__NOTOC__
The second Task Force of the [[Fourth Fleet]] - designated as '''Task Force 42''' - is a military unit structured for the independent operation of various battle groups, each employing a broad variety of battle tactics.

It was established three years after the Battle of Endor, with a mandate to harass, disrupt, and otherwise unbalance Imperial operations and shipping in the southern quadrant of the [[Mid Rim|Mid]] and [[Outer Rim Territories]]. This area of operations is broad, potentially incorporating everything from the [[Arkanis Sector]] to [[Endor]], and encompasses several major shipping routes like the [[Corellian Run]], [[Rimma Trade Route]], [[Hydian Way]], and [[Corellian Trade Route]], and major systems and sectors such as [[Eriadu]], [[Sluis Van]], and the [[Greater Javin]].

The Task Force is commended by General [[Dan the Man|Dan]], a long-standing veteran of the [[Rebel Alliance]]. However, the Task Force rarely operates as a cohesive unit, and each battle group generally operates independently. Commanders of these battle groups include Captains [[Soto Terius]], [[Dou'lesa Grov]], and [[Rhinn Ikthoos]].

=== 421st (Dauntless) Battle Group ===

General Dan has a large command ship (''Dauntless'') with a large fighter capacity. He focuses on a mostly open warfare approach and typical naval tactics, using his numerous fighters - as well as his escorts - as part of flanking operations.

'''Ships''':
* [[MC80 Star Cruiser]] -- ''[[Dauntless]]'' (FLAG)
* [[Vindicator-class Heavy Cruiser|''Vindicator''-class Heavy Cruiser]] -- ''[[Egality]]''
* [[Dreadnaught-class Assault Frigate|MK 1 Assault Frigate]] -- ''[[Badger]]''
* [[MC30c Star Frigate]] -- ''[[Dodonna]]''
* [[EF76 Nebulon-B Escort Frigate]] -- ''[[Nimbus]]''
* [[EF76 Nebulon-B Escort Frigate]] -- ''[[Starchaser]]''
* [[Assassin-class Corvette|''Assassin''-class Corvette]] -- ''[[Brigand]]''

'''Fighters''':
* ''Dauntless''
** 2 x [[RZ-1 A-Wing Interceptor|A-Wing]] Squadrons
** 1 x [[RZ-2 A-Wing Interceptor|A-Wing II]] Squadron

** 2 x [[B-Wing Assault Fighter|B-Wing]] Squadron

** 2 x [[T-65B X-Wing Starfighter|X-Wing]] Squadrons

=== 422nd (Destiny) Battle Group ===

See: ''[[Destiny Battle Group]]''

Captain Terius has a formation inspired by the hunting strategies of predatory arthropods such as scorpions. He uses two heavy cruisers as "pincers" to flank his opponent and prevent escape, while a fast attack ship acts as the "sting", dealing swift damage to critical areas. Terius is considered somewhat unorthodox in that his command ship (''[[Destiny]]'') is not the largest nor most heavily armed ship in his battle group.

'''Ships''':
* [[Arquitens-class Light Cruiser|''Arquitens'' Light Cruiser]] -- ''[[Destiny]]'' (FLAG)
* [[Dreadnaught-class Heavy Cruiser|Dreadnaught Heavy Cruiser]] -- ''[[Aurora (Dreadnaught)|Aurora]]''

* [[Liberator-class Cruiser|Liberator Cruiser]] -- ''[[Adaris]]''

* [[DP20 Corellian Gunship|DP20 Gunship]] -- ''[[Sebrus]]''
* [[CR90 Corvette]] -- ''[[Oran]]''

* [[Marauder Corvette]] -- ''[[Novgorod]]'' (on detached duty)

'''Fighters''':
* ''Aurora''
** 1 x [[RZ-1 A-Wing Interceptor|A-Wing]] Squadron
* ''Orion''
** 1 x [[RZ-1 A-Wing Interceptor|A-Wing]] Squadron

** 1 x [[B-Wing Assault Fighter|B-Wing]] Squadron

=== 423rd (Nemesis) Battle Group ===

Captain Grov has a force of fast and powerful ships that are geared towards ambushes and hit-and-run missions. They pursue and chase any survivors, aiming to ensure that word does not get back to Imperial command.

'''Ships''':
* [[Munificent-class Star Frigate|''Munificent''-class Star Frigate]] -- ''[[Nemesis]]'' (FLAG)

=== 424th (Requiem) Battle Group ===

Captain Ikthoos also deploys on hit-and-run raiding missions against convoys and small formations, but uses his sizeable fighter compliment to swarm the enemy (using fighters like B-Wings and Y-Wings) rather than engaging ship-to-ship.
