HistoryEdit

The commandos, led by Jedi General Etain Tur-Mukan and Boss, infiltrated a Trandoshan mercenary camp in order to rescue the Wookiee Chieftain Tarfful. The commandos successfully rescued Tarfful from several of General Grievous's bodyguard droids, as well as obtaining intelligence about the Confederacy's alliance with the Trandoshan mercenaries.

Delta Squad also found out the number of hostiles on Kashyyyk, which was more then the Republic High Command had thought. The squad then proceeded to sabotage the Trandoshans' outpost on Kashyyyk, destroying two of their landing pads. When the Confederacy launched their full-scale invasion of the Wookiee tree-city of Kachirho, Delta Squad was the only GAR unit planetside capable of assisting in the defense. Delta Squad managed to sabotage a bridge connecting the two sides of Kachirho, stopping the Confederacy's advance in its tracks. The commandos also secured vital munitions and ordinance depots for the Wookiees, allowing them to sufficiently arm themselves to fight against the Confederacy.

Their final operation was the destruction of a Recusant-class light destroyer attempting to land more battle droids onto the surface. Following the destruction of the cruiser, Sev, the team's sniper specialist, was lost; presumed MIA, but because of orders that came directly from Grand Master Yoda, Delta Squad was forced to abandon Sev. Delta Squad was then extracted and redeployed as the Republic invasion force arrived, and the Battle of Kashyyyk was joined.

Behind the scenesEdit

In Star Wars: Republic Commando, the date of this mission was shown as 785 days after the battle of Geonosis. This date would place it roughly 2 years after the Battle of Geonosis. This lead some fans to believe that the Battle of Kashyyyk raged on from 20 BBY to 19 BBY. However Ryan Kaufman, one of the lead writers of Republic Commando, has said that day 785 was an oversight and that the mission was meant to take place just days before the Battle of Kashyyyk that appeared in Episode III.
