Region: Farpoint Valley/Nova Orion Station
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Earlier this week the Intergalactic Mining Corporation sent another cargo of ore from Tatooine to Ord Mantell. Th cargo was carried in the YT-1300 "Hot Tub"; piloted by Ramona, with Onole' and Falcun Nix acting as gunners, and escorted by Barrenger Fynar in the Dunelizard "Krayt Dancer" and Benjam in "Red Fox", an RGI.
The ships came under attacked by an unidentified Ixiyen assault craft, classified as a pirate attack by RSF later, after entering the Naboo System at the hyperpsace jump point "Sea of Veruna".
The Ixiyen was shot down, as was another a bit later near Penumbra Omen, though the Krayt Dancer needed repairs after the fight and had to be towed to the Naboo orbital station by the "Hot "Tub". Afterwards the the ships continued to Ord Mantell without further trouble.

Imperial Navy takes out rebel supply station
Date: 280810
Planet: Deep Space
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Earlier tonight the Imperial Navy sent a task force to Deep Space to destroy a recently discovered supply station of the Alliance to restore the Republic. The task force ran into strong rebel forces and had to both clear a path to the rebel station for the assault as well as to protect the Imperial Star Destroyer serving as flagship for the operation from the rebel counter-attack.
Despite a costly delay at the start and determinded rebel defenders the Imperial forces were ultimately successful, destroying the station while only suffering light damage to their flagship, though at the cost of several fighters and smaller ships.

Keren taken by Imperial troops and held for the first time in months

Planet: Naboo
Region: Keren
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
For months the city of Keren was under control of the Rebel Alliance, withstanding assault after assault by the Imperial forces. Even when an assault by stormtroopers was successful the imperial forces were soon pushed from the city and rebel control restored.
Today however marks the first time Imperial troops have taken the city and held it against a rebel counter attack, extending the control of the Empire over one of Naboo's biggest cities in bloody close-quarter combat. The focus of the fighting was around one of Keren's canals, where rebel war machines pushed through imperial fortifications and wave after wave of attackers clashed with defenders in at times melee combat. Ultimately though and despite taking heavy losses the imeprial troopers prevailed.

Bomb Incident in the Lucky Despot
Date: 280810
Planet: Tatooine
Region: Mos Eisley
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Last night the visitors at the Lucky Despot casino in Mos Eisley were shaken when a dispute literally exploded into violence. While details are not fully known, an as of yet unidentified zabrak male allegedly ended up in a dispute with several of the patrons and entertainers, and was stunned after drawing a blaster.
When he came to, back in his seat, he threatened the people present with a detonator in his hand, causing a trooper present on the scene to call for reinforcements to handle the situation. When negotiations stalled the zabrak was charged and subdued before he could use the detonator.
However at this point a man later referred to as "Frogoo" threw another grenade at the troopers, severly wounding one soldier and one bystander before getting subdued himself. The reasons for this action are not known, but he was wounded and had earlier already refused treatment by a combat medic present on the scene - ironically, one of the people wounded by the explosion. Who exactly had wounded him - tortured according to some of his claims earlier - is not clear either.
After "Frogoo" was subdued as well and the civilian casualties evacuated the two suspects were taken to the detainment facility in Bestine. All wounded, among them MSG Patryn Starfire of Operational Detachment Aurek 613, are expected to make a full recovery.

IMC convoy struck hard by pirates
Date: 280810
Planet: Tatooine/Naboo System/Corellia System/Ord Mantell
Region: Farpoint Valley/Nova Orion Station
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Five days ago the weekly cargo convoy transporting ore for the Intergalactic Mining Corporation from Tatooine to Ord Mantell was attacked by pirates again. The two freighters, the TTC-Tencilia, a chartered YT-2400 with upgraded guns, piloted by Ramona, with Flar acting as gunner, and Captain Benjam Frail's "Lucky Silver", a converted Decimator-class ship with with Falcun Nix and Myrorra serving as gunners, were escorted by Barrenger Fynar, Neo-Gothic and Ahl-Vinn.
The convoy was attacked in the Tatooine system shortly before making the jump to the Naboo system, and two of the escorts were shot down there already, covering the freighters' escape. The two freighters and the remaining escort, Barrenger Fynar, were not yet safe though - pirates struck in the Naboo system too , managing to disable the "Lucky Silver", which had already suffered damages, and Barrenger's fighter, before chasing the "TTC-Tencilia" until the freighter managed to escape into hyperspace after shooting down a pursuing Y-Wing.
Barrenger Fynar meanwhile assisted Captain Frail, who was drifting and whose crew member Falcun Nix had suffered serious wounds, with his Y-8 class "Celestia Belle", picking up the wounded for treatment in the ship's medical bay, but was attacked in the process as well and barely got away with an emergency jump.

Imperial Fleet secures key positions in three systems
Date: 230810
Planet: Corellia System/Dantooine System/Karthakk System
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Two days ago the Fleet of the Alliance to restore the Republic launched a large-scale campaign to raid several supply lines of the Imperial Fleet by attacking key locations in the Corellia, Karthakk and Dantooine systems.
The Imperial Fleet at once dispatched forces to secure those systems. Seven gunboats, one Decimator patrol ship and over 20 fighters struck at the rebels. The Karthakk and Dantooine systems were easily secured and then held, but the Corellia system saw a pitched battle against locally superiour rebel forces who controlled it and the attacking force suffered serious losses until more reinforcements could be shifted in and the rebels driven off.
With the Corellia system secured as well the main battle was over although mopping up operations continued in Deep Space.

