Battle of Mygeeto

The Battle of Mygeeto was a battle that took place on the mineral-rich planet of Mygeeto during the Clone War. The battle started when the CIS dispatched a massive invasion force to secure Mygeeto and therefore obtain its vast riches, both in rocks, metals and crystals. The Galactic Republic sent a response team led by Ki-Adi Mundi to the planet to prevent the CIS from taking the world, and as soon as the Republic forces landed the battle began.

After digging into Mygeeto's biggest cities, the Republic armies began spreading out across Mygeeto's bridges to engage the CIS forces in battle. However, the CIS soon began landing forces in the cities as well and before long the battle had spiralled out of control with heavy casulties on both sides and massive collateral damage. Ki-Adi Mundi himself fought on the front line for most of the conflict and earned respect and almost admiration from his Clone Troopers.

Many months into the conflict, the Clone forces were dispatched to recover a specific crystal from a Mygeeto industrial zone - this would become the prototype for the Death Star's superlaser refinement modules. Ki-Adi was completely oblivious to this and before long the Clones began to lose faith in him, both due to his obvious lack of awareness of Palpatine's plans and due to his inablility to win them the battle. When Order 66 was executed by Palpatine, the Clone Recon Team that were aiding Ki-Adi in an unsuccessful attempt to take a CIS-held bridge were almost relieved to finally be able to gun the General down.

Not long after this the CIS officially surrended and ended the Clone War, also ending the Battle of Mygeeto in the process. The horrific act performed by the Clones on Mygeeto in killing Ki-Adi was felt all over the Galaxy as Order 66 was executed, and before long the Republic was reorganised into the first Galactic Empire.
