Battle of Eos (Invasion of Naboo)

A battle of Eos was fought between the pirate Nym's forces, with his recently made allies Vana Sage, Rhys Dallows, and Reti, and forces of the Trade Federation at the planet Eos in 32 BBY. Although they had various reasons for it, the goal of the allies was to destroy the Trade Federation droid production facilities on Eos and thus prevent an invasion of Naboo. Rhys Dallows and Reti were first to engage the Federation by attacking the orbital defenses. The two avoided droid starfighters and mines to destroy four satellite that sent targeting information to a Planetary Gun, which capable of firing from ground to space. With the outer defenses down, Vana Sage and Nym flew to the surface and destroyed every building there. Although the allies were too late to stop Naboo's invasion, the group would go on to fight the Trade Federation occupation there.
