Legend

this legendary galactic pirate developed many assault and infiltration strategies which were still in use during the height of the New Order. One of the infiltration methods Nagua developed was adopted by the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War. An agent would enter a building on legitimate business during the day, then find a storage area or other quiet place to hide out until the building closed. This required patience, since many employees tended to work late, so an agent couldn't just pop out without making sure everything was clear. Nagua was also credited with devising the pirate assault tactic known as The Dagger. Also named the Mercevian Nagua Maneuver, this assault required a saboteur to board the target ship and either disable it or seize control outright, then deliver it to the pirate fleet.
