This is a brief description of the first campaign battle report of a Corellian Conflict campaign a friend of mine and I are playing.  As I am the Imperial player in the campaign, it is told from the perspective of the Empire.  Draw your own conclusions as to how the game went.

Terrorist Attack at Drall System!

In a surprising incident in the Corellian Sector, Rebel terrorists mounted an assault against civilian targets at the Drall System. The Imperial Navy, commanded by Admiral Motti rushed to the aid of the beleaguered citizens of Drall. Admiral Motti boldly led his Imperial Star Destroyer against a Rebel MC-75. Both ships were supported by several smaller ships and starfighter squadrons, creating a chaotic battle space where fronts constantly changed direction. While the Rebels fought with the fanatic vigor of zealots, they were no match for the Imperial Navy. While Motti’s fleet suffered the casualty of one ship lost, the IN was able to inflict triple the losses on the Rebels.

With the conclusion of the battle leaving the Rebel terrorists to lick their wounds, Motti’s fleet went on to refit and repair. Several members of the fleet were also singled out for recognition and, in a particular case, promotion in the wake of Imperial victory.

Focus on an Imperial Hero

You might start calling her the Hero of Drall. Aquia Yarvis, commander of a Raider II in Motti’s fleet, met with particular success in the battle. Her deft maneuvering and gunnery enabled her ship to catch an opposing vessel unawares, and with repeated shots landed true, destroy it. In an interview with the Imperial Press Corp, Lieutenant Commander Yarvis described the success of her ship.
“It is my crew that deserves the credit. Their repeated practice in gunnery and quick response to my maneuvering commands, enabled us to maximize the ability of our small

ship. The crew placed our ship into the right place to use our disposable capacitors to extend the range on our initial shot and then move in for the killing blow”.

Lieutenant Commander Yarvis received a battlefield promotion to Commander for her action at Drall and retains command of her Raider.
