However, the only portion of the game that has been declared non-canon is the trench run by Rookie One. This has led to confusion for some over its canonicity for instance, with regard to Rookie One making a trench run against the Death Star, or a battle occurring on Hoth prior to the Death Star Assault. Star Wars: Rebel Assault was produced at a time when there was less strict attention paid to ensuring games were in continuity with the rest of canon. They take place near and on the Death Star where the player has to destroy turrets, stop a gigantic laser gun and finally destroy it in place of Luke Skywalker.
The final missions follow the actions of the Blue Squadron (Ironically Blue Squadron was the original script Red Squadron of ANH fame), simultaneously to the Red Squadron shown in the movie. The player eventually guides Rookie through the training on Yavin 4 preparing the attack on the trench run prior to the Battle of Yavin. The story then leads the player to the ice planet Hoth, where Rookie will have to stop the AT-AT walkers with a snowspeeder and then escape the Gamma Base (which resembles Echo Base) firing his/her way through the Stormtroopers in a sequence that reminds of the Battle of Hoth, escaping from the planet just before it is destroyed by the Death Star. The Rebel base is destroyed and Mos Eisley receives an attack with AT-ST's which the player has to wipe out. Rookie then joins a squadron to intercept the Devastator and after the mission is over they descend back to the planet in order to stop an Imperial assault on Tatooine. The whole game happens during the events of A New Hope and begins with his/her flight training in the Beggar's Canyon, some hours before the Devastator captures Tantive IV above Tatooine. Who like Luke Skywalker, is a farmboy or farmgirl from Tatooine (the player can choose the gender) who decides to join the Rebel Alliance. The game follows the adventures of an unnamed young person known under the handle of Rookie One.
