Attack on the Colossus

Canon Linked from 21 articles

During the era of the New Republic, the pirate Kragan Gorr and his gang used a low-visibility storm, which were codenamed "triple darks," to launch an attack on the Colossus refueling station on behalf of their employers, the First Order. The Ace Squadron, the platform's defenders, fought well, but were ultimately outnumbered by the pirates. Their victory was secured, however, when Resistance spy Kazuda Xiono covertly broadcast a grating feedback loop over the pirates' communications channel, preventing them from coordinating their attack. Xiono's contribution to the Colossus defense went unheralded, as among the Aces, only Torra Doza suspected there had been another factor in the victory beyond their skills, and Xiono's boss Jarek Yeager didn't believe Xiono when he tried to tell him about it.
