ON THE FRONT LINES
The Battle of Hoth
The rebels are on the back foot on the
planet Hoth, as the Empire strikes back
after their defeat at Yavin. Their
ingenuity stalls the oncoming AT-ATs,
but they are forced to flee the icy world.
Key Moment: It’s all over for the rebels
the moment General Veers gets close
enough to attack their main generator.
With nothing to power its energy shield,
the rebel base is a sitting duck.
The Battle of
Scarif
Fomented by a small
group on the ground but
joined by an impressive
and organized fl eet in
space, this is the battle
that cemented the
Rebellion as a genuine
threat to the Empire.
Key moment: The bravery
of many unknown soldiers
is on show as the rebels on
the Profundity succeed in
getting the plans away
from Darth Vader and onto
Leia’s ship, the Tantive IV.
