The Attack on Duma's forces was a battle between the Galactic Republic and the reconstituted Sith Empire that took place in 3639 BBY during the Galactic War. Republic Navy captain Duma attempted to rally the Republic fleet to ambush the Empire's top pilots, but was killed in a preemptive strike by the Empire's Fury.[4]
The battle
The Imperial Empire's Fury squadron surprised captain Duma and his fleet as it was preparing its own ambush in the Unknown Regions, entering the system almost on top of a trio of Thranta-class corvettes, damaging them heavily. The Imperial fighter squadron weaved through the asteroids in the system, defeating starfighters that were sent to intercept it and eventually destroying the bridge of Duma's flagship, a Valor-class cruiser, killing the Republic captain. By the end of the battle, the majority of Republic forces were crippled, with at least four Thranta corvettes being confirmed destroyed entirely.[4]
Behind the scenes
Duma Strike is an Imperial Heroic space mission in Star Wars: The Old Republic. The system in which the battle takes place is never specified but the games galaxy map places the encounter in the northern part of the galaxy, northeast of Dantooine and possibly in around grid square M-3.[4]
