Torrent Company/Legends

Torrent Company was a company of clone troopers within the 501st Legion of the Grand Army of the Republic.

Overview
Under the command of Jedi General Anakin Skywalker and led by Captain Rex, the company participated in the Battle of Christophsis. Torrent Company made use of only a few clones as well as artillery to fight off the battle droids and their tanks.



This gave Skywalker and his Padawan Ahsoka Tano time to sneak past the enemy position and destroy their deflector shield generator, ultimately achieving victory as the device protected the enemy positions from the Galactic Republic's artillery weapons.

The Company later participated in the Battle of Teth in order to recover Jabba the Hutt's son who was held by the Confederacy of Independent Systems at their hideout in the B'omarr monastery there. Torrent Company suffered heavy casualties in taking the mountain top base where they were ambushed by Separatist droids. Captain Rex and five other clone troopers were the only survivors of Torrent Company.

Later in the Clone Wars, Rex, Skywalker and Tano, lead other members of Torrent Company, including Denal, on a mission to infiltrate and destroy Skytop Station. Though the the team was successful in destroying the enemy listening-post, Rex and Denal were the only squad members that survived the mission.
