Battle of Ereidu (AW)

A battle was fought on Ereidu between Alliance Galactic Republic and Coalition CSI during the Alliance War. This event was the beginning of a counterattack organized by CSL-015 in response to Republic expansion campaign, and it was possible only thanks to Ereidu's coordinates given by monarch of Dimor.

Attack over Ereidu
Coalition CSL-015 led 15th Coalition Fleet, an impressive formation in Separatist Navy, directly to Ereidu, which was protected only by an Alliance Republic defensive flotilla. The Coalition immediately won against the small force, but while last ships were being destroyed Alliance reinforcements arrived and Cosmopolitan Fleet attacked the enemy.

Battle over Ereidu
When Alliance Republic Cosmopolitan Fleet arrived thing didn't really change: Coalition Separatists had already deployed some landing craft, while a lot of vessels were blockading the access to Ereidu. The numeric difference put the Coalition in advantage.

The arrival of Master Yoda and his escort of ships gave a breath to Alliance forces, that could organize a dangerous move to allow the General to reach Ereidu.

The Green managed to pass over the blockade with its escort of LAATs/i and Z-95 Headhunters, but the ground was reached only by the frigate and two gunship. Just when arrived, the Green shot down a C-9979 landing craft which had already deployed troops; Yoda and a platoon of troops descended and the ships departed back.
