Opening Crawl
Siege on Dantooine! The Rebellion is crumbling under attacks by ruthless General Veers. There are bounties for finding rebels. Evil is everywhere. In a stunning move, the fearless commander, Darth Vader, has swept into the Rebellion's capital on Sullust and kidnapped Princess Leia and Luke Skywalker, leaders of the Rebellion. As the Imperial Army attempts to flee the besieged planet with their valuable hostage, Han Solo and Chewbacca lead a desperate mission to rescue the captive twins...

Battle over Sullust
It has been a year since the events of A New Hope. The Rebellion is in the midst of the epic war with the Empire under the leadership of Emperor Palpatine, who is also the Sith, Darth Sidious. Their military leader, Darth Vader of the Imperial army has infiltrated Sullust and captured Luke and Leia Skywalker, leaders of the Rebellion.

As the fleet attempts to escape the Galactic capital, a massive space battle erupts, into which race Jedi Grand Master Yoda and a disguised Han Solo leading a mission to rescue the two. The two fight through the Imperial armada. In the process, Yoda's interceptor is damaged by buzz droids and his astromech, R4-P17, is destroyed. Han attempts to shoot the droids off, though succeeds only in blasting apart the wing of his vessel. Yoda tells Han to hold his fire as he's not helping. Han Solo agrees it was a bad idea. Yoda tells Han to go on and rescue the leaders, but he says he won't leave without Yoda. Han Solo uses one of his fighter wings to knock some of the buzz droids off Yoda's fighter, but one manages to crawl onto Han's ship although it is quickly disabled by R2-D2.

The Airship Duel

The two reach the top, finding the captives. They are confronted by Darth Sidious himself, and an intense lightsaber/blaster duel ensues. The two throw the Emperor off guard, by converting from basic attacks to more skilled tactics. During the battle, Yoda is rendered unconscious when Sidious uses the Force to hold him in mid-air by the throat before hurling him against a railing.

Han continues the battle by using the force to grab Yoda's lightsaber, and is repeatedly taunted by Sidious. Using his anger, Han taps into the force, and gets the better of the duel.
