Opening CrawlEdit

Book VI, Part I
YODA'S SECRET WAR

It is a time of renewed hope for the Rebel Alliance.
but the Galactic Empire continues to hold its
domination and has doubled its efforts to
eliminate any who would stand against its rule.

The Alliance's heroes, pilot Luke Skywalker,
Princess Leia, and smuggler-turned-soldier Han
Solo, have just succeeded in stealing a massive
Star Destroyer to deliver supplies to an ally planet.

However, their success does not come without cost –
Darth Vader enlists a group of ultra-dangerous
stormtroopers, Scar Squadron, to destroy the
rebels. Even though Luke, Leia, and Han escape
victorious, the stormtroopers, humiliated in their
defeat, vow retribution. In order to force another
battle, Scar Squadron turns its focus on its new
prisoner: C-3PO....
