Wars of Garallocan Independence

## Introduction

The "Wars of Gallorcan independence" refer to the one revolt and two insurrections in the region of Invercta staged by the GIF, a local rebel cell led by Gronochov Osdolva with the out-spoken support of the Grand Tarak, the leader of the Gallorcan faith. The first revolt and insurrection were fought against the Imperial Government of Cheninus whilst the second insurrection was fought against Supreme Commander and Empress Cora Killaeon, Supreme Leader of the Eastern Continent.

The 1 ABY Revolt of Invercta was instigated when the ISB major arrested the Grand Tarak, seizing him from the Holy See. This resulted in a mass protest involving at least 100,000 Gallorcans across the region, which eventually turned into a violent revolt when the GIF rallied the protestors and overrun several small garrisons across the city. This cumulated in a battle in front of the Invercta provincial HQ, where a group of rebels disguised as stormtroopers managed to infiltrate the provincial HQ and slaughtered the provincial command, including the Major and Governor of Invercta. The rebels were subsequently defeated in battle and fled into the countrysides, though the GIF has, by leading the revolt, solidified its place in the hearts and minds of the people of Invercta.

## First Insurrection of Invercta

The first insurrection of Invercta took place on 4 ABY when news of the battle of Endor and the death of the Emperor and Darth Vader reached Cheninus. The GIF, with the Grand Tarak's endorsement, rallied their men across all 3 cities of Invercta. They quickly defeated the garrison in Aberloch, secured the city, but had less success in Invercta and Inveron, where their forces began a series of gruelling battles against the Imperial garrisons.

The GIF gained the upper hand when the Grand Tarak personally visited the local militia garrisons in Invercta and convinced them to join the rebellion. The GIF's forces outnumber the Imperial garrison, who eventually offered to leave the region and head to the MIR.

This was, however, a trap. The garrisons and provincial HQ they left behind were rigged with explosives which decimated the rebel forces and the imperial force, led by Invercta's Lieutenant Colonel, instead head towards Inveron.

The rebel chased them and, aided by GIF rebels situated between Invercta and Inveron who blew up the bridge the imperial forces needed to take to reach Inveron, caught them at the river. The Lt. Col. built up trenches and fortifications while the rebels awaited reinforcement from Invercta.

Before they could arrive, Cora Killaeon, the Supreme Empress of MIR, sent 200 TIE fighters and bombers and an Arquitens to aid the imperial forces, causing the rebel forces, which did not have any anti-air capable of bringing down the Arquitens, to flee.

The rebel forces were severely decimated by the MIR's fleet but, approaching a forest near Invercta, the rebels revealed a number of SPHAT's they hid there which proceeded to fire upon the Arquitens, severely damaging it. The Arquitens, damaged beyond repair, tried to warp to Invercta to destroy the city but missed, creating a crater near it instead.

The rebel forces, now numbered at around 30,000, returned to Invercta's Lt. Col's encampment, which held a force of 10,000 stormtroopers, supported by 20 of Killaeon's TIE's, and they engaged in battle.

After many hours, the rebel overrun the encampment and defeated the imperials, though at the heavy cost of over 25,000 rebel lives.

Killaeon then proceeded to invade Invercta with 40 SPHAT's, 30 AT-AT's, 200 AT-DP's, and approximately 5000 stormtroopers, killing most of the remaining rebels and sending the rest fleeing.

The remaining rebels tried to retake Invercta when Killaeon's forces was marching on Aberloch, but they were led into a trap, killing all of the remaining rebels save for their leader, Gronochov Osdolva, the Grand Tarak, and a handful of rebels.

The GIF then retreated once more to their base.

The second insurrection of Invercta started when Supreme Commander Cora Killaeon took most of her infantry and armour out of Invercta City to join her Expeditionary Force which then promptly invaded Uveldo, the northern island of the Nelbari Republic. GIF forces entered Invercta with over 30,000 blasters and began distributing them to citizens and managed to take over two garrisons and destroyed eight AT-AT's before Killaeonist reinforcement's arrived in the form of an Arquiten's Light Cruiser and 4 CR-90 Corvettes. Whilst the rebels managed to steal an SPHAT from a military factory north of the river running through the city and score a significant hit on the Arquiten's underbelly causing it to flee 300 Killaeonist TIEs soon arrived finally forcing the rebels to retreat from the city into the countryside, taking around 6000 losses from Imperial TIEs as they did so.
