Horn Company was present when Jedi Master Eeth Koth was captured aboard the Steadfast. More than half of the members were wiped out during the attack and the rest escaped via escape pods.

History[edit | edit source]
Grievous attack[edit | edit source]
At the beginning of the war, Eeth Koth's flagship, the Steadfast, was engaged by Separatist forces under the command of General Grievous. Clone Captain Lock and his clone troopers held off the super battle droids for as long as possible, until Master Koth ordered him and his men to get to the escape pods. As the droid General boarded Koth's ship, the Zabrak Jedi and his last troops were forced to confront the cyborg on the bridge. At first the BX-series commando droids killed off Koths's troopers and crew members, and then attacked the jedi master himself. General menaged to defeat first wave of droids with help of his last soldier, but was eventually overpowered by Grievous's IG-100 MagnaGuards and taken hostage.[1]
First battle of Saleucami[edit | edit source]
The Jedi High Council found out where Koth was and sent a rescue group, including Anakin Skywalker, Adi Gallia and Captain "Rex". Gallia and Skywalker rescued the Jedi Master while Obi-Wan Kenobi engaged Grievous in battle. Fighting their way through numerous commando droids, they managed to get Koth to safety. After Grievous' escaped via escape pod to the planet Saleucami below, Skywalker and Kenobi followed him while Gallia brought an injured Koth to a medical frigate.[1]
