As the battle rages on, three corvette sized ships decloak between the two remaining MAKs, launching around 250 strange pods at each of them. These pods pierce through the weakened shields and into the outer hull, though they appear to do no further damage. Moments later the imperial fleet receives a message from one of the engineering sections in the sections in the second MAK:
//TRANSMISSION START//
You see an engineer in front of a terminal, with several other crewmen and stormtroopers behind him.
"We have an unidentified enemy on board and we require immediate assistance."
The room shakes as a large pincer pierces through the hull. Both the stormtroopers and the engineers take cover behind a couple of terminals and cargo crates, aiming at the pincer. Everything goes quite for a couple of seconds, before a strange gas is released into the room. While the stormtroopers remain unaffected by this, the engineers start coughing and one by one, sink to the floor, unconscious. After a few more moments, the pincers open and the stormtroopers start firing into the pod. At the same time, the intruders do so as well, taking out the defenders after a few seconds. As the intruders exit the pod, you can get your first real glimpse at them: Their armor is mostly black, with some red symbols and decals, varying from trooper to trooper. One of them approaches the terminal from which the transmission is still being sent, letting a small spider like droid crawl onto it and interface with it. The transmission starts glitching as the droid jumps back onto the troopers hand, presenting a holographic plan of the MAK.
