Battle of Kinyen (Cail's Empire)

The Battle of Kinyen, known by the Grand Alliance also as Operation Mincemeat, and referred to by the Sith as the Disaster at Kinyen, was a major space and ground battle in orbit and on the surface of the planet Kinyen, the homeworld of the Gran species. It was a major battle in the Galactic Civil War, and the first major defeat suffered by the Infinite Empire of the Sith in that conflict, albeit with heavy losses suffered by the Grand Alliance as well. The battle was also notable for a duel between Sith Lord Darth Xyster and Jedi Grand Master Luke Skywalker, who was later assisted by former Jedi and ILFS agent and general Tal Vyrr.
