Campaign

Batonn sector insurgency

Canon Linked from 31 articles

An insurgency was fought in the Batonn sector between a coalition of insurgent groups on the planets Batonn, Denash, and Sammun against the rule of the Galactic Empire. The insurgent coalition was led by Nightswan, a shadowy insurgent leader who wanted to overthrow the Empire. The Batonn sector insurgency came to a violent end at the siege of the Creekpath Mining and Refining complex on Batonn. Following Nightswan's death there, the surviving insurgents fled into space. Due to his role in eliminating the rebel presence in the Batonn sector, the Emperor promoted Thrawn to Grand Admiral and placed him in command of the Seventh Fleet.
