An Imperial fleet takes control of a space station in the Caluula system
CALUULA SYSTEM - After a series of hard-won naval battles, the Empire takes control over the Caluula system. Plans for the blockade and pacification of the Calamari sector are on schedule to proceed.
After much preparation in wargames between Imperial line commanders, the Caluula system - a strategic system connecting the Calamari sector to civilized space - was liberated from Rebel control by Imperial Navy. Meanwhile, various Rebel warlords came to blows with one another over control of petty personal fiefdoms in local systems.
Primary responsibility for the victory lay with Lord Darth Vader himself, who assumed command of the operation to retake the critical system. Initially leading and flying escort for the Pakuuni sector TIE Bomber Wing, Lord Vader took command of the final battle from the bridge of the Imperial-class Star Destroyer Overlord.
Aside from Rebel fractiousness, the victory at Caluula is also said to be the result of a campaign of distraction, ordered by Lord Vader. Rebel fleet elements were lured into neighboring systems, distracting them from Caluula's defense. The Rebellion was eager to prevent Imperial Navy elements from bringing humanitarian aid to local citizens, and attempts at providing such humanitarian aid was used as an enticement to draw out the Rebel forces.
Imperial commanders were quick to add that the humanitarian aid was their primary mission, and any drawing out of Rebel units was nothing more than a side benefit.
In the final battle for Caluula, Lord Vader's ship, the Overlord led a battlegroup of Gladiator-class star destroyers and one Raider-class corvette to secure a space station near the primary hyperspace transfer point. By the time Lord Vader's battle group arrived, the station was only protected by a refurbished Calamari luxury liner refitted with turbolasers.
The presence of the refitted Calamari luxury liner is being taken as evidence that the Mon Calamari have thrown in their lot with the Rebellion. It was a development expected by Imperial strategists, but one the people's of the Calamari and Quarren homeworld will doubtlessly learn to regret.
While some of the Gladiator-class star destroyers were lost in the battle, the lives of their crews were an honorable sacrifice for the cause of returning peace and stability to the region, and they will ultimately serve the goal of liberating the Calamari sector of their marine-life oppressors of the Dac system.
