Attempt to capture Outpost 716

In 22 BBY during the Clone Wars, General Grievous of the Confederacy of Independent Systems attempted to capture Outpost 716 from the Galactic Republic. In the end, Grievous's attack failed. As the Sith Lords Darth Sidious and Darth Tyranus, the puppet masters of the war, still wanted the outpost to fall under Separatist control, Tyranus later dispatched his assassin Asajj Ventress on her own mission to Outpost 716, which ended with Ventress successfully destroying the command center.
