Battle at Trenchenovu
Canon Linked from 22 articles
Six months before the Battle of Endor, the battle at Trenchenovu was fought when a squadron of BTL-A4 Y-wing assault starfighter/bombers, led by the rebel pilot Nath Tensent launched an attack on the Trenchenovu shipyards. During the bombing run, the squadron was ambushed by the 204th Imperial Fighter Wing which forced them to abandon their mission.
The Imperial-class Star Destroyer Sanction cut off the squadron's escape, forcing them to make for the other side of the shipyards. Each of Tensent's squadron died one by one until it was only Tensent and his second, Reeka. Tensent was forced to abandon his comrade, whose astromech droid had been destroyed, to flee the battle alive and retreated to the Entropian Hive for repairs.
