Sir we're detecting several craft coming out of hyperspace!
All right, let's make this count. Lothal's depending on us. Remember, the Imperial fuel depot is our primary target.
Presuming we get past this blockade.
They might have numbers, but we've got skill.
That last part goes double for me.
Yes Chopper, triple for you. Lock s-foils in Attack Position
Fighter groups, stay with your wingmen and punch a hole in their defenses. We have to get the y-wings through.
So the rebels have come, at last.
24 ships Grand Admiral, mixed group of fighters and bombers.
Their target will be a factory and the fuel depot in the capital.
Alert all commands; Deploy the fleet in defensive formation and launch fighters.
Commander, the rebels must not reach the planet's surface.
I'll make sure of it, sir.
Here we go. Attack speed!
Phoenix 2 - you've got the wingman.
Already on it general!
Nice shot. Phoenix four and Five, thin out those TIEs at point three.
Copy Phoenix leader, try to keep up Duke.
I'm right behind you.
Good shot!
Stay on my wing.
Watch out, we've picked up three more!
Control systems failing!
Cleat, scissor right! I'll cut them off!
Aaagh!
Syndulla!
My air defenses have been compromised!
I am aware. An impressive level of coordination though, not unexpected.
The factory is vulnerable.
Oh on the contrary, governor. It's quite safe.
I won't allow a single rebel ship through my blockade.
Still no good. He's too fast!
Hang on chop. I've got an idea!
Where are you going?
X-Wing on attack vector!
Skerris, break off your pursuit.
Negative, command. I almost have her!
How unfortunate.
Open fire.
but Sir - Commander Skerris!
-Is playing into Syndulla's hands, now open,
Fire!
He has no shields, we have no shields.
Tighten your bolts, Here we go.
Aaaaaagh!
She got it!
They hit the magazine!
We've brought our opening, this is it; All wings form up and head for the target.
The rebel forces have broken through our perimeter.
Hmm, regrettable, but a testament to captain Syndulla's skill as a combat pilot.
Contact the second wave and order them to intercept.
Phoenix leader, I'm picking up enemy fighters at Point 3
There look, here they come!
what are those?
Is that...
The entire attack force.
You
