The Ciutric Offensive was a campaign launched by the Galactic Empire in 19 BBY, to drive out the holdout forces of the Confederacy of Independent Systems from the Ciutric sector and the surrounding regions.

PreludeEdit

After the end of the Clone Wars, Separatist forces that had fled from Muunilinst and Mygeeto joined forces with pirates and Thalassian slavers in the Ciutric sector. Based out of Axxila, Admiral Terrinald Screed's fleet formed part of Crimson Dagger Command, which was charged with eliminating this threat.

The campaignEdit

After Screed's forces defeated the Separatists at the Battle of Vinsoth, the Muun leadership fled to Binquaros. Screed left General Hurst Romodi's ground forces to fight the Muun while he pursued a combined Separatist and Thalassian fleet ships to Bimmiel. Screed eliminated the fleet, but while he was engaged at Bimmiel, pirate and Mandalorian forces driven from the Salin Corridor by another Imperial task force overcame his rear guard at Botajef. Joining forces with mercenaries from Serenno, they broke Romodi's siege and fled to the Unknown Regions with their allies from Binquaros. Acting on intelligence from a pirate captain, Screed and Romodi intercepted the Separatists at Vardoss and finally defeated them.
