Imperial forces storm rebel base on Yavin IV

Date: 240908
Planet: Yavin IV

Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).

Four days ago, the armed forces of the Galactic Empire conducted a massive attack on Yavin IV. By all accounts, it was a planetary assault on a rebel base in an abandonned temple.

The rebel alliance put up a strong blockade, but could not prevent the first wave of the troop transports of the strike force from making planetfall. The assault forces quickly rallied on ground, and rapidly took the objective, defending it against multiple assaults by rebel ground forces.

Rebel starfighters and capital ships continued to control Yavin's orbit, engaged with less numerous imperial fighters and capital ships. Thanks to the efforts of the navy pilots however, curcial reinforcements managed to reach the forces on ground depsite the heavy blockade, and after an hour, the rebel space crews were called down on the ground and sent into battle as additional infantry. But not even then could the rebels dislodge the imperial troopers from the objective.

The following footage was released by the Imperial Navy, showing the last minutes of the battle in space:

Seems like y'all have been keeping busy for the last few years.

Ramona's still dancing, Neutron Pixies still going strong?

I got a little nostalgic and decided to check back in with some of the old scenes.

It's good to see some things haven't changed.
