Nythlide Array

The Nythlide Array, or Nythlide sector, was an Inner Rim Territories sector controlled by the Galactic Empire during the Galactic Civil War. In 5 ABY, the Empire's 204th Imperial Fighter Wing attacked and engulfed the planet Dybbron III in the sector as part of an effort against Imperial worlds that had broken away from the loyalist forces of the Empire. Around the same time, a New Republic battle group led by General Hera Syndulla fought Nythlide's Imperial blockades for a week until they had been broken through.

Following the blockades' defeat, Syndulla moved on from the Nythlide Array, leaving two carriers under Major Jaun to support the local militia against the remaining Imperial presence until their operations were finished with. Some of Jaun's forces were redirected to Dybbron III to look for survivors after Syndulla learned of the 204th's genocidal attacks.
