Jedi Coalition

"Our position is this: As long as Jacen Controls the Alliance, there is no Alliance."

- Luke Skywalker

The Jedi Coalition was a coalition of the New Jedi Order and parts of the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances loyal to Cha Niathal along with Admiral Daala and the Maw Irregular Fleet. It was officially formed by Luke Skywalker after the Battle of Kashyyyk In response to Darth Caedus's tyrannical rule of the Galactic Alliance. Their objective was remove Solo from power so they could peacefully end the Confederation-Galactic Alliance War.

The Battle of Kuat
"The Jedi can support you no longer."

- Luke Skywalker to Darth Caedus

The Battle of Kuat had been going on for nearly a week. Jacen's plan to finally win the battle was to have the Jedi in their StealthX starfighters to crush the Confederation fleet. While talking with his fellow Jedi, Luke tried to come up with a plan of what action the Jedi should take. There was nothing to arrest Jacen for and he didn't want to support the Confederation. But the Jedi couldn't be pushed anymore from Jacen, something needed to be done. Luke asked the Jedi when the line was crossed. But the rest of the Jedi supported Lukes actions and said the line wasn't crossed until he said so. Soon after that, Cilghal entered the room and told Luked that Cal Omas and been killed and it was Ben that did it. The line was officially crossed and Luke confronted his nephew and after an argument about if Jacen ordered Ben to assainate Omas, Luke informed Jacen that the Jedi would no longer support him. Jacen then threatned to kill the Jedi he was holding on Ossus, and Luke told him he would be returning to his StealthX and left. It seemed to Jacen that Lukes withdrawal from the GA wan't official and was glad to have the Jedi back in the battle plan. After the Jedi launched he reached out to the Jedi and urged them to attack, they responded with a wave of anger and then left the system. Jacen then realized that the Jedi had deserted him, and even though the battle was won it took much longer to finish and costed many lives.

The Battle of Kashyyyk


"We have come to Kashyyyk to ask the Wookies to join us."

- Luke Skywalker to the Rock Council

After Kuat, Luke led the Council Masters as he joined Han and Leia at Kashyyyk to address the Rock Council. He informed them that the murder of Cal Omas although carried out by his son, was arranged by Jacen and requested that the Wookies join their Coalition against Jacen. After being informed by Ben that the Jedi were on Kashyyyk, Jacen planned to give the Wookies an opportunity to turn over his parents and the Jedi which he knew they would refuse. When the fleet arrived a squadron of Owools approached and listen to Caedus's terms. After they refused he would have justification for burning Kashyyyk, which would attract the Confederation away from the core. After he ordered the bombardment of the planet, the Owools began their run on the ship. With the Wookiee Jedi Lowbacca leading the squadron, the Owools launched a single shadow bomb. Ben Skywalker was next to Caedus and on the bridge walkway and, moments before the shadow bomb hit the bridge, attempted to strike Caedus down. Ben failed to kill Jacen, and the Dark Lord then attacked Ben with force lightning and put him in the Embrace of Pain, where he would try to turn his cousin to the dark side.

On Kashyyyk, Han and Leia left for Hapes in order to enlist the support Queen Mother Tenel Ka Djo. At the same time Luke began to ready much of the New Jedi Order for their assault against the Galactic Alliance forces in a wing of StealthXs. Skywalker led the Night Blades squadron on a raid on the Anakin Solo, hoping to eliminate Jacen and destroy the turbolaser batteries firing on the planet. The Wookiee fleet was still organizing which left the Jedi as the planet's only defenders. Caedus flew out in his own StealthX to shoot down Skywalker and his twin sister, Jaina Solo. The Jedi suffered many casualties, but Luke managed to fake his own death and land upon the Anakin Solo, disabling the long-range turbolasers and engaged his nephew in a fierce duel. The fight between Grand Master and Dark Lord of the Sith was extremely vicious and left both very wounded, but Luke had the upper hand in the fight and spared Caedus after Ben ruthlessly stabbed him with a vibroblade. He believed that killing him would result in his son falling to the dark side and left.

Parley on the Dragon Queen
"We can bring Jacen down by more subtle means. Once he's no longer in charge of the Alliance, I'm confident all parties will work out their differences in a more amicable manner."

- Luke Skywalker to Admiral Babo



After the duel, Tenel Ka arrived with her fleet and saw that her lover was in fact burning Kashyyyk. After Jacen denied the surrender she offered, the Confederation and Hapan fleets that surrounded Jacen attacked. It seemed certain that Jacen along with the Fifth Fleet would be destroyed. But the arrival of Alema Rar and her battle mediation combined with Caedus's allowed for him to escape. Afterwards the Confederation and Jedi forces met on the Dragon Queen to discuss the stance of the Jedi, Wookie and Hapan forces in the war. The Jedi stressed that they would not side with the Confederation, but would form their own faction dedicated to removing Jacen from power so the Galactic Alliance could be properly ruled once more. The Hapans and Wookies also did not agree with the Confederation so they joined Lukes new faction. The Jedi Coalition was officially formed and they agreed not to interfere with the Confederation and stated that they would return to the Alliance once Jacen was removed from office. Han and Leia then gave permission for both organizations to assassinate their son.

Senate Building Ambush
"Care to surrender, Colonel Solo?" "Not to a traitor.""

- Kyle Katarn and Darth Caedus

Afterwards, Luke officially took his son Ben as his apprentice and set up a temporary headquarters for the Jedi and other Coalition members in an abandoned Imperial base on Endor. Knowing that action needed to be taken against Jacen, he charged Kyp Durron with making the plan. Kyp informed Luke of his plan to capture Jacen outside the Senate Building and then the team would escape in the undercity with Jacen as their captive while a fake escape shuttle is used as a diversion to lead security away. Kyp told Luke that if they couldn’t capture Jacen they would kill him. Luke reluctantly agreed. After meeting the teams guide through the undercity,Seha Dorvald a former traitor of the order who spyed for Jacen, he approved the plan. Although Kyp wanted Luke to lead the ambush, Luke immediatley refused believing he would attack in hatred and appointed Kyle Katarn as the leader. The team was made up of Katarn, Valin Horn, Corran Horn, Thann Mithric, Kolir Hu'lya and Seha. The team travelled to Coruscant and planned for Seha to plant a tracking device on Jacens cloak using the force so at the very least they could track his movements. The mission was only a partial success. Seha was able to plant the device on Jacen but at a price. Jacen was now a powerful Dark Lord of the Sith and emerged from the fight victorious after decapitating Mitric and stabbing Kyle Katarn through the chest. He defeated the team even though he was still wounded from his duel with Luke. The GAG troopers arrived and completely devastated the escape shuttle. Seha and Horn managed to drag Katarn to safety and escaped with the rest of the team.
