Battle of Abregado
Canon Legends version → Linked from 46 articles
The Battle of Abregado was a naval engagement that took place in 22 BBY, early in the Clone Wars after Jedi General Plo Koon's fleet of Venator-class Star Destroyers discovered Confederate General Grievous' new warship, the Malevolence. As Koon's fleet attempted to contact Republic forces, the fleet was fired upon by the Malevolence ion cannon. The entire fleet was disabled and quickly torn apart by turbolasers. In the midst of the battle, multiple escape pods, including one carrying Plo Koon and a small group of clone troopers, managed to escape the doomed fleet. However, keen on allowing no survivors to inform Republic forces of their fleet-killer, Grievous sent out B1-series rocket battle droids to find and kill the survivors. Picking through the wreckage, they killed multiple clones until they were stopped by Koon with the help of troopers Boost and Sinker. Eventually, the group was located by the Twilight, piloted by Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker and his Padawan, Ahsoka Tano. The ship narrowly escaped the Malevolence's ion cannon and escaped to warn the Republic fleet.
