Battle of Deneba

The Battle of Deneba was one of the earliest known Krath offensives in the Great Sith War.

Following the earlier Jedi/Republic defeat at the Battle of Koros Major, the Jedi held a a great assembly of ten thousand Jedi Master and Jedi Knights on the planet Deneba. The Krath saw this as an oppoturnity to test this new battle droid and to attack their enemies.

Their agents sabotaged the programming of the servant droids that would be at the convocation and then loaded a Tetan Corsair with a hundred modified life-pods, which each carried a single war droid. Halfway into the Jedi assembly, the sabotaged servant droids suddenly attacked their Jedi owners, causing much confusion and chaos. Meanwhile in orbit, the Tetan Corsair launched its life pods and an army of war droids emerged from the impact craters.

Caught offguard, the tens of thousands of Jedi present there were astounded by the audacity of the upstart dark-siders in attacking such a gathering. Soon, many Jedi fell to these automatons. Jedi Master Arca Jeth fought back against them by using a Force technique he had discovered during the Great Droid Revolution to short-circuit them. However, he eventually fell to a plasma barrage while saving his apprentice Ulic Qel-Droma. Though the Jedi had survived the assault, the death toll was apalling. The death of Arca would forever haunt Ulic, and his death would serve to drive Ulic down the path of the dark side.
