- "What would be the best approach?"
"Aerial strikes in Cawa City, I think, at the manufacturing district and away from civilian areas." - ―Leia Organa and Crix Madine
A well-popluated city was the capital of[1] the Mid Rim[2] planet Sterdic IV.[1] In 4 ABY,[3] in the aftermath of the Battle of Endor, Princess Leia Organa carried out recon of the planet, which included mention of the capital and the planet's manufacturing district, where the Galactic Empire had a pre-existing presence.[1]
Later, Organa, Rebel Alliance leader Mon Mothma and General Crix Madine discussed how the Rebellion would deal with Imperial remnants or their potential covert bases of operations in the Outer Rim. Madine suggested Sterdic IV as an obvious choice for an Alliance target, with which Organa agreed, mentally noting that her recon told her as much. She then asked the general what the Alliance's best approach would be, to which Madine answered carrying out aerial strikes in Cawa City within the manufacturing district and away from civilian areas.[1]
Behind the scenes
