This article is about
the raid in 1 ABY. You may be looking for
another Battle of Sullust.
The Raid on Sullust was an operation carried out by Rogue Squadron engineered by Imperial defector Kasan Moor to disable an Imperial station situated inside an active volcano known as the Capacitor. Rogue Squadron battled TIE Interceptors, Turbolasers, Concussion missile turrets, and AT-STs in the fight. The capacitor installation was protected by an elaborate shield transmitter system which projected a shield that enveloped the Capacitor entirely, forcing Rogue Squadron to destroy the transmitter network first. It was a victory for the Alliance, but it was all a trick: While they were fighting here, Moff Kohl Seerdon attacked Thyferra.
Looking to get a little vengeance for Chandrila, Rogue Squadron attacked Moff Seerdon's Capacitor inside of an active volcano on Sullust.
The battle
Edit
The Capacitor was surrounded by a ray shield. Rogue Squadron destroyed several transmitters spread throughout the area that were producing the ray shield. After the shield was disabled, Rogue Squadron targeted the support columns on the Capacitor. When they were destroyed, the structure split into two.
Aftermath
Edit
Although a success, the raid was nothing but a ruse set up by Moff Seerdon himself to draw Rogue Squadron away as he attacked Thyferra.
