Battle of Mon Calamari (Clone Wars)

"Troubled is the planet Mon Calamari. Its races have divided. The droid army of the Quarren Isolation League moves against the Calamari Council. Alone, the Calamari are no match. Intervene we must!"

- Master Yoda

The Battle of Mon Calamari was a major battle between the Quarren Isolation League and the Mon Calamari Loyalists (the latter assisted by the Grand Army of the Republic) fought during the Clone Wars.

Background
When the Confederacy of Independent Systems intervened in local politics, Grand Master Yoda sent a task force to Dac led by Jedi Master Kit Fisto to assist the Mon Calamari. Fisto was determined to defeat the rebel Quarrens, and restore peace to Mon Calamari, a somewhat important planet in galactic affairs.

The battle


"Master Fisto, trust your insight in these matters we do. May the Force be with you."

- Yoda

Upon arrival, a fleet of Acclamator-class assault ships landed in the broad oceans of Dac. From his command ship, Master Fisto leaped into battle with an army of Clone SCUBA troopers, engaging the Quarren army in its own element.

The battle eventually settled around a large self-propelled artillery cannon. It fired several shots, destroying several Acclamator-class assault ships before Kit Fisto was able to destroy the cannon's legs with massive force bubbles. With the aid of the native Mon Calamari Knights, the gun was pushed over the edge of a chasm and destroyed.

The fighting continued for several more days as the elusive Moappa telepathic swarm consciousness continued its command of the Quarren, angered by the Mon Calamari's arrogance in claiming their planet for themselves.

Aftermath
When Fisto learned of the Moappa's intentions, he advised the Mon Cal to use their diplomatic techniques to deal with them. Afterwards, he presumably left the planet.
