The Battle of Ession was a conflict between the New Republic and the forces of Warlord Zsinj. Zsinj planned the battle as a trap, using the Pakkerd Light Transport facility on Ession as bait, in order to destroy several squadrons of New Republic starfighters, including Rogue Squadron. However, the crew of the Corellian corvette Night Caller was being impersonated by Wraith Squadron, and the battle was the culmination of the Wraiths' long-standing charade. While Zsinj intended for Ession to be a mission to deal with what he believed was Rogue Squadron, it was in fact a trap designed to destroy the Imperial-class Star Destroyer Implacable, commanded by Admiral Apwar Trigit. The New Republic forces, though outnumbered, had the element of surprise and were able to destroy the Implacable. Furth
