Battle of Kludis (AW)

A battle was fought on Kludis during Alliance War, as part of Republic expansion campaign. Alliance Lupus reached Kludis, knowing that the planet had lost some of its defenses due to the conjunction of Republic's advance and diversion created by Operation: Converge.

Battle over Kludis
Alliance Republic Lupus went towards one of the two Coalition Separatist s, CMUN-109 and CMUN-133; the same one was targeted by a squadron of s, which was escorting six. Two squadrons of s attacked their counterparts, but Republic ships won, with only half losses.

The Lupus destroyed CMUN-109, then attacked CMUN-133. Starfighters and gunships went to the ground, with only a LAAT fallen. The Star Destroyer eliminated the last frigate, while the battle proceeded on the ground.

Attack on Outpost A
Alliance Galactic Republic squads under command of Plo Koon and CC-3636 "Wolffe", including ten Wolfpack men, jumped out of their and reached the ground through jetpacks. They proceeded to Coalition Separatist Outpost A taking advantage of the night and of bad weather and climbed quickly the walls.

In silence they eliminated sentinels and then all forces inside, not very numerous. Plo Koon freed the command point, badly protected, while other men took down anti-aerial turrets. All other outposts but Outpost D had been liberated, so Koon and his force went for that one, from where no signals had arrived.

Alliance Republic s under Plo Koon and CC-3636 "Wolffe" arrived nearby Coalition Separatist Outpost D. There, the Jedi found the presence of two s. Because of them, previous attackers had been spotted and all killed. Plo eliminated the menaces, then then Wolffe and two Wolfpack went to make a diversion.

Remaining troops assaulted the outpost, taking down a lot of droids. But at a certain point s and s surrounded the clones. They keep on fighting, while Wolffe and his fellows had to face three s, that managed to kill one of them. However, they came back to Outpost D and helped Plo and the others to win the battle. But still an outpost was occupied: Outpost F.

Attack on Outpost F
Since Coalition Separatists were surely aware of the presence of stealth infantry on Kludis, Alliance Galactic Republic General Plo Koon moved his remaining forces near Outpost F. He used the Force to throw EMP grenades on top of the walls, then organized a diversion with all his troops firing against sentinels.

In that moment, six remaining s attacked the outpost, taking down AA turrets before they could fire and eliminating droids, vehicles and buildings. With the last outpost freed, Kludis was definitely liberated, because Separatists had had time to prepare only those bases since they had arrived.
