"This map notes the locations of other major Imperial shipyards and drydocks, as well as key mining centers for metals and ores."
―General Crix Madine, in an official document to Mon Mothma[2]

During the Galactic Civil War, the Ubrikkian enclave was a high-production–level facility located at the Mid Rim Territories' Ubrikkia system. It was among a number of Galactic Empire shipyards, drydocks, and mining centers that Rebel Alliance General Crix Madine marked on a galactic map as potential targets for future rebel offensives, with the map being included with a document sent to the Alliance Commander-in-Chief Mon Mothma.

Description

The Ubrikkian enclave was a Galactic Empire–affiliated facility located at[2] the Ubrikkia system[1] of the Mid Rim Territories' Kastolar sector[3] during the Galactic Civil War.[2] It shared its name with the celestial body Ubrikkia[4] as well as the companies Ubrikkian,[5] Ubrikkian Industries, Ubrikkian Ord Pedrovia, and Ubrikkian Transports.[6]

History

"Once we take out Kuat, these should be our next targets."
―General Crix Madine, in an official document to Mon Mothma[2]
General Crix Madine noted the Ubrikkian enclave as a possible target for the Rebel Alliance.

General Crix Madine noted the Ubrikkian enclave as a possible target for the Rebel Alliance.

In 3 ABY,[7] the Rebel Alliance's 61st Mobile Infantry carried out the campaign Operation Ringbreaker, in which they attacked a number of minor Imperial resource hubs to weaken the defenses of the major shipbuilding hub Kuat Drive Yards for a final attack.[8] While Alliance Intelligence vetted the campaign from afar, Alliance General Crix Madine observed Operation Ringbreaker's early success and drew up a galactic map of other major Imperial shipyards, drydocks, and metal and ore mining centers that the Alliance could target if the campaign was successful.[2]

Included on the map, the Ubrikkian enclave was marked as having a high level of production and an unknown security level. The map was added to an official document on Madine's ideas that was sent to the Alliance's Commander-in-Chief Mon Mothma.[2] The 61st ultimately abandoned Operation Ringbreaker without attacking Kuat Drive Yards,[8] and afterward, the archivist Hendri Underholt included the map in a collection of non-electronic documents called The Rebel Files.[2]

Behind the scenes

The Ubrikkian enclave was introduced in the 2017 reference book Star Wars: The Rebel Files, authored by Daniel Wallace.[2]
