Legends Linked from 9 articles

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

An attack to disrupt Trade Federation Communications Satellite 4 occurred during the Invasion of Naboo in 32 BBY. During the invasion, a group of Naboo resistance fighters, led by Captain Kael of Bravo Squadron, found and saved a criminal smuggler named Borvo the Hutt. After they escorted him to his mountain base, the Hutt gave the resistance pilots new fighters and intelligence about the invading forces. Together they formed a plan to disrupt the Trade Federation comm web and infiltrate the base it controlled. The Naboo and mercenary pilots launched into orbit, where they discovered and destroyed three shield projectors protecting Comm 4. They then assaulted the satellite until it exploded, cutting off control to the Trade Federation base.
