Battle of Ziost (Rise of The Sith)

The Battle of Ziost, was a battle between the CIS and the Sith Empire/Galactic Republic forces on the Sith world of Ziost, this also serves as the base for the Sith External Navy.

The CIS led by Trench and the Mandalorians, however the Imperial and Sith garrisons managed to hold off. Until reinforcements arrived. Empress Rey Papalatine reached out the Republic and Jedi, who though skeptical at first which encouragement from Supreme Chancellor Sheev Papalatine, a Republic strike force arrived on Ziost however the Imperial/Sith didn't allow the Jedi into the darker ancient parts of the planet.

The Battle
The Imperial/Sith garrisons managed to hold off the initial CIS droid/mandalorian assault, killing numerous mandalorian warriors, and destroyed numerous battle droids.

The Sith Empire sent additional legions of Sithtroopers, and Stormtroopers, including the 510th Legion, and the 60th and 88th Legion. They also sent additional warships and sith battledroids. The Galactic Republic, was not sure how to proceed but Senator Pademe met with Darth Imperius and the Republic agreed to reactivate the Treaty of Coruscant, and the Jedi agreed to return all sith artifacts to the Sith Empire and return control of Korriban to the Sith.

The Republic deployed the 501st and 212th and Anakin Skywalker and Obi-wan Kenobi to aid the Sith/Imperial forces. When the Republic arrived the Sith was heavily engaged with the CIS forces and the fleet was forced to retreat with heavy causalities. This allowed the Republic and Sith Forces to concentrate on the ground battle and left the CIS with no air cover, which allowed Sith TIE LN starfighters, TIE LNB bombers, and Sith assault fighters to strafe, and bomb the droid defensive positions while All Terran Armored Transports and All Terran MegaCaliber Six walkers used their high visibility and firepower to pin the Droid tanks down preventing them from assisting, the Death watch forces which were attacked by Sith warriors, students and acolytes,when they tried to seize the sith academy, which had a strong defensive position and was built on a hill overlooking a Imperial Ordinance depot.

Clone troopers struggled fighting on the planet, monsters and creatures that were unleashed to assist the students at the sith academy, were giving them a hard time also the Clones couldn't understand the sith troopers who due to trust reasons used the ancient sith language as a means of communication between their forces.

Also the Clones didn't trust droids as seen when Torrent company was rescued by Jet Stormtroopers and Sovereign Protectors backed by a legion RX-10 "Sith" Battledroids. Though the droids proved superior to their Separatist counterparts in terms of hand-to-hand combat and long range combat.
