New Battlefront/narrative

"Like fire across the galaxy, the Galactic Civil War spread. In league with the wicked Darth Vader more and more planets slip. Against this threat, upon the rebel generals falls the duty to lead the newly formed army of the Rebel Alliance. And as the heat of war grows, so too grows the prowess of one most gifted student of the Force, Luke Skywalker." ―Gial's introductory narration

Gial Ackbar explains the situation of the galaxy-spanning Civil War between the Galactic Empire and the rebelling Alliance to Restore the Republic. Battles rage across planets such as Takodana, Astria, and many others. Members of the Rebel Command such as Gial Ackbar, Dustil Forell, Jan Dodonna, Crix Madine, Baccam Grafis, Bard, Davits Draven, Luke Skywalker, and Han Solo lead rebel trooper forces into battle across the galaxy, the Piranhi Isolation League pledges its support to Darth Vader and the Imperial Millitary Army, and Luke Skywalker's abilities in the Force continue to grow.

Gial Ackbar, Han, and Skywalker have a meeting with the revolutionary leader Mon Mothma in her suite on the Rebel base of Dantooine. Han informs the leader that the InterGalactic Council Clan has built huge hidden factories on the planet Orchidia and is producing massive weaponry and warships by mining the ore that is extracted from the roots of the Gamera tree and sending it to their hidden factories that are located on the outskirts of the city, going on to state that they must act quickly.

Mon Mothma concurs, but asks who would be available to lead the mission, seeing as Crix Madine was fighting the Battle of Takodana. Gial Ackbar suggests Han Solo lead the mission, and Han states his army is ready and able to leave immediately. Mon Mothma then suggests Luke take command of Han's space forces during the battle due to his exceptional skills, but Han feels Luke isn't ready for the responsibility, and Gial Ackbaf states that a Padawan's place is with his master. The Mon Calamari admits Luke Skywalker is powerful, and begins to make another statement, but he is interrupted by Mon Mothma, who decides for the group that Luke Skywalker will indeed go, much to Gial Ackbar's and Han Solo's frustration. Han's forces begin loading into several MC30c frigate ships and preparing their A-wing interceptor starfighters as the smuggler considers the challenge ahead, doubting even that the old master Obi-Wan Kenobi could have prepared someone for it. Young Skywalker enters his T-65B X-wing starfighter and takes off with the rest of Han Solo's army. Han waves goodbye to his love Leia Organa.
