Battle of Mon Calamari

Mon Calamari was the next stage in the Imperial campaign, and was a major Imperial victory. New Republic defenses were tough, but with the superlaser of the Death Star, the Imperials were able to destroy the Calamarian shipyards and incur massive damages on the Republic fleet and the planet itself.

The lost of Mon Calamari, a major planet in the Republic, was a huge blow to the Republic, in terms of morale and strategic purposes. With Mon Calamari secured, the Empire moved on with its campaign, next targetting Sluis Van.
