Martio Batch was one of the twelve original Grand Admirals of the Imperial Navy appointed by Emperor Palpatine two years before the Battle of Yavin.

马铁奥·巴奇曾是帝国海军的海军元帅。他曾是最初被晋升为帝国十二元帅的军官之一，该军阶由帕尔帕丁皇帝在雅汶之战两年之前创制。

An engineer at heart, Batch was not as well-known as Rufaan Tigellinus or Danetta Pitta, as he preferred to keep a low profile aboard his research station, Imdaar Alpha, earning him the nickname "the invisible admiral."

巴奇并不如茹法安·提格利努斯或是丹内塔·庇塔那样有名，他在内心深处仍觉得自己是个工程师，因此他更愿意低调地待在他的研究基地“印姆达α”内，这也为他赢得了“隐形将军”的称号。

Biography

生平

Batch's largest success was with developing a novel cloaking device which used hibridium—unfortunately, this new cloaking device had the distinct disadvantage of working both ways: it was double-blind in that the cloaked ship was invisible to outside observers, but the outside observers were invisible to the cloaked vessel as well. Deeply frustrated at what amounted to failure, he took another path to a useful cloaking device. Batch's original cloaking device plans would not be lost, however. They would be stored in the Emperor's private warehouse at Mount Tantiss, where many years later, Grand Admiral Thrawn would recover them and make brilliant use of them despite the double-blind drawback.

巴奇最大的成功就是开发了应用希波利德水晶的全新隐形设备——不幸的是，这种全新的隐形设备存在明显的双向作用缺陷：这一设备存在双向屏蔽性——在已匿踪的舰只对于外界的观察者来说是隐形的，但外界的观察者对于已匿踪的舰只将是同样隐形的。他因失败的程度而深感沮丧，并选择通过其他途径来制造一种可用的隐形设备。尽管如此，巴奇隐形设备早期计划并未因此遗失。这些计划后来被收藏在皇帝设于坦提斯峰的私人仓库。直到多年之后，帝国元帅索龙在那里发现了这些计划，聪明地避开了双向屏蔽的缺点而将其付诸应用。

Batch turned to older designs, such as those used on Darth Maul's Scimitar. Those devices relied on stygium crystals mined from the planet Aeten II in the Dreighton Nebula, the supply of which had been mined out decades prior to his research. The Grand Admiral took the Tarkin superlaser testbed platform, and in an ironic fulfillment of the Death Star's official justification, blasted the planet into shards, freeing thousands of the crystals.

巴奇求助于更早期的设计，比如应用于达斯·摩尔“弯刀”号上的隐形技术。这些设备依赖开采于德雷顿星云艾登2号行星上的暗水晶，而这些供给在他的研究的数十年之前就已经开始开采。这位帝国元帅占用了塔金的超级雷射试验平台，并在一次充满讽刺的死星官方演示中将这一行星化为齑粉、释放出了千万颗暗水晶。

With a large, assured supply, Batch began experimenting in cloaking all sorts of vehicles to see which combination would maximize combat effectiveness, as his supply of crystals was large but not renewable. Eventually, he settled on outfitting modified TIE/ln starfighters with them, which he dubbed TIE Phantoms. He killed two birds with one stone when he requisitioned the Super Star Destroyer Terror under Admiral Sarn to both guard the rubble of Aeten II and act as his TIE Phantom production facility. The TIE Phantom was developed near the planet Dreighton, under the personal supervision of Darth Vader himself; in combat tests, they acquitted themselves extremely well, defeating almost all their enemies and suffering no casualties. The new starfighters possessed slightly more firepower than production TIEs, and they had a unique feature in that they automatically cloaked in between firing their laser cannons, rendering them invisible during most flight operations. These preliminary successes came to the attention of the Rebel Alliance, and they sent a task force to destroy Terror and end the new threat to the Alliance. Aided by the sabotage of the sole B-wing pilot to face the Phantoms and survive, Terror was successfully destroyed. The Alliance also managed to steal a prototype, although it self-destructed shortly thereafter, rendering it useless.

尽管无法继续水晶的供给，巴奇仍将自己已有的大量水晶应用于试验将所有类型的载具隐形化，以便找出哪一种组合可以最大化战斗效果。最终，他从中选定了改进装具后的隐形钛战机，并将其称为鬼怪型钛战机。他要求调遣萨恩上将指挥的超级歼星舰“恐惧”号，一举两得地既保卫了艾登2号的残骸，又得以将“恐惧”号作为鬼怪型的生产工厂。鬼怪型钛战机是在德雷顿星附近，由达斯·维德本人亲自监督开发的。在实战测试中，这种型号的表现十分出色，在无任何损失的情况下消灭了全部敌机。这种新式战斗机拥有比量产型钛战机略强的火力，并且它们拥有在雷射炮的发射间隔间自动隐形的特色，这一特色赋予该机型在大部分战斗任务均能保持隐形的能力。这些前期的成功引起了叛军同盟的注意，他们派遣了一支特遣部队摧毁“恐惧”号以结束这一新的威胁。一位B翼战机驾驶员成功地在与鬼怪型战机的对抗活了下来。他的破坏使得“恐惧”号最终被成功毁灭。同时，同盟也成功盗取了一架原型机，虽然它在不久之后自毁并成为了一堆废铁。

After this colossal failure, Batch stole the remnants of the forces attached to Terror and fled to the Outer Rim Territories in his personal Imperial-class Star Destroyer. Eventually, his executive officer, blaming him for the loss to the Rebels and the subsequent death of Admiral Sarn, betrayed and executed Batch. The second thereupon joined "Supreme Warlord" Harrsk's fleet deep in the Deep Core.

巴奇在这次巨大的失败之后霸占了“恐惧”号附属的武装力量，并搭乘自己的专属帝国级歼星舰逃往外环区域。结果，巴奇的主任参谋将战败和萨恩上将的死归罪于巴奇，发动叛乱并处决了他。这位副指挥官随即加入了深处于深核区域的“最强军阀”哈斯克的舰队。

幕后故事

Who's Who: Imperial Grand Admirals co-author Daniel Wallace has unofficially suggested that Batch's personal Star Destroyer was named Meniscus.

《谁是谁：帝国元帅》一文的合著者丹尼尔·华莱士曾非正式地建议将巴奇的专属歼星舰命名为“新月”号。
