Silvo's pirate raid

Canon Linked from 18 articles

In the New Republic Era, a raid was conducted by Silvo's pirates on a New Republic bulk Cargo freighter.

Using the much larger pirate frigate Captained by Silvo, he and his crew intercepted the fleeing freighter while the two ships exchanged turbolaser fire. After being disabled, the freighter came to a slow, with debris flying around the New Republic vessel in space. The pirate vessel then maneuvered itself to be parallel with the freighter, continuing to lay down fire. Silvo's pirates deployed boarding bridges that breached the hull of the Bulk Freighter and allowed the pirates to board as the merchants took up defensive positions.

The Bulk Freighter's final turbolaser disabled one of the bridges as the pirates boarded the ship and exchanged blaster fire with the merchants.
