During the time of the Galactic Civil War, a significant conflict erupted on the planet of Vendrak V between the forces of the Galactic Empire and the Alliance to Restore the Republic. It all began when Imperial Intelligence disseminated false intelligence, suggesting that a spaceport hangar located on Vendrak V held armaments of great value to the Rebellion. Consequently, two Rebel squads were sent on a mission to seize these alleged weapons, only to find themselves ensnared in a carefully orchestrated Imperial ambush.
