Imperial Depot (Barton IV)

An Imperial Depot, nicknamed "The Outpost" by its squad, was situated on a mountain on the planet Barton IV. During the early Imperial era, Lieutenant Nolan, CT-9904 "Crosshair," and at least three clone troopers were given a mission to secure high valued cargo crates from local raiders.

Upon arrival, the squad was attacked by local raiders leading to Nolan ordering Crosshair and Mayday, the clone commander of the squad stationed at the depot prior to Nolan's arrival, to secure two cargo crates that were stolen during the raiders attack. Crosshair and Mayday managed to locate and eliminate the insurgents, however they failed to retrieve the two cargo crates, which they discovered contained TK stormtrooper gear. When the two clones returned to the outpost, Nolan refused to help Mayday with his injuries, leading to Mayday’s death. This infuriated Crosshair, causing him to shoot and kill Nolan. Crosshair was then detained and sent to Doctor Emerie Karr for observation.

The Outpost was then abandoned by the Empire, and Clone Force 99 later returned to Barton IV to decrypt Nala Se’s datapad, which Omega had stolen while imprisoned at Tantiss Base on the planet Wayland.
