"Who's Who: Imperial Grand Admirals" — Star Wars Insider 66 establishes that following Martio Batch's assassination, his crew joined the newly-formed splinter kingdom led by Blitzer Harrsk. As The Essential Atlas establishes that Harrsk's splinter faction was formed in 4 ABY, the assassiation of Batch and the subsequent assimilation into Harrsk's faction must have taken place around that year.
