STAR WARS

The Dark Five

One year and six months have passed since the destruction of the Death Star and the battle of Yavin IV. Though they were considered great victories, the fight for freedom started by the Rebel Alliance has only just begun. The Empire immediately took action by putting all major planetary systems under martial law. Moving from desolate planet to desolate planet, the Rebellion strives to great lengths to gather their numbers and prepare for the next attack, or an attack from the Empire itself.

In order to combat the Empire's most elite pilots, the Rebel Alliance formed the Rogue Squadron, a band of pilots led by Luke Skywalker. Mission after mission, the Rogues continued to foil the Empire's tyrannical plans. The Rogue Squadron's most recent mission involved the world of Gerrard V, a planet with hopes to gain independence from the Empire. General Danal, who was involved in the project to defeat the rebel pilots, has diverted his attention away from the Rogue Squadron in order to steal the belongings and riches of the inhabitants of Gerrard V.

Displeased with Danal's actions, Emperor Palpatine took steps in order to deal with the general, along with Skywalker's Rogue Squadron. Little do the Rogue Squadron and the Rebel Alliance know that their battles are going to become more difficult than anything they could have possibly ever imagined…
