This engagement takes place after the X-wing starfighter entered service with the Alliance to Restore the Republic, which The Essential Guide to Warfare dates to 1 BBY. In addition, the capture of Leia Organa occurs at the end of Star Wars: Empire at War. Organa's capture takes place on 35:3:3 under the Great ReSynchronization dating system, placing it at the beginning of 0 BBY according to the following explanation. Missions of Empire at War after the X-wing's introduction therefore take place between 1 BBY and 0 BBY but 1 BBY is more likely.
