The **Invasion of Muunilinst** was a battle between the Array's joint veteran- trained recruit fleet and the defence fleet of mercenaries. The battle was going well until a huge amount of starfighters started overwhelming that of the forces of the Prefsbelt fleet. However, reinforcements arrived and the enemy forces soon arrived.

## Cause

The high command of the Array had been discussing the invasion of Muunilinst for quite some time for the wealth it held. Eventually, the leader himself opted to send his fleet. However, there was poor intelligence so they had to be prepared for anything.

## The Orbital Battle

Due to the unsuspected attack, the two ISDs initially attacking fired ion cannons at one single venator, knocking it out cold. The defence fleet consisting of two venators and three Nebulon Bs, they were attacked by two imperial star destroyers, one of which was the Hydra, a Nebulon B and three Raider-Class Corvettes. The other star destroyer surged for the venators, being fired upon.

Immediately after arrival, swarms of fighters funded by the muun poured out of the carriers as the trio of nebulons fired on the hostile one, as the active venator fired upon the incoming SD. At once the harassed Nebulon B was pulled back behind the Hydra, which fired upon a nebulon B, able to kill it over time. Meanwhile, Aryn Saedrin of the starfighter corp. attempted a bombing run until overwhelmed by a swarm of mercenary fighters and, although less trained, still overwhelming in numbers. The fighters then went on the offensive with the Nebulon Bs, covered by the firepower of the venators. All ties had to fall back while the raider corvettes put pressure on the then-damaged nebulon B from the Hydra's attack. At this point reinforcements were called as civilian and the company heads' ships evacuated from the dark side of the planet. The Hydra went on its broadside to take out incoming torpedo fire. The reinforcements arrived at that moment as the enemy fleet jumped away serving no purpose anymore.

## The Ground Takeover

Commander Thorne shortly afterwards landed his regiment of stormtroopers down to secure the capital. Now under new management, the police force was forced into the Array while maintaining the freedom to enforce justice.

## The Aftermath

This triggered the populace to at first be hostile, but soon enough be tamed and calmed. Banks were overturned and given to the Array, the profits to be sent to the military's funding. However, this triggered the escapee leaders who made a deal with the New Republic, who started the Battle of Muunilinst.
