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

In 20 BBY, during the Clone Wars, Jedi General Saesee Tiin participated in a space battle alongside a Republic fleet that consisted of Venator-class Star Destroyers and ARC-170 starfighters. Aboard his Eta-2 starfighter, the Jedi Master engaged three Confederate tri-fighter droids in the midst of the conflict. The droid starfighters overwhelmed Tiin, forcing the Jedi to remain on the defensive. Tiin was saved from death by the timely arrival of Jedi General Anakin Skywalker, who destroyed the droids with his starfighter's laser cannons.
