There , they will train a group of insurgent rebels — including Lux Bonteri — to help take back the capital city of Iziz from the rule of a duplicitous king . " " Plot summary . Contacted by the rebels of Onderon , whose ranks include Ahsoka Tano ' s friend Lux Bonteri , a native of that world , the Jedi High Council considers how to help them fight the Separatists . Anakin Skywalker ' s suggestion is to train the rebels in subversive combat tactics , thus splitting the Separatist forces ' strength in a two - front confrontation . This proposal , however , is met with criticism by the Council , who fear that this would spawn the foundations of terrorism , and terror is a weapon the Jedi never wish to employ . Nevertheless , considering Anakin ' s arguments , the Council sees no other way of aiding the Onderonians , and so Anakin , Ahsoka , and Rex depart for Onderon , accompanied by Obi - Wan Kenobi , who wishes to keep Anakin ' s temper firmly on the ground in this endeavour . Following their dropoff into Onderon ' s wilderness , the group meets one of the rebel leaders , Steela Gerrera , and are taken to their base , where they also meet Saw Gerrera and Lux . The Jedi proceed to train the insurgents in effective combat techniques and teamwork . In the course of the training , a rivalry becomes apparent between Lux , who fights for the welfare of his homeworld , and Saw , who fancies himself the born leader of the rebellion . He considers Lux a weakling politician unfit for fighting and through the training Ahsoka becomes aware of this conflict . In addition , she becomes aware that Steela has a close personal interest in Lux . As it turns out , the Jedi dropoff did not go unnoticed , and the Separatist occupation forces send out three recon droids to investigate . After locating the rebel base , a battle droid detachment is sent out to destroy them . The droids burst into the middle of a shooting drill session , forcing the Jedi and the rebels to fight their first battle together , in which Lux and Saw succeed in taking out an enemy tank together . Following this victory , the Jedi and the rebels plan a covert assault on the droids stationed in the capital city , Iziz . Sneaking into the city , disguised as a group of hunters and foragers , they split up to secure vital supplies . When Anakin professes his pleasure at his suggestion in training the rebels , Obi - Wan answers with cautious enthusiasm , expressing himself with the term " hopeful " . Continuity . " A War on Two Fronts " was initially reported by " Star Wars Insider " as the premiere episode , before the episode " Revival " took its place as the first episode of the season . " A War on Two Fronts " was produced prior to " Revival , " hence the appearance of Adi Gallia despite her death in " Revival , " which aired prior to " A War on Two Fronts . " The episode guide makes note of this error , along with the appearance of Yoda ' s older character model , though it speculates that it could be Stass Allie , Gallia ' s successor on the Jedi Council , who appears instead . It was later verified that " Revival " had to take place after " A War on Two Fronts , " given the appearance of the not - yet - destroyed Ohnaka Gang pirate post in " Tipping Points . " Later , it was confirmed by the online guide for the episode , " A Necessary Bond " , that " Revival " did indeed take place after " A War on Two Fronts " given that Hondo ' s base was destroyed by Grievous in " A Necessary Bond " as Hondo says in " Revival " . " Revival " was planned to air later in Season Five in proper chronological order , but , it was moved to the start to better showcase the storyline of Darth Maul . Therefore , this proves Adi Gallia is in " A War on Two Fronts " .
