- "Droid reinforcements have just arrived. We should break into three groups to divide their defenses. I'll take the left flank; Skywalker, attack the front gate. Ahsoka, you scale the back wall. We'll meet in the middle."
- ―Plo Koon
The Battle of Felucia occurred on the planet Felucia around 21 BBY during the Clone Wars. Forces from the Galactic Republic and Confederacy of Independent Systems clashed for control of Felucia, with Jedi Generals Plo Koon and Anakin Skywalker and Padawan Ahsoka Tano mounting an assault on one of General Grievous's battle droid outposts on the world.

The Battle
Edit
Deep on the planet of Felucia, Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano hold back droid forces with help from clone troopers. General Grievous, after learning of the Jedi attack dispatched reinforcements compromising commando droids and B1 battle droids in a C-9979 landing craft to one of his droid outposts on Felucia. Plo Koon and his clone trooper team called the Wolfpack along with Skywalker and Tano, with Felucian scouts planned an assault on the outpost. He was to take the left flank, Skywalker would attack the front gates while Ahsoka takes the back wall. Ahsoka along with a group of clone troopers including Comet, Sinker and Boost sneaked towards the back wall and took their position. With Skywalker and his clones in position too, Plo Koon ordered the clones operating the AT-TEs to open fire. The clones opened fire on the compound, alerting the droids. The tactical droid, TZ-33 ordered the gates to be lowered and sent out a legion of spider droids backed up by the B1s. As the droids passed by Skywalker, he ignited his lightsaber and attacked the droids, with the clones following. Plo Koon then Force Jumped high up in the air while the clones utilized jet-packs and attacked the compound as well. Ahsoka, after getting the signal, charged the back wall after the clones took out two battle droid guards. While Ahsoka guarded the rear, the clones climbed up the wall using ascension cables. But unknown to them, a Trandoshan named Lo-Taren, who had been watching Ahsoka for some time, knocked out Ahsoka using a stun net. The Republic however, were successful in securing the compound after destroying all the droids present including TZ-33. But after noticing Ahsoka's absence, they began a hunt all around the area.
Behind the scenes
Edit
- "Located near a major hyperspace lane, the planet Felucia is caught in an unending battle between Republic and Separatist forces."
- ―Newsreel for "Padawan Lost"
The newsreel for "Padawan Lost" described the Battle of Felucia as "unending," implying that it was a continuation of the earlier battle of Felucia that was portrayed in the episode "Holocron Heist." However, a direct relation between the two battles, if any, has yet to be clarified.
