Raid on the Tropsobor During the Galactic Empire ' s Sepan campaign , a combined Dimok and Ripoblus fleet attacked the Imperial " Ton - Falk " - class escort carrier " Tropsobor " as it delivered a shipment of TIE / ad starfighter s to Admiral Harkov ' s flagship , the " Victory I " - class Star Destroyer " Protector " . The attackers were defeated by the Imperial forces . Prelude . The Ripoblus and Dimok governments have been at war with each other , but once the Imperial Navy arrived and intervened in order to bring the two sides to an agreement , they instead decided to team up against a common enemy . After a series of defeats , the Dimok and Ripoblus attempted a large offensive against a TIE / ad starfighter convoy that was supplying them to Admiral Harkov ' s fleet , in order to replace the TIE / LN starfighters and TIE / IN interceptors that were lost throughout the Imperial campaign . The battle . As the TIE / ad starfighters flew from the " Ton - Falk " - class escort carrier " Tropsobor " to the " Protector " , the " Victory I " - class Star Destroyer of Admiral Harkov , Dimok forces launched an assault starting with a MC40a light cruiser called Ben Het exiting hyper space and launched several squadrons of BTL Y - wing starfighter s and Z - 95 Headhunters followed by Modified Corvette Long Tan finally followed by two Cargo ferries Suoi Tre and Can Giouc . Maarek Stele , an elite TIE pilot , engaged the Dimok forces with several other TIE / LN starfighters and interceptors . They fought the attacking fighters to give time for the TIE / ad starfighters to make it aboard the " Protector " . After defeating the enemy fighters and defending the TIE / ad flights AA , AB , AC , and AD , the Imperial pilots engaged the Ben Het as well as the Long Tan , Suoi Tre and Can Giouc , holding of the attacking starships until they were either driven off or destroyed . Soon afterwards the Ripoblus joined the battle with Nebulon - B2 frigate Shemsher with two groups of " Delta " - class JV - 7 escort shuttles , Raven and Seakyte . The Ripoblus faced similar results as their escort shuttles were destroyed and the Frigate was driven off , if not destroyed . Aftermath . When the fighting came to an end a shuttle called Omlaut arrived to board the Protector . Stele inspected it to find the shuttle carrying a high ranking member of the Rebel Alliance . The shuttle boarded the Protector and , according to a member of the Secret order of the Empire , the individual was taken directly to Harkov and they have been alone ever since . Combine this with the chronic shortages of weapons and equipment reported by Harkov , meant that it was clear that he was selling Imperial weapons and supplies to whoever has the credits . Resupplied with new starfighters , Admiral Harkov forced the leaders of the two warring factions to meet him aboard his vessel and make peace agreements , ending the campaign and bringing a decades long civil war to an end . Elite pilot Stele was sent to the Pakuuni system afterwards . Behind the scenes . The battle takes place in the game Star Wars : TIE Fighter . It is on Battle 2 Mission 5 . The canonicity of the mission is debatable as the bonus objectives of the mission in question is the destruction of all enemy spacecraft of both the Dimoks and the Ripoblus . This is extremely difficult as the player pilots a TIE Fighter and likely has to rely on TIE Bombers to help destroy the capital ships in the mission .
