Gavin Darklighter, Riv Shiel, Nawara Ven, Rhysati Ynr, Aril Nunb and Ooryl Qrygg met a group of Alien Combine members in a cantina after a squad of stormtroopers had swept the place collecting Quarren. Horn escaped from Thyne's people by stealing a speeder bike from outside the cantina. When Horn attempted to follow Celchu and the stranger-who Horn believed to be Loor since he was not able to see the individual's face-members of the Black Sun stopped him and called in their leader, Zekka Thyne. He found himself from a cantina called the Headquarters where he observed a meeting between Celchu and a Duros weapons dealer, Lai Nootka. This event and his conversation about Tycho Celchu with Winter gave Horn a lot of things to think about and he decided to clear his head by walking around. While performing their part of the mission Horn, Dlarit and Winter had a close call in the Grand Corridor in the Imperial Palace with Imperial Intelligence agent Kirtan Loor, who would have been able to recognize Horn and reveal their presence in the capital. She later met with Antilles, Cracken and Iella Wessiri in Galactic Museum in hopes to find out what she should do next. Terrik's exit identity was revealed to the Imperials and she could not get away from the planet and was only barely able to avoid capture. Other members of Rogue Squadron were brought in by Mirax Terrik in Pulsar Skate. Upon arrival they met their Intelligence contacts who helped them to take up their new identities. Erisi Dlarit and Corran Horn were traveling together disguised as a Kuat noble and her telbun in the ultra-class aboard Jewel of Churba, while Commander Wedge Antilles and Pash Cracken were on board the same ship in a lower class impersonating Imperial officers. Members of Rogue Squadron were inserted separately or in small groups to Coruscant. " It looks as if Rogue Squadron has done it-they've taken down the planetary shields." ―Beri Tulon to Tyr Taskeen and Brenn Tantor For the pilots they would send, Admiral Ackbar and General Airen Cracken found the Rogue Squadron to be most suitable to perform the mission. Other, more trustworthy, agents were also sent there while some-like Iella Wessiri-already lived on the planet. In an attempt to distract the Galactic Empire they arranged Rogue Squadron to release 16 Black Sun criminals from Kessel who were then transported to Coruscant. Admiral Ackbar, the Supreme Commander of New Republic Armed Forces wanted to send military specialists and starfighter pilots to scout the planet and find possible weaknesses from its defenses. They made several different plans how to conquer the planet but none of them was truly practical and they had to be discarded one after another. The Council decided to move against the capital world, Coruscant. In the latter half of 6 ABY the Provisional Council made the decision to have a covert mission sent to Coruscant to gauge the Imperial presence on that world in preparation for an invasion. To start off the invasion, the New Republic began capturing strategic worlds near the Coruscant system, including Borleias. Coruscant was in the hands of Ysanne Isard, Director of Imperial Intelligence, and with the New Republic realizing the importance of the galactic capital, it was decided that the planet would be captured in order to eliminate the Empire more quickly. Despite Emperor Palpatine's death in 4 ABY at the Battle of Endor, the squabbling Imperial warlords still ruled most of the galaxy. Many citizens died in the resulting Imperial crackdown, and the planet remained in Imperial hands. Upon hearing of the death of Palpatine, citizens on Coruscant-then Imperial Center-staged an uprising, attacking Imperial forces in the streets, setting off fireworks, toppling statues of Palpatine, and desecrating other symbols of the Empire. 2.2 Firefight in Alien Combine warehouse.Orbital Solar Energy Transfer Satellites.Imperial Ruling Council relocated to Orinda.The New Republic sets up a government on the planet.
