The **Battle above Ryloth** also known as the **Assault on Ryloth** was a battle that took place on the Planet Ryloth during the Great Sith/Jedi War between The New Sith Empire and Jedi Rebel Alliance. When the New Sith Empire would send an Imperial Fleet to destroy the Rebel Defensive Fleet to in order to launch an invasion of the planet, they would engage in a battle above the planet with Rebel Fleet and soon as the Rebel Fleet began to falter and were soon surrounded. A Distress call would soon be sent to the Base on Takodana and Rebel Reinforcements lead by New Squadron Leader Sara Ravenna would be sent to aid the Fleet and would successfully defend the plant forcing the Imperial Fleet to flee as the Rebel Forces began to overrun them.

## **The Battle**

In 16ABY, The New Sith Empire would decide to launch an invasion of the planet of Ryloth, A massive fleet would exit hyperspace and began to their assault on the Rebel Defensive Fleet sending their Tie-Bombers defended by Tie-Fighters which began to perform bombing runs on the Rebel Fleet and began to take out their Blockade runners. As the Imperial Fleet began to their attack on the Rebel Fleet, the Rebels would begin to unleash their fighters and bombers to assault the imperial Forces who quickly unleashed squadrons of Tie and Sith Interceptors that began to intercept the rebel fighter and bombers and began to wipe them out. A Rebel Cruiser would be destroyed by Tie-Bombers, as the Imperial Fleet would quickly surround the Rebel Fleet and would slowly begin to whither them down as a Rebel Ship would quickly send out a distress call which would reach the Rebel Base on Takodana. Rebel Leader and Jedi master Kenith Dellis and Rebel Command would organize a Squadron and Fleet led by Now Brave Squadron Leader Sara Ravenna which would then jump into hyperspace to the Planet, after exiting hyperspace and arriving over the Planet, Sara would lead the Rebel Reinforcement Fleet to attack the Imperial Fleets and they would quickly unleash their fighter and bombers that began bombing runs on the Imperial Fleet. The Imperials quickly unleash waves of fighters and interceptors that began to overwhelm both Rebel Fleets, Sara then quickly ordered the Rebel Squadrons to follow her and lead the squadrons into an asteroid field followed by the waves of Imperial Fighters and Interceptors which would be almost completely destroyed in the asteroid field as Sara, her Squadron and other Rebel Squadrons were battling with the Imperial Fighters and Interceptors. The Rebel Fleet would send out a signal for more reinforcements and a 2nd Rebel Fleet would exit hyperspace and both Fleet would begin to decimate the Imperial Fleet and would soon send out an elite Squadron of Rebel Bombers that would bomb the Captial ship and after it would soon be destroyed and with overwhelming waves of Rebel Fighters, the Imperial Fleet would quickly retreat, and Sara and her Squadron would jump back to Takodana.

## **Aftermath**

After the battle, Sara would be promoted and become Commander of all Rebel Squadrons and would also begin to train and command new recruits and trainees. The Imperial would continue operations in the Outer Rim against Ryloth and several Skirmishes would occur between the Rebels and Imperials on and around the Planet and system through the war until 23ABY.
