Wurtz's fleet

"Get me Admiral Wurtz. I need three of his star cruisers.''" "Yes, General." "''Greater than we think, this mystery may be. Go with the fleet to aide Master Kenobi, I will."

- Mace Windu, a clone navigation officer, and Yoda

Early during the Clone Wars, the Galactic Republic Admiral Wurtz was in command of a fleet. Jedi General Mace Windu needed three of Wurtz's Star Cruisers to reinforce Jedi General Obi-Wan Kenobi and other Republic forces as they fought the Separatist Alliance on Christophsis during the Battle of Christophsis.

Due to the possibility of that the kidnapping of Jabba Desilijic Tiure's son, Rotta, was a greater mystery, Jedi General Yoda decided to accompany the fleet. Wurtz's Venator-class Star Destroyers arrived to Christophsis alongside four Acclamator-class assault ships and reinforced Republic forces on the ground. Master Yoda joined Admiral Wullf Yularen, who had linked up with the fleet, on the bridge of one of the Venator-class Star Destroyers and began engaging the Confederacy navy. When the blockade was in retreat, forces began landing on the planet.
