Battle of Christophsis

The Battle of Christophsis was an event taking place during the early part of the Clone Wars when a CIS fleet tried to take over the planet because of its vital resources necessary for the war effort. When the natives sent a distress signal to the Republic, they sent Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi to Christophsis with two battalions of clone troopers to help the people of the planet. During this event, a battle in space destroyed Admiral Trench's ship even though he escaped. Later, the Republic attempted to thwart the Separatist's invasion again, but it failed due to a spy tipped off the CIS. After this, the Republic tried numerous times to attack the CIS, including one by Asajj Ventress.

Offensive on the Blockade
Count Dooku had ordered Admiral Trench to blockade the resource-rich planet on Christophsis and blocking anyone to rescue Bail Organa and his relief effort. The droid army had attacked the capital with Bail and clones and Christophsis's people with their new Hyena Droid Bombers, but the situation for the senator was becoming intense. Anakin lost a medical transport and wanted to pursue and destroy Admiral Trench's capital ship, the Invincible.

Landing on the Planet
The remaining blockade, consisting of Munificent-class star frigates and Lucrehulk-class Battleships, could not stand against the Republic Venator-class Star Destroyers and Admiral Yularen launched several V-19s and Y-Wing Starfighters to engage the remaining fleet. After breaking through, Generals Kenobi and Skywalker landed on the planet with Rex, Cody, the 501st, and the 212th Attack Battalion while Yularen held off the Separatist Armada.
