212th Attack Battalion

The **212th Attack Battalion** was a military unit in the clone engineered Grand Army of the Republic. Led by Jedi General Obi-Wan Kenobi, Jedi Commander Jarik Shan, and Clone Marshal Commander Cody, the 212th fought against the Droid Army of the Confederacy of Independent Systems throughout the Clone Wars, often fighting alongside the 501st Legion led by Jedi General Anakin Skywalker, Jedi Commander Ahsoka Tano, and Clone Captain Rex.

By the third and final year of the conflict, half of the 212th led an invasion of the Separatist-controlled world of Utapau, engaging an army of battle droids while Kenobi hunted down General Grievous to end the War. The other half was back on the Republic's capital of Coruscant with Shan since the Jedi Council needed a Jedi on standby in case an important mission came up. Although the Jedi Master completed his task by killing Grievous, he and Shan were betrayed by their soldiers upon the activation of Order 66, a protocol that called for the extermination of all Jedi. The clones failed to kill their former leaders and one of their own troopers helped Shan and Initiate Katooni escape from the Jedi Temple.

Following the proclamation of the New Order, the 212th was absorbed into the armed forces of the Galactic Empire. During their days of service to the new government, the battalion was dispatched to the Wookiee homeworld of Kashyyyk where they suppressed an indigenous uprising. By then, their commanding officer was General Kahdah.
