Defense of Murkhana City

The defense of Murkhana City took place in 19 BBY, during the Outer Rim Sieges of the Clone Wars, in Murkhana City on the planet Murkhana, which had been the site of conflict over the course of the war through a battle nine months into the war in 21 BBY and a prolonged bombardment campaign. Targeted by the Galactic Republic, the Confederacy of Independent Systems and Corporate Alliance defended the city, Murkhana City having the Corporate Alliance headquarters, with the operations commanded by Magistrate Passel Argente. The defensive received additional support from the Vibroblade Brigade, a mercenary group occasionally contracted by the corporation for protections and other operations, including guarding the city. The Vibroblade Brigade patrolled the Murkhana streets. Clone troopers of the Grand Army of the Republic fought in the battle. The clones Neyo and Muzzle mentioned the defense of Murkhana City and the clone army's presence among with other battles in the Outer Rim Sieges, in the survival compendium "Neyo's Almanac of Clankers." Neyo warned potential reinforcements to Murkhana the Vibroblade Brigade was particularly skilled and to be careful.