Imperial Navy barely holds the line
Date: 150810
Planet: Dathomir System/Yavin System/Endor System
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Last night the Imperial Navy and the Fleet of the Alliance to restore the Republic clashed in three systems, struggling for key installations in the Yavin, Endor and Dathomir system.
The battle began with a bloody surprise when both fleet jumped to the same hyperspace jumpoint in the Dathomir system, and a brutal close combat ensued, with most ships fighting for themselves and attacking any targets of opportunity.
This engagement was won - if barely and with serious casualties - by the Imperial Task force, which then spread out to cover strategic points in the aforementioned systems, all three which soon came under attack, or were already in control of the recovering rebel fleet.
While the Yavin system was shortly afterwards abandonned, the Endor system remained hotly contested, with each side shifting more and more forces, both captial ships as well as fighter units, there. In the end the Imperial Navy was able to hold the rebel forces at bay, though by the skin of their teeth.

Technical and Pirate Trouble
Date: 150810
Planet: Tatooine/Naboo System/Corellia System/Ord Mantell
Region: Farpoint Valley/Nova Orion Station
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
The weekly cargo convoy tranporting ore for the Intergalactic Mining Corporation from Tatooine to Ord mantell suffered another technical mishap six days ago. Alila Tisoni launched her YT-2400 "Corellia Star", only to discover the ship's hyperdrive was malfunctioning, forcing her to land again. This was quite a setback - the ship had already suffered a malfunction two weeks ago, and had been undergone a thorough check-up at the CEC yards following this.
As it turned out the hyperdrive troubles were too serious to be solved quickly enough to still make the convoy, leaving the "Shiny", a light freighter captained by Waefi Stromchaser and crewed by Glug and Ruff-Ruff, to carry the ore, escotred by two Bellubab-22s, piloted by Giina and Barrenger Fynar, one heavy X-Wing flown by Falcun Nix and a Scyk flown by Ramona.
The convoy was attacked by two pirates in the Naboo system. Barrenger's fighter was heavily damaged and Falcun Nix went missing after his X-Wing was all but vaporized, but the "Shiny" managed to shoot down the remaining pirate and deliver the cargo to the Nova Orion Shipyards in Ord Mantell.

Fleet battle results in draw
Date:080810
Planet: Dathomir System/Tatooine System/Endor System
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Last night the Imperial Navy sent another task force out to search and destroy rebel capital ships. Starting in the Dathomir system the task force soon left for the Endor System after reports of rebel capital ships being sighted there had come in.
This turned into a chase though, and the task force soon found itself back in the Dathomir system, where it finally caught up to a rebel command ship. While an all-out attack was launched and ultimately succeeded in destroying the gunboat, the rebel forces had launched a counter attack, destroying the imperial command ship just as the rebel capital ship was getting crippled.
Afterwards several rebel interictor type crafts were hunted down and destroyed, but no further capital ship kills - or losses - occurred on either side.

Freighter miscalculates jump - sabotage?

Region: Farpoint Valley/Nova Orion Station
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
After last week's mysterous encounter with an unidentified corvette, this week's ore transport from Farpoint Valley, Tatooine, to the Nova Orion Shipyards in Ord Mantell saw another strange event disrupt it.
Alila Tisoni flew her "Corellian Star", with Anyskerr and Ramona as crew, escorted by Barrenger Fynar in his Dunelizard. The transport was attacked by an ARC-170 in the Naboo system, near Penumbra Omen, but handled that easily. Later though a problem appeared: The "Corellian Star" jumped to the Corellia system by mistake.
A check of the navigational systems revealed that a new nav point had been added to the flight plan. While it's not yet clear how this happened some clues point to a coded transmission from Rori as a possible source - or cause.
CEC and CorSec are investigating the incident, but so far have not revelaed any results.

Attack on garrison in Black Sands
Date: 030810
Planet: Tatooine
Region: Black Sands
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Last night a group of armed people attacked the garrison in Black Sands. The stormtroopers present proved to be too tough for the assault though and all attackers were killed in the fight that ensued. As far as is known no civilians were harmed during this incident. Casualties among the stormtroopers were not revealed to the press.
Neither the identity nor the goal of the attackers has been found out so far - or if it has it has not been made public. Rumors claim they wanted to spring an equally unidentified prisoner, and that they were mercenaries, but neither rumor has been substantiated so far. Usually mercenaries do not fight to the death if retreat is possible, and there's been no notice of any important prisoner held in the town.

Task Force Mauler mauls rebel fleet
Date:010810
Planet: Dantooine System/Deep Space
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Last night the Imperial Navy sent a massive fleet - Task Force Mauler, built around 4 YE-4 gunboats and one "Vigo"-class flagship and supported by over 20 starfighters - to the Dantooine system to hunt down rebel capital ships. With the defenders outnumbered and the imperial forces concentrated the Empire's task force soon had the upper hand.
For over one hour the task force hunted down rebel ships, killing several rebel gunboats and fighters, until the remaining rebel forces withdrew to Deep Space. The tak force gave chase however and continued to search and destroy rebel capital ships in Deep Space for another hour. While several starfighters were lost only one Imperial gunboat was shot down during the whole operation.
