Battle of Telti

The Battle of Telti was fought in 21 BBY during the Clone Wars. Republic Intelligence discovered a secret factory below the planet's capital, Teltor City, was producing lethal B3 Ultra Battle Droids. When the Republic's fleet arrived, it was greeted by swarms of Nantex-Class Fighters. The swarm of fighters was quickly pushed back by the Republic, who landed thousands of troops outside of Teltor City. The troops destroyed the visible, ground level factories pumping out B2 and B1 Battle Droids. Undergroud, Clone Commando Delta Squad infiltrated the secret facility creating the B3 Ultra Battle Droids. One of the enormous droids became stuck in the factory's fragile reactor core. The droid overheated, exploded, destroying the reactor and the complex. Delta Squad barely escaped.

Space Battle
Moments after jumping out of hyperspace above the industrial planet, Telti, the fleet of Acclamator Assault Ships, led by Firmus Piett, and sent by the Republic was greeted by thousands of CIS Nantex-Fighters and bombarded with laser fire. The fleet snapped into action, launching hundreds of the superior V-19 Torrent Starfighters. The V-19s easily pushed the CIS fighters back to the planet.

Ground Battle
The Assault ships then made their way to the planet, dropping LAAT/i and LAAT/c ships and thousands of troops, including four ten man ARC Trooper squads. The troops entered the capital city, Teltor City, and destroyed the Battle Droid factories in the industrial centers using AT-TEs and with fire support from the Assault ships above the city.

The Assault ships also managed to destroy the Techno Union Combat Control Offices, located in the Techno Union Tower, thus leaving the CIS forces on Telti with fewer commanding officers.

Meanwhile, below the city, the Republic's elite, four man clone commando, Delta Squad, invaded the B3 Ultra Battle Droid complex and entered a dark corridor. The corridor turned out to a be a secret, subterranean Battle Droid deployment area, with tens of thousands of droids on racks on the walls, ready to be lifted above ground. The droids sensed Delta Squad, and activated, jumping form the racks and nearly killing the commandos.

From the control room in the secret facility, Drinkorrde Vorx, lieutenant administrator of the Techno Union, and Techno Union cheif scientest, inventor of the B3, watched Delta Squad chased by Battle Droids into a room with ten activated B3s. Within minutes, the underground secret factories began to crumble under aerial bombardment.

Vorx's aide tried to get him to leave, but couldn't. His aide left, escaping on a Techno Union Starship. Vorx stubbornly stayed behind, beleiving he could still win the battle. Instead, he died when the complex exploded when his own droids accidentally destroyed the main reactor. He broadcast his last words over the loud speakers in the facility-"My children have taken me to my own grave". Delta Squad managed to escape, hijacking [[starwars:STAP|STAPs] and then fleeing.

By that point, all CIS forces has retreated and surrendered.

Aftermath
Because of the loss of the major factories and foundries on Telti, Darth Sidious contacted General Grievous and sent him to Hypori to prevent the loss of the foundries located there.
