First Battle of Ruusan

The First Battle of Ruusan was one of the final battles of the New Sith Wars, and the first battle of the last campaign of the war. A flotilla of Sith warships under the direct command of Lord Kaan ambushed a small Republic fleet orbiting Ruusan, a relatively insignificant world used by the Republic to launch raids on Sith-occupied Kashyyyk. On his command ship Nightfall, Kaan used battle meditation while Kopecz flew with the Sith interceptors. The initial attack crippled two of the Republic's Hammerhead-class capital ships.

However, suddenly the use of battle meditation by a Jedi Master in the Republic fleet allowed them to regroup, launching four squadrons of Aurek fighters and using the two remaining capital ships to destroy the Sith cruiser Fury. Lord Kopecz boarded the Republic flagship, killing several squads of elite guards and Selkath Padawans, before reaching the location of the Jedi Master, an elderly female Cerean. Kopecz cut her down after a moment of admiration, ending the Republic's change of fortune.

All Republic ships were destroyed and all Republic soldiers killed in the battle.
