Legend

this Imperial Star Destroyer, under the command of Captain Nalgol, was one of only thirteen that remained under Imperial control ten years after the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn. It was assigned to lead the task force, comprised also of the Ironhand and the Obliterator, to travel under cloaking devices to Bothawui and hide among the comets that were passing through the system during the height of the Caamas Incident. From this position, they were to await the destruction of Drev'starn's shield generator before beginning their attack. The ships would fire from their hidden position, with the intent of drawing the multitude of New Republic warships gathered there into an all-out civil war. However, Carib Devist noticed that there were several small prove ships that moved into and out of sight when they passed near the comets, and was able to alert the Republic of their presence. Once the battle was joined, Han Solo managed to get many of the Bothan clans to supply warships from their personal fleets. The three Star Destroyers were forced to retreat to Bastion or be slowly picked apart by the New Republic. Captain Nalgol gave the order to retreat, ending the blockade and bringing to a close the Caamas Incident.
