Light Side Campaign – Rescue General Madine

When the evacuation of Echo base during the Battle of Hoth leads to General Crix Madine being captured by Imperial Snowtroopers before he is able to evacuate, the Alliance takes any measures necessary to follow his path.


GR75 Medium Transport

Scenario 1: Imperial Entanglements

During the Battle of Hoth, Wedge Antilles calls you to help rescue General Madine. The General is currently en route to an Imperial Transport, escorted by a squad of Snowtroopers.

  • Opponents: Captain Jeffren Brek (Imperial) and Snowtroopers

Scenario 2: Aboard the Tyrant

Breaking off from the rest of the Rebel troops defending Echo Base, you head for ion cannon control and speak with Toryn Farr, who commands these weapons. The Tyrant is disabled by an ion blast, and your shuttle easily boards. You battle shipboard Imperial troops to get to the brig and rescue General Madine.

  • Opponents: Namman Cha (Sith) and Navy troopers

Scenario 3: Clash in the Void

While traveling to the Rendezvous Point, your ship, the Mon Calamari Cruiser Champion, is intercepted by the Tyrant and its fighter support. Eager to reunite with the remaining forces from Echo Base, you scramble fighters to fight off the attackers and allow the Champion to escape.

  • Opponents: Captain Xamuel Lennox (Imperial) and TIE fighters.


Twin-Pod Cloud Car

Scenario 4: City in the Clouds

While aboard the Tyrant, General Madine overheard a coded message as he was moved to his cell. Using his knowledge of Imperial protocol, he was determined that the message was ordering the Tyrant to move to Cloud City on Bespin to support an ambush of Rebel forces there. You travel to the city's underworld to meet the contact.

The "contact," an Ugnaught gang, sees the Rebels as more profitable when being turned over to the Imperials. Ambushed by a gang of Ugnaughts!

  • Opponents: Yoxgit (generic) and Ugnaughts


Echo Base Scout

Scenario 5: Hunting the Hunter

The Ugnaught leader's contacts have discovered that the Imperial trap is already well underway. A bounty hunter in the employ of the Empire, Boba Fett, has captured Han Solo and is heading to his ship, pursued by the escaped Rebels! Your team hastily prepares to ambush the bounty hunter and rescue their fellow Rebel.

  • Opponents: Boba Fett (generic) and Stormtroopers

Dark Side Campaign – A Fine Catch

From the Echo Base battlefield on Hoth, Imperial forces have captured the traitor, General Crix Madine. As Rebel forces rally, the Imperials fight off desperate rescue attempts and raids by the rebels. The trail leads from Hoth to the Tyrant, the depths of space and then to Cloud City.

Scenario 1: Secure the Prisoner

During the Battle of Hoth, you accompany a snowtrooper unit assigned to escort the captured traitor General Madine to an Imperial transport. On the way, an elite Rebel team ambushes your unit. You must defeat them and deliver the General.

  • Opponents: Major Coret Bhan (Rebel) and Rebel Commandos

Scenario 2: Report to Captain Lennox

You return to the Star Destroyer Tyrant and report to Captain Lennox about the retrieval operation. While you are being debriefed, the Tyrant is struck by an ion cannon blast from the surface of Hoth. Alarms ring out as a team of Rebels come aboard to rescue the General. You must defend the ship.

  • Opponents: Major Bren Derlin (Rebel) and Rebel Commandos


Force Pull

Scenario 3: Before the Storm

After the Battle of Hoth, the Tyrant received a communiqué from Lord Vader himself. Your orders are to move to the Bespin system and remove a Rebel Diplomat who is attempting to undermine the Imperial negotiations on Cloud City. (Note: Possible to have Vader remark that the player failed to keep the General and that they must not fail him again. Classic ESB Vader.) However, when you confront the 'Diplomat' on the Cloud City docking bay, you are shocked to find that it is a Jedi.

  • Opponents: Rachi Sitra (Jedi)

Scenario 4: Cloud City Police

You head for the criminal underground in the lower levels of the city where reinforcements are needed. Calrissian has betrayed the Empire and sounded an evacuation of the city.

  • Opponents: Lobot (generic) and Cloud City Troopers

Scenario 5: Covering the Extraction
