The mission to Eadu was a mission undertaken by the Rebel Alliance to the planet Eadu![](MyCollection_Unit_Eadu.jpg) | EaduPlanet | to capture Galen Erso. The official plan was for Cassian Andor![](MyCollection_Unit_Andor, Cassian.jpg) | Cassian Andor(Human)CharacterMajor Characters | and Jyn Erso![](MyCollection_Unit_Erso, Jyn.jpg) | Jyn Erso(Human)CharacterMajor Characters | , aided by former Imperial droid K-2SO![](MyCollection_Unit_K-2SO.jpg) | K-2SO(KX-series Security Droid)CharacterDroids | to capture Galen. Unbeknownst to Jyn, Andor had received additional orders from General Davits Draven![](MyCollection_Unit_Draven, Davits.jpg) | Davits Draven(Human)CharacterSupporting Characters | , head of Alliance Intelligence, to assassinate Galen on the spot, fearing Galen was critical for Imperial superweapon project.Although things were going along the original plan at first, after the U-wing![](MyCollection_Unit_UT-60D U-Wing Starfighter.jpg) | U-WingStarshipStarfighter Models | LMTR-20, the ship the group was using at that point crashed because of the rainstorm and the harsh conditions of Eadu, a worried Draven launched Blue Squadron![](MyCollection_Unit_Blue Squadron (Rebel Alliance).jpg) | Blue SquadronOrganizationRebel Alliance Navy | that had been kept ready as a backup plan. However, Draven had failed to realize that the group, although unable to communicate, could be in the strike zone.Meanwhile, Andor had taken defected Imperial transport pilot Bodhi Rook![](MyCollection_Unit_Rook, Bodhi.jpg) | Bodhi Rook(Human)CharacterSupporting Characters | on a supposed "look around" to complete his mission undistrubed by Jyn, who he believed would try to stop him from killing her father. However, Jyn deduced Andor's true intentions due to K-2SO off-handedly noting he switched his weapon in sniper mode before leaving, and Chirrut![](MyCollection_Unit_Imwe, Chirrut.jpg) | Chirrut Imwe(Human)CharacterMajor Characters | sensing the Dark Side influencing his current actions. She went after him with Chirrut and Baze Malbus![](MyCollection_Unit_Malbus, Baze.jpg) | Baze Malbus(Human)CharacterMajor Characters | not far behind her.Just as Andor arrived at the spot, the director of the project, Orson Krennic![](MyCollection_Unit_Krennic, Orson.jpg) | Orson Krennic(Human)CharacterSupporting Characters | , accompanied by a unit of Death Troopers![](MyCollection_Unit_Imperial Death Trooper.jpg) | Death TrooperOrganizationGalactic Empire Military | , arrived at the planet to investigate a possible leak within the facility's science staff. He then ordered for the scientists to be brought out and ordered for the mole responsible for leaking the Death Star![](MyCollection_Unit_DS-1 Orbital Battle Station.jpg) | Death StarStarshipSpace Stations | plans, threatening to execute the entire staff if the one responsible failed to comply. Galen ultimately admitted he had been responsible, although Krennic nonetheless decided to have the science staff, save for Galen, murdered anyway.Before Andor could fire at Galen, he noticed Jyn on the landing platform, and a signal from K-2SO, who had contacted the Alliance, alerting him that the Alliance had sent a squadron. Andor replied that Jyn was in the strike zone was there, and to call off the attack, but it was too late - the squadron, consisting of X-wings![](MyCollection_Unit_Incom T-65 X-Wing Starfighter.jpg) | T-65 X-WingStarshipStarfighter Models | and Y-wings![](MyCollection_Unit_BTL Y-Wing Starfighter.jpg) | BTL Y-Wing StarfighterStarshipStarfighter Models | had already entered the planet. Although the base dispatched its fighter screen to defend the base, it ultimately was unable to stop the Rebels from launching a salvo at the main base that resulted in its destruction, as well as Galen being mortally wounded from the resulting bombing, dying just as Jyn made it up to the landing platform. Krennic ultimately evacuated from the base just as the attack had been commenced. Captain Feroph![](MyCollection_Unit_Feroph.jpg) | Feroph(Human)CharacterMinor Characters | , via a TIE Reaper![](MyCollection_Unit_TIE Reaper.jpg) | TIE ReaperStarshipStarfighter Models | attack lander, managed to evacuate from the base as the Rebel forces attacked.Read more... |
