The Raid above Corellia was a minor skirmish during the Galactic Civil War over Corellia.

PreludeEdit

After hearing of Han Solo's success at rescuing Chewbacca and a number of Wookiees earlier on Kashyyyk, Mon Mothma strived to contact him to help the Rebellion's investigations about the the Death Star. They eventually found him caught in a Star Destroyer's tractor beam over Corellia.

The raidEdit

The rebels sent a small fleet in the system to rescue him. While the Rebel fleet attacked the Imperial-class Star Destroyers, the Y-wings moved in to disable the tractor beam of the command Star Destroyer. They eventually managed to destroy it before it could reach the Cardan-class space station. The Millennium Falcon escaped and hyperspaced out of the system.

AftermathEdit

Captain Raymus Antilles later personally recruited Han Solo and Chewbacca, despite Solo's reluctance, to assist the Rebels in a raid on an Imperial research facility over Corulag. Solo was hired to plant a tracking device and EMP in one of the cargo containers bound for the research station.
