The battle had unfolded precisely as planned. The last bits of the planetary defenses were being rounded up and the general took measure of the city, which had sustained little if any noticeable damage, a feat due more to luck and master targeting by the various ships gunnery officers then tactics. He looked down at his watch then looked up to the sky.
"Almost feels like wiping out a conclave of sand people."
"Sir?"
"Oh sure, they are mean, but when faced down by armed soldiers their villages become mass grave sites. When you look at it, it really makes you believe in the Grand Admiral. Had an imperial battlegroup shown up here, there wouldnt be a living thing left on this planet right now."
"They did fight valiantly. Outnumbered 2 to 1 and multiple capital ship support, they still charged the field like Mandalorians."
"Precisely why they should be protected, and focused. Many people ask what is the difference between the Republic and the Empire? This battlefield is the difference. Everyone should have the chance to be important, not just those deemed worthy or those with something to give."
"But arnt we here because of their bacta production sir?"
"Our job here isnt to take their bacta, and as I have it, should they wish to withhold said resource from us, we are to give no repercussions for it. Our only job is to rebuild their defensive systems into workable order. And as you can see by the poultry 3 day fight they put up, it is they're only hope against the Empire."
"You cant argue that sir."
The soldiers discussion was cut short by the loud sonic explosions over head and the 10 fiery streaks shooting into the city.
"If the man is anything he is punctual. Well lets get ready, we should be meeting with the defense commander shortly."
"Roger that sir, we will mobilize your command guard."
Meanwhile in the heart of the city the 10 soldiers touched down, far behind the fighting lines, far away from the defense soldiers desperately fighting for their city. Quickly the chuttes were cut clear and the men sprinted into the near by office building that had been loosely retrofitted into a military command center after the main military complex's were destroyed in the initial assault.
2 quick shots and the 2 soldiers, not more then private rank, were dead before they even knew there was a problem. With expert precision the squad stormed through the front doors, 3 more shots and the entry way was clear. The desperation of the situation of clearly evident by the skeleton crew of soldiers to guard the building. Floor by floor the halls were cleared, the defending men down before they could even see their attackers, let alone send a distress call. Only 3 minutes had passed and already 10 floors of the building were passed. Another 20 seconds and the squad arrived at its destination, a lone room in the center of the building 12 floors up. Holding a small device up to the wall the squad leader held up his hand, 5 fingers raised. A holographic image now covered the wall, projecting an infrared view of the rooms interior. Quickly the squad leader dropped his hand and the group smashed through the door, 5 shots fired, the bodies hitting the ground before the defense commander could even look at his attackers.
"Commander Dlarit, on behalf of the Rebellion against the Empire you are under arrest for crimes against your people, criminal negligence, and reckless endangerment."
Before the commander could respond or even move a stun blast sent him crumpling to the ground. The squad leader walked over to a jury rigged com system on the rooms wall activating it.
"Attention all Thyferra defense soldiers. Your defenses are destroyed and your commander taken into custody. You are here-by ordered to stand down immediately and any surviving members are to report immediately to the VNSD Idenna for documentation and re-assignment. Any resisting members will be executed on sight. A large medical triage area has been set up outside the city, any wounded are to report there for treatment."
He set down the com attaching a small explosive device to the unit as the rest of the squad picked the defense commander up from the floor and proceeded to the rendezvous point outside the city. The loud bang at the end of the hall signified the end of the planets resistance. The battle was over, and it was time for the rebuilding to begin.

Notes: Ramano belonged to a splinter squadron in the Rebel Alliance that used Old Republic technology that was funded and improved up by the Rebel Alliance to perform high-impact surgical strikes as part of a rapid response force commanded only by Ramano, who the Rebel High Command preferred to "unleash" rather than "control". Assigned 1000 Republic Heavy Troopers, Ramano created the Low Orbit Shock Trooper (LOST) Division, which enables these troopers to deploy without dropship support from the A-Ring and immediately into the Atmsophere, where they can land anywhere on a planet to strike. The Dreadnaught also features externally rack mounted LAAT/c Gunships, modified for space travel, as Auxiliary support. Used to transport AT-TE walkers during the Clone Wars, these
LAAT/c Gunships do just that, enabling Ramano's team to insert even some powerful GAVs into any battlefield. Due to advanced technology the ship carries a 350KC maintenance cost every action day or is immediately scrapped for no gain. May never be rebuilt.
