    501ST JOURNAL
    The Battle of Christophosis
    “Betrayal and Victory”
    After General Skywalker broke through the naval blockade by Admiral Trench, the 501st linked up with General Kenobi and the 212th planet side and started taking back the planet of Christophosis. What none of us expected was that the droids seemed to be one step of us. We all had our suspicions but we weren’t prepared for the truth.
    After the arrest of the traitor and the timely arrival of reinforcements by General Yoda, the Republic won the battle. But we didn’t have time for rest yet. We received new orders: To head to the planet Teth and rescue the son of crime lord Jabba the Hutt. This was a mission none of us were looking forward to.

    So at the end of the battle, the nobles lost everything. Honestly, this was a blessing in disguise. They were so oppressive and snobby, they needed to be brought down from the pedestal. Somebody who would willingly leave so many others to die, especially those who have served them, doesn’t deserve what luxuries and riches they have. They need to be taught a lesson in seeing things through the eyes of those they’ve artificially placed below them.

    In truth the Battle could have been truly devastating to the Republic early in the war, and no doubt that Palpatine needed the Republic to hold the planet to secure their territory and the mining resources of the planet. The CIS was very eager to take the resources of the planet and used its location for its hyperspace lanes.

      Definitely one of the more unique looking planets of the Star Wars galaxy and one I hope to see revisited. The world of Christophis also has such an interesting history, settled only around 700 years BBY making it one of the youngest developing civilizations in the galaxy (their ancestry prior to colonization not withstanding) not to mention the history of its founding is also pretty interesting! Though I do hope that if and when its explored again we get to see it in a new vision, with varied crystalline landscapes (crystal forests, big caves, giant geodes, gemstone plains and etc.), oh and maybe more densely packed urban centers?

      True, it's almost unbelievable how incredibly vulnerable so many planets are in the star wars galaxy, even on worlds with populations in the billions yet these governments of their respective planets can't seem to spare a few lousy credits for standing militaries or defense forces? Heck investment in atleast some orbital defense platforms you would think be standard practice for most settled worlds so as to better control ships passing through space ports but nope! Almost ever one of them are so completely vulnerable to the point were even mere space pirates can pose a serious threat to planets that should have the economic and industrial capacities for fielding armies that would absolutely dwarf all our Earth's modern militaries combined!

    Christophosis is quite an unique world with a crystal like appearance on it's surface and usage for city buildings.

I don't know why, but seeing jewelry with color just fascinates me as they're more then just shiny pretty objects. It's too bad that it came out at a time when the Clone Wars movie didn't quite sit well with audiences and critics, given that it was released in theaters rather on TV as a pilot movie. I mean, I remember enjoying the Clone Wars movie and the first 2 seasons of the CGI Clone Wars back when it was on Cartoon Network as a kid.

Good thing he's competent, otherwise many many men would have died needlessly as a result. For that, Kenobi is very lucky.

    Faking earnest surrender in combat isn't a strategy, it's a war crime. Obi Wan deserves his reputation as a negotiator as much as Kissinger deserves his as a diplomat.
    And the impressionable kids watching probably came away thinking Obi just heroically outsmarted this poor ROE-abiding separatist commander who was handicapped already with an incredibly lazy name.
