During Nightswan's campaign, a battle over Umbara erupted above the planet Umbara between the naval forces of the Galactic Empire and forces controlled by the mysterious individual known as Nightswan. Also known as the mission to Umbara, the battle ended in the Empire's favor when Captain Thrawn relayed orders to the other vessels of Admiral Carlou Gendling's task force to target Nightswan's Vulture droids while they were within the transmission shadow of the individual ships.
