- "Salient's resources, in whatever state we inherit them, are trivial against the necessity of sending a message to other systems in this sector that autonomy is at the pleasure of the Empire, and that that privilege can be revoked whenever the Emperor sees fit."
- ―Moff Wilhuff Tarkin
The campaign at Salient, also known as the Battle of Salient, was a multi-week battle that took place in the Salient system[1] in 17 BBY.[2] Moff Wilhuff Tarkin led the Galactic Empire's military while Saw Gerrera's Partisans were led by a number of commanders, including Captain Has Obitt, led the rebelling factions on Salient's worlds, Salient I and Salient II.[1]
