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

The Comet Run Day Battle was a battle between the Tusken Raiders and the farmer Orrin Gault's Settlers' Call Fund group. Believing the businesswoman Annileen Calwell to be a Force-sensitive Airshaper, the Tusken leader A'Yark attempted to kidnap her from her business Dannar's Claim. However, the Tuskens encountered opposition from the local settlers including a disguised Obi-Wan Kenobi.

After sustaining casualties, the Tuskens were forced to retreat after Annileen activated the Settler's Call transmitter. A'Yark and her warriors fled to Hanter's Gorge in an attempt to reach their camp in the Pillars. However, Gault's settlers encircled them and killed numerous Tuskens including A'Yark's youngest son A'Deen. Kenobi convinced A'Yark and the surviving Tuskens to escape. Gault regarded the Comic Run Day Battle as a victory and used it to encourage more settlers to subscribe to his Settlers' Call Fund.
