Kashyyyk planet, surface.

The Galactic Empire's ground forces were launching an assault on a Wookiee city. Under the fire cover of ten massive AT-AT walkers, tens of thousands of Stormtroopers in white armor advanced toward the settlement behind 2-M heavy hover tanks.

The AT-AT walkers commanded the high ground, their twin-mounted Turbolasers in their heads firing continuously. Their devastating firepower blasted the Wookiee firing positions hidden within the jungle to pieces.

Yet the Wookiees resisted with determination. They hid among the trees and beneath rocky outcrops, firing back with their own bowcasters. In the skies, Wookiees piloted their locally produced flapping-wing aircraft, whose low-altitude performance was exceptional, and launched wave after wave of aerial strikes against the Imperial Stormtroopers.

They outnumbered the Imperial Stormtroopers several times over, and every Wookiee warrior possessed immense strength. Their tough, thick fur could resist the heat of Blaster rifle fire to a certain extent, and coupled with muscles like rock, both their speed and strength far surpassed ordinary human limits.

This was a confrontation between flesh and steel. The Galactic Empire had clearly suffered losses in earlier battles and had learned its lesson. All combat operations now relied on its powerful armored forces. AT-AT walkers provided fire support, AT-ST walkers served as localized strongpoints, and 2-M heavy hover tanks continuously pushed through... Such tactics left the Wookiees' formidable individual combat prowess with no room to shine. After all, even the Indjori, known as the strongest fighting species in the Milky Way Galaxy, could not withstand Turbolaser fire.

In the sky, two Acclamator-class assault ships hovered at an altitude of 10,000 meters above the ground. Their firepower was even more devastating, and no Wookiee combat group dared expose itself in the open.

TIE/LN light fighters ravaged the skies, using their advantages in speed and maneuverability
