Tython detachment

Canon Linked from 6 articles

A detachment of stormtroopers, who served in Moff Gideon's faction, was dispatched onto the planet Tython with the mission of capturing the Force-sensitive foundling Grogu in 9 ABY. Led into battle by a Stormtrooper Captain, the detachment was largely made of up of regular stormtroopers, but one artillery stormtrooper was also part of the deployment. After suffering heavy causalities against the Mandalorian bounty hunter Din Djarin, Master Assassin Fennec Shand, and former bounty hunter Boba Fett, the surviving stormtroopers retreated back to their V-82 dropships. A rocket shot from Fett wiped out both transports, eliminating the rest of the detachment.
