Background

The Battle of Hoth was a major victory for the Galactic Empire and the single worst battlefield defeat suffered by the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Galactic Civil War. The battle was an Imperial invasion aimed at destroying the Rebel Alliance's Echo Base hidden on the remote ice world Hoth. The base's location was compromised when a Imperial Probe Droid deployed by Darth Vader landed on Hoth. As the Rebels had been trapped, they suffered huge losses, including most personnel, most defenses including the base, most infantry, some starfighters, and over half of the transports. However, some of the Rebels managed to escape.
