Anakin Skywalker led Torrent Company 2 through Izzy City while Republic forces overwhelmed Onderon’s defenses, but he grew furious when Tarkin ordered transports to fly into the city under heavy anti-aircraft fire. Tarkin defended the order by accusing Anakin of fighting too cautiously, leaving their command dispute unresolved.

• A Republic squad entered a building under fire, and a panicked civilian woman jumped from a fourth-floor window as Anakin ordered his troops to advance.
• The Republic army pushed several kilometers into Izzy City, while General Tandin committed more Onderon troops and battle droids to slow the assault.

The Republic’s surprise assault on Izzy City collapsed the Central Trade Tower and caused massive civilian casualties, prompting Stila Gerrera to condemn Anakin Skywalker.

The Galactic Republic conquered Onderon in a single day, captured Akhenaten Tandin, and celebrated Wilhuff Tarkin’s appointment as Governor of the Fourth Army. Tarkin turned his attention to the still-intact Separatist stronghold beneath Dexen Satellite and concluded that the Republic needed super battleships capable of destroying planets.

Enraged by the ambush and his own humiliation, Wilhuff Tarkin ordered an all-out assault on Dexen Satellite, where Republic forces began a costly landing attempt.

• General Kalani’s evacuation plan left partially assembled Behemoth-class battlecruisers on Dexen Satellite as decoys while Doctor Zhang Jiarui installed eight concealed Yamato Cannons on Dagori Satellite.

The Galactic Republic launched a massive assault on Steel City on Dexen Satellite, but its city-class shield withstood the attackers’ bombardment as Separatist defenses inflicted heavy losses. Republic troops landed around the city and began advancing toward the shield.

• Over a hundred Republic transport ships descended through Dexen’s atmosphere and attacked Steel City, whose one-way shield blocked incoming fire while Separatist guns, missiles, and droids fired back.
• Republic ships failed to penetrate the shield and instead unloaded troops outside its perimeter, where Separatist long-range fire destroyed transports and killed soldiers.
• Republic soldiers charged toward Steel City under heavy fire as Siege Tank shells struck their landing areas.
• Republic AT-TE walkers disembarked and fired high-explosive shells at the shield, while the Republic established more than a dozen landing zones around the city.

The Republic Army struggled to break through Steel City's formidable shield while suffering devastating losses in repeated assaults. A few soldiers reached the shield's range, but the attack continued amid the slaughter.

• Steel City's costly one-way shield withstood the Republic Army's bombardment, leaving the army to seek a way to enter the city.
• An officer ordered Company 107 and Company 108 to charge across exposed ground, and battle droid fire wiped out both companies.
• A Republic LAAT/C transport and its AT-TE walker were destroyed, but some soldiers used the wreckage as cover and reached the shield's range.
• The Republic soldiers who reached the shield deployed smoke grenades, drones, and remote-controlled bombs while reinforcements continued to be sent forward.

Ramses Dundup decided to reclaim Onderon’s throne and lead its people through the war, while Judgment agreed to help him before heading to Dexen Satellite. Stila Gerrera learned that Judgment intended to rescue Zhang Jiarui, the Thor Mech designer whose weapon had massacred Rebel Alliance fighters.

• Stila Gerrera urged Ramses Dundup and Seth to overthrow Sola Gerrera, but Dundup explained that Onderon’s rulers had little power to avoid the war or protect civilians.

• Judgment agreed to help as an observer, then said he would travel to Dexen Satellite to rescue Zhang Jiarui, a Tyran Heavy Industries engineer who had led the Thor Mech’s design.
• Stila recognized Zhang Jiarui as the Thor Mech’s designer and remembered the massacre the weapon had inflicted on Rebel Alliance fighters.

Judgment persuaded Stila Gerrera to accept her help in overthrowing Sola Gerrera, while Izzy City descended into violence under Republic occupation. Sola tried to send Onderon’s Royal Guard to the front, but Wilhuff Tarkin rejected the plan so he could later blame Sola for the suffering and win the civilians’ support.

• Judgment defended her decision to take Zhang Jiarui and told Stila that sacrifice without purpose could not change the world; Stila then asked her to help overthrow Sola Gerrera.
• Republic soldiers committed murder, arson, rape, and other crimes in Izzy City as officers largely tolerated their violence, while Sola Gerrera barred civilians from leaving and recruited workers for the Republic.
• Sola dismissed reports of the soldiers’ crimes and claimed the dead had served the Separatists, then revealed that he had offered to send all two hundred thousand Royal Guard troops to Dexen Satellite.
• Wilhuff Tarkin rejected Sola’s offer, intending to let Sola’s abuses continue so he could later arrest and execute him and turn Onderon’s civilians against their king.

Wilhuff Tarkin pressed the assault on Steel City, but General Kalani unleashed a reserve force of Scorpion tanks that struck the Republic Army’s exposed rear. The Republic was forced to retreat from parts of the shield perimeter, and its artillery suffered heavy losses.

• Tarkin ordered his forces to capture Dexen Satellite quickly and abandon fantasies about using Sola Gerrera as a scapegoat.
• The Galactic Republic Army battered Steel City’s shield and defenses, capturing two orbital defense cannons at the cost of more than 700,000 soldiers.
• Tarkin concentrated the Republic assault in nine directions after abandoning landing points where attacks had stalled.
• General Kalani sent more than 400 Scorpion tanks, supported by over 100 M-9 Wolverine vehicles, through gaps between the Republic’s offensive sectors.
• The Scorpion tanks severed supply lines, forced Republic units to retreat, and destroyed several artillery positions, including at least five SPHA-T cannons.

Wilhuff Tarkin held back Republic assault ships as his forces struggled against the Separatists’ artillery, while Onderon soldiers searched brutally for Stila Gerrera. Stila and her elite squad reached a hideout near the Unifar Temple, where Ramsis Dumbledore prepared to challenge the occupation politically in her place.

• A Scorpion tank crippled a SPHA-T, and Wilhuff Tarkin assigned more fighters to battlefield patrols rather than risk sending Acclamator-class ships into range of the missing J-1 Proton Cannons.
• Wilhuff Tarkin smashed his terminal into a staff officer after receiving the battle report.
• Onderon soldiers raided a rebel hideout and received an order to capture Stila Gerrera within one day, then launched a violent citywide search.
• Stila Gerrera led her elite squad through patrols and search teams to a hideout a few kilometers from the Unifar Temple.
• Ramsis Dumbledore said he would use political means to resist the Republic occupation so Stila would not yet have to face its attacks.

Stila-Gerrera agreed to lead the Rebel Alliance in overthrowing Sola-Gerrera while Ramses-Dundup stayed out of the operation to preserve his political position. As Judgment prepared to help them enter the Unifar Temple, Seth revealed that a Jedi Knight had killed his father and insisted on joining the fight.

• Ramses-Dundup refused to involve himself or the Royal Guard in the assault, explaining that he needed a suitable position in the Galactic Republic Senate after reclaiming the throne.
• Stila-Gerrera promised to restore Dundup to power and asked Judgment to help the rebels break through the Unifar Temple's defenses.
• Judgment agreed to draw the guards' attention at the main gate and told Seth not to join the coming battle, but Seth insisted that he wanted to fight for Onderon.
• Seth told Stila-Gerrera that a Jedi Knight had killed his father during the battle around Izzy City's Energy Center.
• Stila-Gerrera apologized for the circumstances surrounding Seth's father's death, while Seth blamed the Jedi and said he wanted to witness their destruction.
• Seth told Judgment that he trusted her because she differed from the Jedi Knights and acted on what she could do in the moment.
