Aspect of Defiance
Character
The war between the Galactic Alliance and the Sith Order has turned into a protracted conflict, stretching across multiple sectors and embroiling entire star systems in chaos. Along the contested borders, fleets clash in fierce engagements, with massive capital ships exchanging devastating volleys of turbolaser fire while starfighters swarm in frantic dogfights. Galactic Alliance forces rely on their advanced tactics, diverse fleet compositions, and skilled pilots, coordinating precise strikes to disrupt the Sith's oppressive advance. Despite this, the Sith Order First Legion’s brutal efficiency, combined with their mastery of the dark side, gives them a lethal edge. Sith battle meditations bolster their forces' effectiveness, while The Second Legion, the Jutrand Raiders, leads brutal boarding parties, sowing terror among Alliance crews.
The fighting is not confined to space. Planets along the border have become battlegrounds as the two factions vie for control of key supply routes and strategic locations. On the ground, Alliance commandos and Jedi Knights engage in intense skirmishes with Sith troops and their dark acolytes, their lightsaber duels illuminating devastated cityscapes. Civilians caught in the crossfire face unimaginable hardships, as both sides requisition resources to fuel their war machines. The Galactic Alliance fights to defend freedom and sovereignty, but their struggle is complicated by Sith psychological warfare, which exploits fear and division to weaken their resolve. The battle has no clear end in sight, with neither side willing to relent, leaving the border zone locked in a grinding war of attrition.
The ongoing conflict turned its focus on Eiattu 6 once more when the planet’s strategic position on the Sanctuary Pipeline made it a critical chokepoint for both factions. Eiattu 6, rich in natural resources and possessing a network of orbital facilities ideal for refueling and repairs, became a highly contested prize. The Sith Order recognized the planet's potential as a hub for projecting their influence deeper into Alliance territory.
The Galactic Alliance, understanding the implications of losing Eiattu 6, launched a counteroffensive to hold the planet and reopen the Sanctuary Pipeline. This escalation transformed the conflict into a brutal tug-of-war, with both sides committing significant resources to control the planet. Orbital space around Eiattu 6 became a chaotic battlefield, with constant skirmishes as Alliance fleets sought to break the Sith blockade. On the surface, Jedi-led forces united the noble houses and rallied local militias to fight against Sith-aligned factions. The intensifying conflict on Eiattu 6 not only highlighted the planet’s tactical importance but also made it a symbol of the larger struggle between freedom and domination, drawing the attention of leaders and heroes on both sides.
OBJECTIVE 1: ALL BLOCKED UP
On the eastern side, the Sith blockade was no less imposing but took on a different character, relying heavily on the Order's mastery of the Force to enhance their tactical operations. Sith battle meditations amplified the effectiveness of their fleet, creating a near-impenetrable defensive net. Cloaked Sith vessels moved silently through the darkness, striking unsuspecting convoys and leaving no survivors. To instill further dread, the Sith used captured Rebel and civilian ships as decoys, luring unsuspecting allies into ambushes. The eastern blockade radiated an aura of despair and inevitability, ensuring that all who ventured near felt the oppressive weight of the Sith's dominion. This ruthless display of strength made the Sanctuary Pipeline a crucible for any who dared challenge the Order's iron grip on the galaxy.
GA Goal: Break through the Blockade
SO Goal: Hold the Blockade
OBJECTIVE 2: HELP IS ON THE WAY
From the palace, relief missions were launched to the hardest-hit regions of the planet, where Sith bombardments and ground skirmishes had devastated entire communities. Alliance transports, escorted by starfighter squadrons, braved enemy raids to deliver aid to besieged towns and villages. Medical teams set up field hospitals, treating injuries caused by both combat and the harsh conditions of displacement. Eiattu’s royal family, long seen as distant rulers, took an active role in the effort, using their influence to rally local support and provide crucial resources. These humanitarian actions, directed from the palace, became a beacon of hope for the planet’s people, demonstrating the Galactic Alliance's commitment to both victory and the welfare of those caught in the conflict.
GA Goal: Bring aid and relief to those who need it
SO Goal: Disrupt aid via subterfuge and misdirection
OBJECTIVE 3: CAPITAL GAINS
The battle began at dawn, with Sith forces descending upon the city in waves. Cloaked in the darkness of a manufactured eclipse caused by Sith sorcery, their fleet unleashed precision orbital strikes to weaken key defenses. Troop transports landed in the surrounding districts, releasing legions of Sith troopers and dark acolytes who quickly overwhelmed the outer defenses. The Galactic Alliance fought back fiercely, deploying ground forces supported by Jedi Knights who sought to turn the tide with strategic strikes and defensive tactics. The streets around the Citadel became a maze of urban warfare, with snipers and heavy artillery turning every alley and building into a potential battleground.
GA Goal: Hold the Capital City
SO Goal: Capture the Capital City
