Yavin 4 turf war

Canon Linked from 8 articles

In 4 BBY, a group of Maya Pei Brigade survivors had a series of disagreements on the moon Yavin 4. The dispute turned violent when Crab shot and killed Rika, causing the entire group to begin firing upon one another. They eventually split into two sides, and sent out individuals to scout in the jungle.

The rebel Cassian Andor was caught in the midst of the turf war, which broke out after he was taken prisoner by the brigade, who believed him to be an Imperial pilot.

After a long standoff, both sides emerged from hiding, lowered their weapons, and agreed to settle the conflict through a Roski rules variant of the game Five Hands. Their game was interrupted when a Yavinian doodar charged through the clearing and swallowed members of the brigade. Through the commotion, Andor escaped capture and fled in his stolen TIE Avenger prototype.
