Second Battle of Felucia The Second Battle of Felucia occurred in 21 BBY during the Clone Wars , when forces from the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems clashed over control of the planet Felucia . Having been forced into a retreat at the previous First Battle of Felucia , the Republic re - established a presence there thanks to the efforts of Jedi General Anakin Skywalker and his Padawan , Commander Ahsoka Tano , who led their clone troopers from the Grand Army of the Republic on an offensive into Separatist - held territory . In retaliation , General Grievous supplied one of his outposts on Felucia with reinforcements from the Separatist Droid Army to secure the system for the Confederacy . Responding to the arrival of the battle droid detachment , Skywalker , Tano , and Jedi Master Plo Koon targeted the enemy outpost with a three - pronged assault , each leading a squad of troopers to divide the Separatist defenses . Supported by heavy artillery tanks situated on an adjacent ridge , the Jedi and clones were able to secure the base from T - series tactical droid TZ - 33 , eliminating all of the droid forces there . However , Tano was captured during the fighting by a group of Trandoshan hunters , who brought her to the moon Wasskah to be hunted for sport . Skywalker and Koon withdrew from Felucia the following day . Prelude . During the Clone Wars , the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems fought to claim the planet Felucia , which was valued for its close proximity to the hyperlane known as the Perlemian Trade Route . In 22 BBY , the first year of the war , Jedi Generals Obi - Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker of the Jedi Order and the latter ' s Padawan , Commander Ahsoka Tano , defended Felucia from a Separatist assault headed by the Confederate General Grievous , but their forces were overwhelmed and forced to retreat with the aid of Jedi Master Plo Koon . The Republic ' s defeat at the First Battle of Felucia impeded the Grand Army of the Republic ' s efforts in the entire Thanium sector , and the Separatist Droid Army installed several outposts on Felucia . The Confederacy ' s control over the world also enabled a Confederate Navy fleet to destroy a Republic medical station in orbit . Despite becoming a Separatist stronghold , Felucia remained a contested site for much of the war , with its native Felucian farmers attempting to stay out of the conflict . In 21 BBY , the Republic was able to re - establish a presence on Felucia when Skywalker and Tano returned with a clone trooper detachment from the Grand Army , mounting a ground campaign against Grievous ' s forces . The battle . Leading a division of clone troopers and All Terrain Tactical Enforcers , Skywalker , Tano , and Clone Captain CT - 7567 , nicknamed " Rex , " advanced into Separatist - held territory on Felucia . The Confederacy deployed numerous squads of battle droids , comprising B1 battle droids and DSD1 dwarf spider droids , to halt the Jedi and clones , who engaged the droids along their path through the dense foliage . Skywalker , Tano , Captain Rex , and their men held their position , pressing deeper into Confederate territory . As the clone tank division battled on into the night , Jedi General Plo Koon arrived aboard his Delta - 7B interceptor with an escort of two V - 19 Torrent starfighters , rendezvousing with Skywalker and Tano along with his clone commander — CC - 3636 , nicknamed " Wolffe " — and their troops from the 104th Battalion ' s Wolfpack . With Confederate control of the Felucia system in jeopardy , General Grievous dispatched droid reinforcements aboard a C - 9979 landing craft to one of his outposts on Felucia , which was being overseen by the T - series tactical droid TZ - 33 . Learning of Grievous ' s reinforcements , the Republic forces resolved to cut off the Separatist detachment at the source . Koon , Skywalker , Tano , and their men proceeded to TZ - 33 ' s outpost , which had been constructed from a mobile command center . Skywalker brought along several Felucians as scouts , having become acquainted with them during a previous trip to Felucia . The Republic forces covertly secured a ridge overlooking the base , where they positioned two AT - TE walkers and a Juggernaut tank . The Separatist landing craft soon arrived , unloading its B1 battle droids and BX - series droid commandos to augment TZ - 33 ' s troops . Observing the droids from their vantage point , Koon devised a plan to divide the enemy defenses : while he scaled the base ' s left side , Skywalker would assault the front gate , and Tano would lead a squad over the rear wall . All three Jedi - led teams would then close in on the command center . With their strategy in place , the Jedi officers moved into place , being careful not to alert the Separatists to their presence . Utilizing a trail charted by their Felucian scouts , Skywalker , Rex , and their squad reached the path leading to the front gate , while Koon and Wolffe stopped with their Wolfpack troops in front of the left flank . Tano was also given a small detail from the Wolfpack , including Clone Corporal Comet , Clone Sergeant Sinker , and trooper Boost . After Skywalker and Tano reported via comlink that their men were in position , Koon ordered the AT - TE walkers on the ridge to fire upon the outpost , just as TZ - 33 ' s forces detected the tanks via scanning . The clone tank gunner s rained down long - range artillery fire , baiting TZ - 33 into marshaling a counteroffensive . Once TZ - 33 ' s frontal flank of B1 battle droids and dwarf spider droids marched out the front gate , Skywalker activated his lightsaber and began his attack , cutting through the droids alongside his men . Meanwhile , Koon jumped over the left wall with the aid of the Force , with Wolffe and their soldiers following with their JT - 12 jetpacks . While Koon and Wolffe engaged droids at their position , Tano had Sinker and Comet shoot down the rear wall ' s two droid guards , allowing their team to grapple over the barrier . Before Tano could join them , she was incapacitated via stun net by the Trandoshan hunter Lo - Taren , who captured her so that she could be subjected to a ritualistic Trandoshan hunt . Pressing through the battle droids , dwarf spider droids , and droid commandos defending the base ' s interior , Skywalker , Koon , and their men converged on the command center alongside Tano ' s squad . Skywalker jumped onto the command deck and destroyed TZ - 33 , securing the Republic ' s control over the outpost . Aftermath . With the fall of TZ - 33 ' s base , the Second Battle of Felucia , as it came to be known , resulted in a victory for the Republic . After receiving a report from Comet and realizing that Tano was missing , Skywalker dispatched several squads of troopers to sweep the perimeter of the outpost . Yet the Republic forces were too late to prevent Tano from being transported off - world by the Trandoshans . She was taken to the Trandoshan moon of Wasskah , where she was deposited on an island site to be hunted for sport alongside other prisoners . Although Skywalker was unable to locate his missing Padawan on Felucia , Koon ensured that every Grand Army detachment in the Outer Rim Territories , as well as all Republic agents within the Confederacy itself , were notified of Tano ' s disappearance . The morning after the battle , Koon and Skywalker received orders to recall their forces from Felucia , and they left aboard a convoy of LAAT / i gunships . Returning to the Jedi Temple on the galactic capital of Coruscant , Skywalker continued to conduct searches for Tano , who was later rescued from Wasskah by a group of Wookiee warriors . Jedi involved in the Second Battle of Felucia documented their experiences in a collection of datafiles later published as the Jedi Battle Logs . Although the Second Battle of Felucia marked a victory for the Republic , Felucia continued to be a key battlefield in the ongoing war , with the Separatist - allied Commerce Guild establishing a heavy presence on the world . In 19 BBY , the war ' s final year , Jedi General Aayla Secura led a detachment from the Republic ' s 327th Star Corps to secure Felucia from the Confederacy as part of the Outer Rim Sieges .
