Synopsis

Rogue Squadron is sent to track down a lost Bothan ship full of innocent civillains; victim of a rare computer bug that transposes spatial corodinates. They soon learn that the mission is far more complicated. Wedge Antilles is shot down and presumed dead. The wild, savage humanoid natives are armed with Imperial blasters. Most everyone is acting completely out of character.

The Rogues must work with the Bothans to simply survive, rescue Wedge and discover the source of the strange energies making everyone off-kilter.
