Unidentified Trade Federation base

A base with a fortress was built by the Trade Federation on the moon Alaris Prime. It was constructed between 39 BBY and 36 BBY during the Trade Federation's illegal colonization of the moon. The base was maintained by OX9 labor droids and commanded by SRAM-13. The base hosted several military buildings, including a troop center, a mech factory, and an airbase. It served as the main source of Federation activity during their war with Wookiee colonists for control of Alaris Prime. In the final conflict of the war, the Battle for Alaris Prime, the fortress inside the base was targeted by the Wookiee leader Chewbacca to rid the moon of the Trade Federation presence.

Chewbacca and the Wookiees constructed their own base near that of the Trade Federation and orchestrated their defense, facing attacks from SRAM-13's battle droids and starfighters. Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn recommended the Wookiees focus on destroying the fortress to achieve their goal on removing the Trade Federation from Alaris Prime, and personally joined the Wookiees on the ground to see it done. The colonists built up their army to include pummels and starfighters, which they used to bring down the base's defenses to let their infantry in. The pummels razed the fortress, and the Wookiees secured their control over Alaris Prime.
