Mon Calamari Revolution (2 BBY)

The Mon Calamari Revolution was an attempt in 2 BBY to free Mon Calamari from the Galactic Empire. The revolution was not a single battle, rather it was three different ground actions and one space battle. The first ground battle was a humiliating loss to the Empire, after a minor space battle which lasted merely minutes a second ground battle began as the Empire deployed AT-STs, TIE Maulers and Stormtrooper companies in an attempt to find the Rebels and wipe them out for their victory which caused embarrasment for the Empire, they too were defeated. The final battle was when the Emporer himself personally led a force of AT-STs, stormtroopers and TIE Maulers and he corrupted many Rebels to fight for him. With the Emporer's powers the Imperials crushed the revolt.

First Ground Battle
A squad of 12 AT-STs was on patrol when they came under fire from Mon Cal rebels and their Rebel allies. The squad followed the direction they had come and discovered Mon Cal Dwellings garrisoning the rebel troops. As the AT-STs launched attacks on the Dwellings they spawned many Mon Cal rebels, though they were only armed with pistols and only did damage because of their numbers. Whilst the AT-STs were attacking the Dwellings and killing the Mon Cal rebels Rebel PLEX troopers barraged the AT-STs with missiles from behind. Although it was 12 AT-STs against 6 PLEX troopers there was beavy rain at the time which greatly reduced the AT-STs' accuracy, several AT-STs were lost before the PLEX trooper squad was destroyed.

With the PLEX troopers dead the AT-STs returned their attention to the Dwellings and Mon Cal rebels, they killed all of the rebels and destroyed their dwellings. The AT-STs then headed for the Rebel base and further Dwellings and crush the revolt. However the AT-STs were ambushed by Anti-Vehicle turrets, PLEX troopers, Rebel troopers and lots of Mon Cal rebels. Although the AT-STs held their own and killed many rebels the rebels outnumbered them too much and one by one the AT-STs were destroyed.

Space Battle
To ensure that the Empire could not bombard the rebels from orbit a Rebel ship was stationed over Mon Calamari to prevent an Imperial fleet from getting into position for an orbital bombardment. However the Rebels did not have enough ships to create a fleet which was destined for destruction so they only deployed a token force - one Nebulon-B escort frigate and one squadron of X-wings. Knowing that they faced only one frigate and 3 fighters the Imperials decided to give the task of destroying the Rebel ships to a local anti-Piracy squadron of 6 Tartan-class patrol cruisers. The Tartans moved in to attack the Nebulon-B but were strafed by 3 X-wings, the Tartans, being anti-starfighter cruisers made very short work of the X-wings.

The Nebulon-B engaged the Tartans and was surrounded, under fire from all sides the Nebulon-B quickly took heavy damage and was destroyed though not before destroying a Tartan. With the Nebulon-B destroyed the Rebel presence above Mon Calamari had been destroyed, the battle had only lasted 3 minutes.

Second Ground Battle
Whilst the space battle was taking place a force of AT-STs and TIE Maulers had been deployed to root out the Rebels and destroy them. The moment they entered the area where the patrol had been attacked they came under attack from Mon Cal rebels.
