A pair of Imperial Strike
Cruisers encountered a pair of MC40as and forced the Rebels to engage them.
All capital ships in this battle launched their starfighters. The Rebels
had quickly called for their A-Wing reinforcements and not long after,
Imperial Forces called for their Assault Gunboat reinforcements. The battle
was very fierce, however not once in the battle did any of the capital
ships trade any fire, this battle was totally fought by starfighters. Assault
Gunboats from Rho Squadron targeted the Rebel's command ship but were not
successful in destroying it. The Strike Cruiser Asp took heavy damage and
was forced into leaving the battle, by hypering out of the area. A short
time later the last of the Rebel ships were destroyed, thereby spelling
another Imperial victory in the Airam Sector.
