault Vehicles and Rebel Commandos and the shuttle lifted off
just as Rogue Squadron arrived. The Rebel raiding forces were able to destroy
the 4 AT-PTs that were guarding the route to the facility, however the
Rebel Commandos were temporarily stopped since the shield protecting the
7 Imperial Bunkers and 1 storage tank holding the supplies was still operational.
The Rebels did not encounter any Imperial starfighter opposition at this
point. Skywalker with the other Rebel X-Wings navigated through the canyons,
staying low to avoid the Missile Turrets on the surface. He eventually
was able to located the shield generator and destroyed it, since Wedge
Antilles was not able to make the shot due to the angle he was at. With
the shield generator destroyed this caused the shield protecting the 7
Imperial Bunkers and 1 storage tank holding the supplies to drop, which
allowed the Rebel Commandos to storm the supply facility. When the shield
dropped 5 AT-PTs came to attack the Rebel raiders, but they were destroyed,
along with the 4 Turbolasers in the fighting against the Rebels. Several
TIE Interceptors were flying over head the Rebels, to provide cover for
a pair of TIE Bombers that would arrive shortly, they engaged the Rebel
X-Wings. The TIE Bombers started the bombing run, but they were destroyed
by the X-Wings. In a last ditch effort to destroy the Rebel ground forces,
a lone TIE Bomber arrived to finish the job, however it met the same fate
as the previous bombers did. When the X-Wings were able to destroy the
last of the TIE Interceptors, the Rebels were able to safely steal the
supplies from the Imperial supply facility.
