Battle of the Gem of Alderaan


The Battle of the Gem of Alderaan unfolded on Alderaan following the conclusion of the Clone Wars.

The battle

This conflict ignited when Trandoshan mercenaries launched an assault on the recently inaugurated luxury repulsortrain, known as the Gem of Alderaan, with the initial aim of abducting Senator Bail Organa. Upon discovering his absence, their focus shifted to capturing Lady Alya Aldrete. They forcibly entered the Decadence nightclub, a venue located within the train, while a separate group of Trandoshans successfully seized Aldrete. However, Alderaanian Resistance operatives, discreetly present on the train, alongside the stormtrooper guard assigned to Imperial Governor Morrax Nabin, who was also a passenger, mounted a counter-offensive. Subsequently, a contingent of Trandoshans, accompanied by an SD-6 Hulk infantry droid, attempted to breach the cashier's area within the train's casino car, but Nabin, the Alderaanians, and the stormtroopers successfully thwarted their efforts. They proceeded to storm the dining car, where they overcame a number of Trandoshans who were holding passengers hostage. The Trandoshans then deployed CloakShape fighters, which strafed the train with laser fire, nearly causing a catastrophic derailment. The Alderaanians subsequently launched an assault on the control car, where they eliminated the Trandoshan commander and secured Aldrete's release. Sirona Okeefe arrived in the Banshee to extract them, and they escaped moments before the train crashed. The Banshee then engaged an ILH-KK Citadel-class civilian cruiser, the vessel used by the Trandoshans for their arrival.
