The Battle of Behpour took place during the War of the Ring on the planet Behpour in the Mid Rim Naboo system.
==Prelude==
After the Battle of Angmar, Jedi Luminara Unduli and Aayla Secura discovered a hologram of a Munificent-class star frigate being destroyed by a gravitic polarization beam on Alzoc III. Further investigation by Frodo Baggins revealed the culprit to be bounty hunter Mezmaron, who stole of the bombs from his rival, Kul Teska. Teska was planning to use the beam to destroy the Naboo sun and prove his worth to Saruman the White. Meanwhile, Senator Padmé Amidala, who was investigating a rumored Separatist base near Naboo, was kidnapped by Teska's droids. Discovering her disappearance, the Jedi Masters Sam Gamgee and Aragorn, accompanied by Frodo and Captain Faramir of Gondor and his Padawan Eowyn, led an army of clones to infiltrate and destroy the laboratory.
==The battle==
Commander Cody, Captain Faramir and Captain Rex created a diversion while Jedi Generals Frodo Baggins and Sam Gamgee sneaked into the droid facility and destroyed the shield generator, allowing the main body of troops, commanded by Aragorn and Eowyn, to destroy the main building. Inside, Frodo and Eowyn faced Kul Teska, while Rex, Faramir, Cody, and Ponds brought the Twilight to the rendezvous point. While the three clone troopers were waiting by the Twilight, Saruman arrived. The clone troopers retaliated with blasterfire, but were force pushed to the inside of the Twilight. Saruman closed the freighter's doors and dropped an overhead piece of equipment on top of it with telekinesis. By the time Masters Gamgee and Aragorn arrived, the wizard had already gotten away with it. After a short duel, Aragorn and Gamgee defeated Saruman. Before they could kill him, however, the platform they were standing on started to collapse. Aragorn and Sam jumped aboard the Twilight that somehow either the clones or R2-D2 was able to keep from crashing. Saruman fell, only to be saved by Dark Witch Jinx piloting a Sheathipede-class transport shuttle, in which they escaped. Meanwhile, Frodo and his Padawan had battled and defeated Teska (with some unexpected help from Mezmaron) and saved Senator Amidala before the duel, whom Frodo informed about a power regulator he and Eowyn passed by on their way. Padmé later sabotaged the weapon via the power regulator. In the end, the Jedi and clone officers escaped with the Senator, leaving Teska and his experiments to die in the burning wreckage of the laboratory.
