## Overview

Operation White Laat Downs was on the planet Kuma, during the initial months of the Clone Wars, the overall invasion was a success apart from 1 particular town, called Pecker. During the Invasion of Pecker Jedi General Kai Shen's LAAT was shot down. The 101st Nova Corps were forces to mount a rescue mission for the General.

Marauder Platoon, already battle worn from previous engagements, pressed on with their search and rescue mission, attempting to recover the Jedi General, only to realize after recovering him, that Kai Shen wanted them to continue on his original mission and destroy a nearby Droid Factory.

## Operation Flow

Operation White LAAT Down began with the Marauder Company of the 101st gathering what clones they could for an assault to recover Jedi Master and General Kai Shen, who had been shot down a few hours ago, with the little time and resources they had, they managed to gather 1 AT-TE, 2 AT-RTs, 2 BARC Speeders and a few clone troopers.

Meanwhile, General Kai Shen's unit survived the crash with little injuries, the General being extremely wounded, ordered his men to clear a path for the rescue team, not realizing they had crashed on a building, his troops rushed out to defend where they found themselves outnumbered and outgunned by an approaching army of B1 Battle Droids coming from the nearby factory.

By this Point the Rescue team had mounted up with the AT-TE and two AT-RTs, choosing to leave the BARC speeders behind. They First had to locate the general, knowing that he went down, they decided to investigate the area believed to harbor the most suspected location for crashed gunships, on their way, they destroyed 1 Droideka, 3 Platoons of Droids and 2 AATs.

By the time the rescue team made it to the survivors of the crashed LAAT most of them had already been killed, apart from CT-8237 "Keishin" and a few other clones, to which Clone Commander "Fillion" had join up with his force.

After the Jedi General Kai Shen was recovered he then proceeded to order the few clones left in the rescue to complete his mission and destroy the nearby droid factory. Marauder Platoon evacuated the general and proceeded on, now with only their AT-TE. After numerous attempts to poke a hole in the Droid Factory, the unit's AT-TE was ultimately destroyed, outnumbered, outgunned and being forced to fight air and armoured targets with little to no support, Clone Commander gave the only order he could; Charge.

The Remnants of Marauder Platoon thought tooth and nail to get inside the Droid Factory, pushing on into multiple complexes, destroying buildings, taking out hundreds of droids. CT-5437 "Valkx" Bravely dragged wounded clone troopers back to cover, healing them and giving them another chance to fight.

After destroying most of the compound, Marauder Platoon was starting to look a lot thinner than it did before, after his radio operator CT-1139 "Doom" informed him Command was now offering them air support, Clone Commander "Fillion" jumped at the opportunity to use it, but only after all of his men were out of the blast radius.

After falling back out of the compound, a starfighter squadron of V-19 torrents descended upon the facility, unloading what they could into it.

## Fate of the Battle

Republic Victory over the Separatists, taking a few casualties but overall still a mighty blow dealt by the republic.

All Separatist forces were Defeated and Destroyed.
