Kroger

OnALegendsArticle

"The Empire is sending one of their best fighter pilots to this location. His orders are simple: terminate our fleet."
―Lieutenant Colonel Aqzow, about Kroger[2]

Kroger was a pilot who served as a major in the Galactic Empire's Imperial Navy during the time of the Galactic Civil War. He was considered a strategic genius when it came to naval warfare, and an excellent pilot. Sometime following the Battle of Yavin in 0 BBY, Lieutenant Colonel Aqzow of Havoc Squadron tasked a Rebel pilot with killing Major Kroger before he could reach the Endor system. To that end, the pilot loyal to the Alliance to Restore the Republic located Kroger in the Dathomir system piloting an experimental TIE Advanced x1 alongside an escort of two TIE/IN interceptors. The Havoc Squadron pilot engaged the Imperials and destroyed them successfully.[2]

Notes and references

  1. ↑ The opening crawl of Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided dates the game to after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, and additionally, Serji-X Arrogantus, who died in Star Wars (1977) 10—the events of which The New Essential Chronology dates to 0 ABY—appears in the game. Therefore, at least a portion of Star Wars Galaxies must be set in that year. Furthermore, in the game Ruwan Tokai references the destruction of the Death Star as having occurred one year earlier, and Strongholds of Resistance also places the events of Galaxies' Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" in 1 ABY. Lastly, while Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" features the Battle of Hoth—dated to 3 ABY by The New Essential Chronology—the developers have stated that the portrayal of that battle in the game is intentionally anachronistic. Therefore, the events of Star Wars Galaxies must span from 0 ABY to around 1 ABY.
