Battle of Rishi (Clone Wars)

Legends Canon version → Linked from 10 articles

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

A battle was fought in 20 BBY on the planet Rishi during the Clone Wars. After Confederate Geonosian warriors captured Rishi's Exonium mines, the Galactic Republic sent the clone trooper division Green Company to repel the invaders. Without a Jedi General's leadership, Green Company's clone troopers could not defeat the Geonosians, who had heavily entrenched in the mines. However, Jedi Master Kit Fisto soon arrived and formulated an attack plan, which involved him using his lightsaber to deflect clone sharpshooter 2242's blaster shots into the enemy. Using this strategy, Fisto and 2242 managed to kill all Geonosians who guarded the canyon leading to the mines, allowing Green Company to initiate an assault on the mines themselves.
