After the failed negotiations, the Emperor went on the Holonet and informed of what happened. John and the other Special Forces troops were watching the broadcast in the barracks.
- "And so, the Acoleans did not agree with the fair terms. They wanted to govern us and rule our galaxy. We did not agree with that, and so they went to war. The good thing is that their military is small, and now, by capturing their ships, we can have access to the technology that can allow us to go to their galaxies, and maybe others." he said. "The Imperial military is taking action against the Acoleans as we speak, and the war should be won by next week."
The transmission went off. John and the others went back to their bunks and went to sleep. John was surprised to hear that their military is smaller than theirs, even though they have better technology and a bigger galaxy. If what they say is true, then the war should be easy, a specially for the SpecForces.
The next morning, John awoke to see most of the others were awake. The Colonel came in to the room and ordered all of the troops to get down to the hangar bay, where gunships were ready to take them to Corellia, an important Imperial world that was taken by the Acoleans. The squad went down and boarded the gunships, and they took off to the Dockyard and boarded the Imperial-class Star Destroyers to leave. The Star Destroyers carefully navigated past the Coruscant traffic and left into hyperspace.
The fleet came out of hyperspace at Corellia moments later. A small Acolean fleet was gathered over the planet. The Star Destroyers opened fire and destroyed most of the cruisers and oncoming fighters. The rest of the fleet left. Gunships that were filled with troops flew off down to the planet surface. John armed his blaster and got ready for battle.
Soon after, the gunships landed at a small town, which was used as an Imperial base. The troops were greeted by the 1st Special Forces Regiment Lieutenant Snopel. He came up to them and informed the troops of the situation.
- "The Acolean Armed Forces Grunts are holding several positions across the planet. They are poorly defended, and should be easy to take. Understand?" he said.
- "Sir yes sir!" echoed the rest of the troops.
John followed the troops and Snopel to the Imperial transports waiting at the edge of the town. They were also loaded with 1st Regiment soldiers. John and the others boarded and took off towards the main enemy position. If that one was taken out, the others would abandon the planet.
They stopped by the position and disembarked. Grunts that were guarding the perimeter opened fire and the SpecForces took cover. John and several others opened fire, killing most of the poorly armed grunts. The rest retreated, soon to be killed by other SpecForces members. The SpecForces quickly eliminated the grunts on the walls and proceeded to the inside of the base. John and Snopel, along with several others, went down one hall that led to the cellblock, and the others went to the barracks.
After a while of walking, and run ins with grunts, they got to the cellblock. The Imperials blasted the guards quickly and secured the area. A few troopers left and conquered the rest of the base. After a short while, the planet was theirs.
