IMC Convoy attacked, "Shining Nebula" destroyed

Date: 291208
Planet: Tatooine/Naboo System/Ord Mantell
Region: Farpoint Valley/Nova Orion Station

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

Two weeks ago, another IMC convoy as beset with troubles. Three ships - the Vigo-class "Crimson Eclipse" of captain Drake, the YT-1300 "Black Menace" and the YT-2400 "TTC-Shining Nebula", set out for the trip from Tatooine to Ord Mantell.

During the rest in the Naboo system, three pirate ships - one X-Wing, one Z-95 and one ARC-170 - attacked. The "Black Menace" was quickly disabled, and the "TTC-Shining Nebula" disabled, then destroyed, with the crew barely able to use their escape pods in time, as seen on the following recording we managed to acquire:



The "Crimson Eclipse" however managed to first elude and then fight off the attackers, and finally escape through hyperspace, delivering the cargo of ore to Ord Mantell's Nova Orion station.

IMC stock fell 2% at the Coronet Stock Exchange, TTC stock fell 5%.
