The battle
Having rescued Maarek Stele, a member of the Secret Order of the Emperor and ace TIE fighter pilot, Imperial forces set out to locate the fleeing Admiral Harkov. Imperial commanders dispatched Assault Gunboat patrols to locate Harkov among Rebel outposts, presumably taking on supplies after the disconnection from Imperial logistics. Assault Gunboats from flight group Mu located the Protector (the admiral's flagship) after inspecting cargo containers near XQ1 Platform DS 5. Following the reconnaissance of Harkov’s logistical necessities Gunboats Mu proceeded to destroy the precious supplies. As a more remote installation, DS 5 deployed aged Z-95 Headhunters, but also mustered a group of B-wing fighters to intercept the encroaching Imperial scouts. As ordered, the Assault Gunboats proceeded to leave the system upon the arrival of the Protector, easily motivated by the swift introduction of TIE Avengers from Protector’s hangar.
