STAR WARS DEAGOSTINI FANHOME Trade Federation Battleship Control Ship ISSUE 33 ORIGINAL & NEW

The offer includes a magazine

During the Battle of Naboo, Bravo Squadron, led by Ric Olié, launched from Theed in the hope of taking out the orbital warship Vuutun Palaa. All their efforts proved futile as the ship's deflector shield was too strong for the Naboo starfighters to break through.

Eventually, however, the droid control ship was destroyed when Anakin Skywalker - fleeing a number of droid hunters - flew into the ship's hangar and accidentally destroyed the starboard reactor with a pair of proton torpedoes. The ship crashed in seconds, but Skywalker still managed to pilot his starfighter out of the hangar and escape with the remaining Naboo pilots.

After the Battle of Naboo, the Trade Federation modified the droid control ship along with the standard battleship so that the core ship could separate and land on a planet's surface. This was part of a ruse to fool the Republic into believing that the Federation would dismantle all of its warships.

They were intended to be used in the Clone Wars, when the Trade Federation was absorbed into the Confederacy of Independent Systems. In contrast to the main combat ships, the control ships were not upgraded in terms of weapons. A modified ship with jamming capability was used and destroyed at the Battle of Balamak.

About a year after the First Battle of Geonosis, the RAS Prosecutor went missing in the Chaykin Cluster, leading to the Republic's clone commandos, specifically Delta Squad, being dispatched. Once aboard, the commandos fought their way through the ship and came across a Trandoshan nest that had stolen the ship to sell to the Trade Federation in exchange for weapons and troops. Eventually, a droid control ship arrived to take possession of the ship, whereupon the commandos destroyed the Federation ships with the help of a nearby Republic attack ship. Just like in the Battle of Naboo, once the control ship was damaged badly enough, the droid attackers aboard the assault ship stopped altogether.

Years after the Clone Wars, after the rise of the Galactic Empire and Palpatine's declaration of the New Order, these ships were used by the Separatists. After the declaration of rebellion and the formation of the Alliance to Restore the Republic, at least one of these ships was used by the Rebels in an attack on the Death Star in the early days of the Galactic Civil War.

During the Battle of Naboo, Bravo Squadron—led by Ric Olié—launched from Theed in the hopes that they could take out the orbital warship, the Vuutun Palaa. All their efforts proved to be for naught since the ship's deflector shield was too strong for the Naboo starfighters to break through.

Eventually, however, the Droid Control Ship was destroyed when Anakin Skywalker—escaping from a number of droid fighters—flew into the ship's hangar, and inadvertently destroyed the starboard reactor with a pair of proton torpedoes. The ship went down in seconds, but Skywalker still managed to steer his starfighter out of the hangar, and escape with the rest of the Naboo pilots.

After the Battle of Naboo, the Trade Federation modified the Droid Control Ship, along with the standard battleship, so that its core ship could detach and land on a planet's surface. This was part of a ruse meant to trick the Republic into thinking that the Federation was dismantling all its warships.

They would be used in the Clone Wars as the Trade Federation was assimilated into the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Unlike the main battleship variant, the Control Ships did not get any weapons upgrades. A modified ship with jamming capabilities was used and destroyed at the Battle of Balamak.

About a year after the First Battle of Geonosis, the RAS Prosecutor went missing within the Chaykin Cluster, which resulted in the dispatch of the Republic's clone commandos, specifically Delta Squad. Once aboard, the commandos battled their way through the ship, encountering a Trandoshan nest, who had stolen the ship to sell to the Trade Federation in exchange for weapons and troops. Eventually, a droid control ship arrived to claim the ship, with the result of the commandos destroying the Federation ships with the help of a nearby Republic assault ship. Just like what had happened at the Battle of Naboo, the droid attackers aboard the assault ship had ceased entirely once the control ship was badly damaged enough.

Years after the Clone Wars, after the rise of the Galactic Empire and Palpatine's Declaration of a New Order, these ships were used by Separatist holdouts. Following the Declaration of Rebellion and the formation of the Alliance to Restore the Republic, at least one of these vessels was used by the Rebels in an attack on the Death Star during the early days of the Galactic Civil War.
