More attacks on the IMC Convoy

Date: 271108
Planet: Tatooine/Naboo System/Ord Mantell
Region: Farpoint Valley/Nova Orion Station

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

Three days ago, the Naboo system again became the location of an organized pirate attack. The weekly IMC Convoy - this week consisting of Captain Trini'dy's YT-1300 "Lawless Rogue" and the Nova Courier "CMS Loco" of Captain "Slick" Charlie - was ambushed by a TIE Interceptor variant, most likely a deserter of the Imperial Fleet, and an older ARC-170. The pirates damaged the engine and reactor of the "CMS Loco", disabling her, but her crew managed to conduct in-space repairs while the "Lawless Rogue" lured the pirates away. The following footage shows the fight:



After the destruction of both pirates, the "Lawless Rogue" and the "CMS Loco" continued their flight to Ord Mantell, despite the Nova Courier having suffered severe damage to the hull. After the cargo of ore was delivered, the "CMS Loco" was repaired at the shipyards of the station.

IMC stock rose 1% at the Coronet Stock Exchange.
