Skirmish on Taul

The Second Battle of Taul was a three-way skirmish that took place on Taul the day after the First Battle of Taul.

Background
The preceding day an Imperial Victory-class star destroyer, the Dominator, arrived at the swampy world of Taul to investigate the disappearance of a probe droid and discovered a small Rebel base on the planet. The result of this finding was the First Battle of Taul in which the Rebel base was destroyed. Several Transport ships managed to escape the surface of the planet. The Dominator pursued these, but prior to leaving dispatched three squads to the planet's surface to retrieve any Rebel documents and kill any survivors.

The Battle
While investigating the surface, the Imperial squads - Kraeth, Lesan, and Dangerst - discovered an unknown object with several groups of beings converging on it. Three of the groups were Rebel squads - namely, the Rancor, Womp Rats, and Santhar squads - sent to retrieve the object. The other groups were smugglers who had become alerted to the presence of the object while passing through the system. The smuggler squads Red Wing and Pounders were led by the bounty hunter Ragan Ten.

The three factions engaged in a fierce three-way battle over the unknown object, each faction wanting to retrieve it.

Outcome
The outcome of the battle remains unknown, as does the nature of the object itself. One of the factions probably managed to retrieve the object and bring it back to the pick-up point, but it is possible that all groups failed and the object remained on Taul.
