Battle of Malastare



The Battle of Malastare was one of the most major battles of the Clone Wars. It took place on the planet Malastare following an assault on the planet by the Confederacy of Independent Systems in an attempt to deplete the Galactic Republic's fuel supply.

The Confederacy's efforts on the planet were successful, so Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine ordered the use of an electro-proton bomb to deactivate the Separatists' droid army. The bomb worked, but had the unforeseen effect of creating a sinkhole that released a powerful creature known as the Zillo Beast.
