During the conflict, the Millenium Falcon gets heavily damaged, forcing the Rebels to locate on a junk planet 'Ord Mantell' to get the Falcon docked for repairs. Along the way, Boba Fett arrives and attacks the Rebels, but is fended off. Sometime later, Renegade Squadron along with a garrison of Rebel forces traveled to the remains of Alderaan, which as described as Col Serra, had a data holocron, incased in phrink, a strong substance that Bail Organa used to encript the information in before the planet was destroyed by the Death Star, strong enough to survive the destruction of the planet. Renegade Squadron manages to help get them out, killing an Imperial Scout who managed to gain access to access logs from the base computer. Despite the victory, Imperials managed to escape the blast and began to attack the Rebel base, forcing them to evacuate.

The story is set just after the Battle of Yavin, with the Death Star being destroyed. The game is mostly told from a series of flashbacks that describe the events all the way up until the Battle of Endor.
