Battle of the Black Bantha


The crew of the Millennium Falcon discovered that a large amount of the Vong fleet had not yet refuelled or restocked, and was in effect acting as a harmless decoy. This allowed Sovv to ignore that portion and concentrate on the main threats. Although one quarter of the New Republic fleet ended up being destroyed, in the end the Vong ships were destroyed or scattered. Additionally, a Jedi force under Luke Skywalker managed to capture the fleet's yammosk for the Yammosk Action.

Behind the scenes


The battle at the Black Bantha Nebula first appeared in the novel The New Jedi Order: Star by Star. The New Jedi Order Sourcebook mentions the battle in its Star by Star section, but erroneously states that it occurred at Reecee rather than the nebula.
