Pallaxides



Pallaxides was an ice planet in the Outer Rim Territories used by as a resort world for it's employees. It was guarded by a garrison of snowtroopers, courtesy of the Galactic Empire.

In 1 ABY, the Alliance to Restore the Republic attempted to liberate the world from Imperial control. Kyp Trasidar was a snowtrooper lieutenant stationed there, and led Blizzard Force in fighting back against the Rebel troops. Their invasion failed, but the Empire took heavy casualties.

Much later, the planet was liberated by the New Republic, as the elite Blizzard Force was rotated off world a long time ago and replaced by less experienced troops.
