- ↑ "Rendezvous Point" establishes that the battle at Distilon took place after the defection of Wedge Antilles and Derek Klivian and prior to Klivian's death during the Battle of Hoth. Star Wars Helmet Collection: Wedge Antilles Highlights of the Saga: Leaving Skystrike dates their defection to 2 BBY, while Star Wars: Galactic Atlas places the Battle of Hoth in 3 ABY. The battle at Distilon must have therefore taken place between those years.
