IMC Convoy reaches Ord Mantell after inspection

Date: 110809
Planet: Tatoo System/Naboo System/Ord Mantell
Region: Nova Orion Station

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

Yesterday the regular cargo convoy from Tatooine to Ord Mantell had to make a stop on Naboo for an inspection by the RSF. The convoy, composed of the YT-2400 class "TTC-Tencilia" flown by captain Inaera Kell and a converted Decimator piloted by Zeus, was escorted by a Bellubab-22 piloted by Nauvasheena' and an older Y-Wing flown by Ravane.

The convoy's crew gathered in Farpoint Valley, moving from Jailbirds to the IMC Headquarters, and shortly afterwards took off from Tatooine.

The convoy had barely entered the Naboo system when it came under attack by pirates. The raiders usually attacked alone though, which made them easier opponents. While approaching Naboo the ships shot down an A-Wing and an ARC-170, but both escorts took damage, which prolonged the stay on Naboo.

After the cargo was deemed safe by authorities and the escorts had been repaired the convoy continued to the Ord Mantell system, where another ARC-170 attacked and was shot down by the escorts after getting disabled. Neither freighter took damage and the cargo was safely delivered to the Nova Orion Station.



IMC shares rose 5 % at the Coronet Stock Exchange following the news.
