"The Rise of the Rebellion and the Battle of Yavin" represents the nineteenth installment within a collection of canon reference guides, part of the broader Star Wars Encyclopedia series, with its release occurring on March 9th, 2021.
The Rebel Alliance's deepest anxieties were validated by the destruction inflicted upon Jedha, Scarif, and, most tragically, Alderaan: the Galactic Empire had constructed a formidable battle station known as the Death Star, possessing unprecedented power. Following the daring theft of the battle station's schematics, the Rebellion initiated a high-stakes assault on this Imperial superweapon. Their sole prospect for success hinged on exploiting its singular vulnerability, situated within the reactor core.
Within the French translation of "The Rise of the Rebellion and the Battle of Yavin," an inconsistency arises concerning the Imperial officer Cassio Tagge's military rank. Initially, he's noted as Major General, subsequently altered to Grand General, a title Tagge wouldn't achieve until post-Battle of Yavin. Conversely, in the US publication, Tagge is first introduced as a Grand General, later referenced as a High General.
