The Battle of Zhar was a skirmish between the Galactic Empire and the Bavinyar Avengers.[1]
The Battle
The Empire destroyed one of the carriers, but the two dreadnoughts fled. Gilad Pellaeon initially ordered the Salvation to pursue, but as the dreadnoughts went around Zhar's moon, the Valediction joined the chase as well. Once he did so, the two dreadnoughts were quickly overwhelmed. The Iconoclast was forced to jump to lightspeed as soon as it cleared the moon's gravity well, and much of Twin Suns Squadron barely made it back to the ship's hangar in time.[1]
Aftermath
After the battle, Pellaeon send crews to aid the damaged Salvation.[1]
