Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.
The seizure of Moorja occurred in 4 ABY when the New Republic wrested control of the Inner Rim planet Moorja from the control of Warlord Sander Delvardus.
During the battle, a fleet of EF76 Nebulon-B escort frigates, supported by Y-wing bombers, destroyed the Thalassa, a Praetor Mark II-class battlecruiser.
Following their victory, the Republic established a permanent base on the planet, from which it launched strikes against Imperial targets in the following years.
