Incursion of Yavin (Infinity War)

The Incursion of Yavin was a large conflict between the Federation of Free Planets and Dark Reach over. The Federation were victorious and managed to liberate Yavin from Dark Reach control.

Prelude
Realizing Dark Reach's capital was located in the, the Federation of Free Planets amassed an army as well as a war fleet, having only a small remainder following the battle of Coruscant, they managed to get a fleet together, joined by the Trandoshan Hegemony and the Galactic Arbiters, as well as the expeditionary forces of the Varino Imperium, led by Taw-Aet Menndal.

The battle
Several Federation of Free Planets warships left over, initially preparing to bomb. The Federation warships moved into position, when Dark Reach forces moved to engage from. Realizing the base was not located on Yavin VII, they moved to Yavin IV, engaging the orbiting forces immediately after.

Dark Reach space defenses prepared to fend off the Federation warships, only to be ambushed by the sudden arrival of naval forces. The defense platform immediately retargetted to the closest warships, however most were neutralized before they could even open fire.

Federation forces, joined by the Trandoshan forces, immediately headed for the planet, engaging the remaining Dark Reach ships. Suddenly, several Imperial Confederation warships left hyperspace over Yavin, immediately engaging both, the Dark Reach and Federation forces in space combat.

With most of the Dark Reach forces being wasted, the remaining space vessels retreated from the battle, leaving the Federation and the Confederation to battle it out. With the Trandoshan Hegemony in place, the Federation slowly gets the upper hand against the Confederation. Akran Zelvden communicated a truce with admiral Crassk's Trandoshan and Federation forces, offering their aid in the following ground battle.

Several Confederation Korr-model dropships, joined by several CVW-220 dropships, touched down on Yavin. The Federation's ground force, while bigger, was slower then the Confederation's, which was only composed of several troopers and several HAT-1As.

The Federation, which had a larger invasion force than the Confederation, landed forces as well, with the ground forces constructing a siege camp with the Confederation's forces. Before the siege camp was even finished, a number Dark Reach ground forces attacked the position of the Federation and Confederation forces, while other Dark Reach warships showed up in orbit to engage the Federation and Confederation ships.

The Federation and Confederation forces managed to fend off the Dark Reach forces, as Aerial Support troopers and Confederate light troopers tracked the remaining Dark Reach forces back to their base.

Discovering the Dark Reach base, the Aerial Support troopers and the light troopers reported back to the in the meantime established siege camp, giving coordinates for the siege camp, as the Federation and the Confederation prepared to attack Dark Reach.

Federation and Confederation forced started to march upon the Dark Reach base, meeting little resistance from Dark Reach forces. Dark Reach spies however, discovering about the Federation and Confederation army, sallied out to meet the two, hoping to be able to fend them off.

The two armies met, facing off eachother in the forces near the Great Massassi temple. The Federation and the Confederation forces immediately opened fire upon the Dark Reach forces. The Dark Reach forces, which were massively outnumbered, mostly fleed or surrendered, with commanders Darth Xaviun and Torven Kark being evacuated long before the ground battle.

With the final space warships and ground troops eliminated, Yavin was claimed as ground for the Imperial Confederation, with the Federation holding no interest in holding the planet, but not willing to return it to Dark Reach, granting it to the Confederation.

Aftermath
The truce between the Federation of Free Planets and the Imperial Confederation ended shortly after the Confederation recieved, with the Confederation soon planning the battle of Yavin VII.
