Roshton

Commander Roshton served in the Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars. About one year after the Battle of Geonosis, he was assigned to accompany one of Chancellor Palpatine's advirors, Kinman Doriana to Cartao. Their mission was to secure the assistance of Spaarti Creations for the manufacture of modern cloning cylinders. The Separatists discovered the plan and launched an attack on Cartao. Roshton had been given orders to defend Spaarti Creations from being captured and to ensure the continued production of the cloning cylinders, but now he realized that the two order were conflicting. If his troops engaged the enemy, the manufacturing facilty would probably be damaged, but if they didn't fight, the facility would easily be captured by the Separatists. He also only had 900 troops, while the Separatists had 5,000 battle droids. Despite the damage the fire-fight might cause, Roshton decided to have his troops hide inside the facility for cover. After meeting Jafer Torles Cartao's Jedi Guardian, Roshton decided he needed a new strategy that would prevent serious damage to the facility. He ordered his troops to move into the tunnels that led away from the main plant and establish positions from which they could harass the rear flanks of the Separatist forces. Roshton, in the guise of a landscaper, planted remote-activated landmines around the grounds. His plans were going well until Separatist forces collapsed the exits to an access tunnel, trapping his troops within. Kinman Doriana and Jafer Torles launched a daring rescue mission, a Republic gunship destroy the entire facility, supposedly under the orders of Jedi Knights.
