SUMMARY
Inertia has given the crew of Big Titty Cruiser a contact on the planet Ryloth. Ryloth is known for their large spice mining operations producing ryll and other ingredients used throughout the galaxy. The team lands on Nabat Spaceport and meets up with the Twi'lek female contact B'ura B'an who leads a militant group of freedom fighters and holds a political ranking for mining rights on the planet. The group is informed of a gang of extortionists under the hire of Gretchan the Hutt is terrorizing a local mining village. They are tasked with protecting the village and eliminating the threat.
Village leader O'Brin Dor provides information on the 13 thugs that raid and pillage the mining community. He also provides a guide to aid the comrades on a scouting mission of the Hutt encampment by the name of Doq.
Before heading on the scouting mission, the group pulled together and purchased a shipment of heavy blaster pistols to arm the village in the aid of defending themselves upon another Hutt attack.

Ryloth Star Wars Rebels Ahsoka
'It is a rough road that leads to the heights of greatness.'
Synopsis:
While launching a surprise attack against the Separatist blockade that surrounds Ryloth, Ahsoka disobeys Anakin's orders and ends up losing most of her squadron. But Anakin helps her learn to persevere, placing her in charge of another risky attack soon after.
Analysis:
Ahsoka's first command may very well have been her last if not for the unwavering support of a teacher who believed in her even when she stopped believing in herself. But that's what the best teachers do: they guide those who follow by example, they know when to lead the charge and when to sit back and observe, and they foster growth and independence sometimes through some very hard-won lessons with resolute confidence in their students.
The loss of Blue Squadron is a tragedy no matter how you look at it. If Ahsoka had obeyed orders sooner, perhaps a few more lives would have been spared. But as Anakin reminds her, it was a trap and she and her squadron were outnumbered.
The reality of being in charge is that sometimes you make the wrong call. And the reality of being at war is that sometimes you lose and that costs soldiers their lives.
But instead of allowing Ahsoka time to wallow in her shame and feel guilty about letting her squadron down, Anakin tosses her right back into the fight, leaving her not only in charge of the next risky maneuver but also entrusting her with his life. There is no greater vote of confidence in her abilities than a plan that ends with Anakin floating, defenseless in an escape pod, counting on Ahsoka and her men to keep him safe and ultimately rescue him.
By believing in her ability to emerge victorious, to shake off the self-doubt and take on the new mission with purpose and resolve, Anakin gives his Padawan the gift of regaining her confidence. There's no time to waste on their sorrows when only a bold strategy will do. And if anyone can come up with a plan that is both fearless and inventive, it's the student who has been watching Master Anakin Skywalker, a Jedi whose reputation precedes him.
Ahsoka will face many trials, she will be pushed to her limits and have her very nature scrutinized by the people she trusts. And this is the foundation of all that will come after, the moment that Ahsoka learns how to persevere in the face of crippling loss. For there is no victory without sorrow, no strength found without first knowing weakness. Ahsoka will become a great leader in her time, but first she must fail. As Yoda says, 'The greatest teacher, failure is.' And Anakin is exactly the master she needs to become the Togruta she was meant to be.
Intel:
- Ahsoka Tano's tactical plan closely resembles a strategy used by Grand Admiral Thrawn in a novel from the Legends series.
