Raid in the Rudrig system

The Raid in the Rudrig system was a Rebel raid on a broken freighter, Ars Opus, for R2 Units that the Rebel Alliance desperately needed. This was later discovered to be Imperial bait.
==Prelude==
Alliance to Restore the Republic's Ordnance and Supply Command put out an alert that the reserve of R2 units were dangerously low. In response the Rebels started a priority search for R2 units.
A previous scout mission located a freighter carrying R2 units had broken down with a failed hyperdrive system in the Rudrig system.
==The Raid==
The Rebels sent 3 R-22 Spearheads from Red Squadron and a Lambda-class T-4a shuttle, Rescue Riker. The shuttle contained a boarding party to capture the freighter.
During the raid, an unknown group of pirates also made an attempt at the freighter and it's R2 units.
==The Aftermath==
The Rebels obtained their much needed R2 units, however they turned out to be a plant by the Empire in an effort to capture personnel belonging to the Rebellion.
