Fall of Fortressa

The Fall of Fortressa was a devastating battle that resulted in the utter annihilation of the planet of Fortressa III, previous operational headquarters of the REPCOM Initiative. The Empire assaulted the fortress world with an armada of massive proportions, leading to weeks of bloody carnage as the Republic's forces fought back against them, whilst a gang war raged between the Black Sun and the Hutt Cartel in Fortressa's capital city of New Bothawui. The conflict awoke ancient Rakatan artifacts, causing Rakatan war droids to attack all parties involved in the fighting, and by the end of the Fall of Fortressa, Fortressa III was rendered inhospitable by the combined efforts of the Sith Empire and the Mandalorians. At the end of the Fall of Fortressa, the Exodus Event occurred.
