The battle
Edit
Alliance Commander Narra and his droid K-3PO devised an ingeniously simple tactic to defeat Imperial forces. The Rebel fighters exploited the fact that these ships had to get close to the battle to deploy their TIE fighter squadrons, thus making them vulnerable. The Alliance starfighters ganged up on the larger, slower ships, and subsequently destroyed them.
Aftermath
Edit
This defeat led to the development of escort carriers.[1]
