Ton-Falk

Ton-Falk was a celestial bodyStay on Target located in the Ton-Falk system, a part of the Pakuuni sector in the Slice portion of the Outer Rim Territories. It was situated on the Overic Griplink hyperspace route, which linked it to the Florn and Pakuuni systems.
At some point between 2 BBY and the time shortly after the Battle of Yavin,Imperial Sourcebook, Second Edition the Battle of Ton-Falk of the Galactic Civil War was fought over Ton-Falk. The battle was an embarrassing defeat for the Galactic Empire due to the loss of an entire Imperial Navy battle group to a small number of Rebel Alliance starfighters, and it led to Kuat Drive Yards designing the Ton-Falk-class escort carrier for Imperial use.
==Behind the scenes==
Ton-Falk's name was introduced via a mention of the Battle of Ton-Falk in Greg Gorden's 1989 Imperial Sourcebook that was published by West End Games for use with Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game.Imperial Sourcebook "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star, How I Wonder Where We Are," a 1990 roleplaying game source article published in the thirteenth issue of the Voyages SF magazine, described Ton-Falk as a location. Since that article was released outside of the Lucas Licensing process, its canonicity within the Star Wars Legends continuity was never confirmed.
Stephen J. Sansweet's 1998 Star Wars Encyclopedia subsequently provided the first unambiguously canonical description of Ton-Falk being a location in Star Wars Legends,Star Wars Encyclopedia and the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas by Daniel Wallace and Jason Fry placed it on a galactic map in grid square T-5. Ultimately, Stay on Target, a 2014 sourcebook published by Fantasy Flight Games for use with the Star Wars: Age of Rebellion line of Star Wars Roleplaying products, more firmly established Ton-Falk as a distinct celestial body. "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star, How I Wonder Where We Are" also placed Ton-Falk in the Heterkus sector, but the StarWars.com Online Companion to The Essential Atlas overrode that placement by establishing that the Ton-Falk system, and therefore the celestial body, was part of the Pakuuni sector instead.
