The **Battle of Sluis Van Shipyards** was an engagement between the New Sith Empire and the Galactic Alliance during the Great Sith/Jedi War. Sometime after their Victory over the planet Botajef, the Alliance would launch an assault on the planet and soon Jedi Master Kenith Dellis and Clone Commander Ajax would lead a massive Alliance fleet towards the Planet. Soon after exiting hyperspace, Kenith would soon order his Fleet to split into 2 Squadrons and ordered one Squadrons to engage the Imperial Fleet, as he led his personal squadron in an assault on the 2 Space docks of the Shipyards. As the Rebel Forces began to arrive in the space docks and combated with the Imperial Forces, Kenith's Squadrons would coordinate with Jan's Squadrons and soon surrounded the Fleet and began to bombardment Imperial Forces as Rebel Bombers would be launched and soon began their bombing runs and Fighters and Interceptors continued to clash with the Imperial Fighters. As dogfights began to erupt around the shipyards, Rebel Forces would quickly take control of the space-docks and move to capture the cental station and the starfighter base.

As the Rebel Forces on the Space-docks continued to advance towards the Central Station and Base, Kenith and Jan's Squadrons would quickly begin to rip through the Imperial Fleet. Soon many Imperial Ships began to fall as both Squadrons ripped through their defenses and soon the remaining Imperial Forces would quickly retreat back to Coruscant. As the remaining Imperial Forces retreated, the rebel forces would quickly capture the central station and starfighter base.

## **The Battle**

After their victory over Botajef, the Alliance would soon target the Sluis Van Shipyards in preparation for a counterattack against the Empire and ignite the many rebel cells spread throughout the galaxy. Soon newly Jedi Master Kenith Dellis would soon lead a fleet in an assault on the shipyards accompanied by Rebel Commander Ajax, soon a Massive Alliance Fleet would exit out of hyperspace and under Kenith's order, the Fleet would split into 2 Squadrons. One Squadron would soon begin to engage with the Imperial Defense Fleet, as Kenith would command the other squadron to slowly begin to encircle the Imperial Fleet and soon sent a squad of commandos towards the Space dock on the shipyards. As the Commandos began to land and battle their way to the command center, Kenith's Squadron would soon begin to engage with the Imperial Fleet now sandwiched between the 2 squadrons as Rebel Fighters and Interceptors would soon begin to engage with the Imperial Fighters in a massive dogfight around the shipyards. As the dogfight continued to rage, the commandos would successfully take control over the command station and soon more Rebel gunships would head to take control of the Central Space station and the Starfighter base.

After landing in the hangar of the station and base, the Rebel commandos would quickly begin to battle their way to the command centers. As the Rebel Commandos began their assaults on the Central Space Station and Starfighter base, the Rebel Fighters and Interceptors would soon begin to overwhelm the Imperial Fighters and Interceptors and soon Rebel Bombers began their bombing runs on the Imperial Fleet. Soon the bombing runs on the Imperial Fleet alongside the continued fire from both Squadrons would soon begin to decimate the Imperial Forces as the Imperial Fleet began to be destroyed and decimated, the Rebel Commandos would soon take control of the Central space station and starfighter base. Soon the remaining Imperial Forces would soon begin to retreat from the planet and shipyards and the Shipyards would fall into Alliance hands.

## **Aftermath**

In the Aftermath of the battle, the Shipyards would become occupied by the Alliance and soon be slowly Alliance Ships, Fighters and bombers were soon constructed in preparation for the final campaigns and battles of the conflict.
