A battle was fought on Fessern during Alliance War. Alliance bounty hunter Boba Fett had undertaken a mission to the planet to capture Coalition admiral IAD-093 and to interrogate him about Skatt Route Blockade. As a result, Alliance Galactic Empire attacked the Route's planets, and among them Fessern, also to evacuate the bounty hunter.

Alliance Imperial-class Star Destroyer Shiva attacked Coalition's one, IIMP-172, and thanks the help of three squadrons of TIE line fighters and two Gozanti-class cruisers, Jungle and Fever, and also with the advantage of starting firing from a better position, managed to win. Three Lambda-class shuttles and a squadron of TIE/LN fighters descended to Fessern and, after taking down an enemy Gozanti-class cruiser, IGOZ-133, landed in two points: near Boba's position and in front of government palace.

Four squads of stormtroopers, aided by a pair of AT-STs, liberated the government palace having half losses, but succeeding in the aim. Two squads and a same number of walkers reached Boba, which put IAD-093 in safe aboard the Lambda-class shuttle; then they proceeded through the city, killing a lot of stormtroopers, until the hunter noticed an AT-AT placed as a huge turret in a big square. They moved there.

The four-legged walker destroyed one AT-ST before Boba elaborated a great plan: he made the Jungle distract the AT-AT and, while he was covered by stormtroopers and the remaining AT-ST, he fled to the top of the behemoth and placed some explosives on its neck. Then he jumped away and made the bombs explode, destroying it. As the main defense fell, Coalition forces surrendered and Fessern became Alliance property.
