Maneuver 0927 represented a ground-based strategy utilized by the First Order. At some point between the years of 28 ABY and 34 ABY, Commander Kylo Ren gave the order to Captain Phasma to scrutinize the surface of the planet identified as GUHL-JO387O for any signs of Resistance presence. Following the landing and deployment of Phasma and a squad of stormtroopers from their troop transport, she directed her troopers to spread out and execute Maneuver 0927.
The debut of Maneuver 0927 occurred in "Pest Control," which served as the primary narrative within the third issue of the 2017 comic series known as Star Wars Adventures. Landry Q. Walker penned the story, Eric Jones created the illustrations, and IDW Publishing released it to the public on October 18, 2017.
