Sundering of Slession

The Sundering of Slession was a conflict that shared its name with the Inner Rim's Slession system and was fought at some point between 19 BBY and 0 BBY. During the conflict, the Humanocentric Galactic Empire deployed the Ailon Nova Guard, the military force of the Ailon species, into what appeared to be a certain rout.
The Imperial commanders did not expect the Ailon Nova Guard to attain its objective, with the Ailon forces usually being utilized to provide tactical insight into their enemy's composition and tactics through the former's decimation. However, the Nova Guard had at some point began adopting scouting and ambush tactics—as opposed to open assaults on entrenched opponents—and achieved an unlikely victory during the Sundering of Slession. Imperial General Rom Mohc subsequently mentioned the Sundering of Slession in the Imperial Handbook: A Commander's Guide, an Imperial Military manual published by 0 BBY.
