A skirmish over Naboo occurred when Bravo Flight pilot Rhys Dallows, mercenary Vana Sage, Toydarian Reti, and Feeorin pirate Nym raided a convoy carrying supplies for the Trade Federation's blockade of Naboo.
Prelude
Having joined forces with the Lok Revenants, Naboo pilot Rhys Dallows led them to his home planet to fight the Trade Federation invasion.
The battle
The allied pilots arrived over Naboo and discovered a convoy of Trade Federation Superfreighters loaded with munitions. The pilots were engaged by Vulture droid starfighters, and the raiders were forced to defend themselves. Almost overwhelmed, Reti infiltrated one of the freighters after Vana Sage disabled it. The Toydarian was able to program a wing of Scarab-class droid starfighters to assist the raiders. The droids responded to _targeting information forwarded to them by Sage.
Three Lupus-class missile frigates arrived to destroy the freighter that Reti had infiltrated, but were quickly held off and destroyed by the raiders. Droid escape pods launched, but they were also destroyed by the raiders. More fighters engaged the raiders, but eventually the entire convoy was destroyed, including the captured freighter, denying the Trade Federation Droid Army its supplies.
Aftermath
Having dealt with the convoy, the pilots went down to the surface. Dallows and Reti would deliver supplies to the resistance while Nym engaged the Droid Army head-on.
