Andrew Butlerz



"Today we fight for more than the republic, today we fight for all our brothers back home. Understood." - Captain Rex (CT-7567)

"I want you troopers to remember—we're shoulder-to-shoulder on those front lines. Brothers! And sometimes we may quarrel, but no matter what, we are united. Rule one: we fight together." ― ARC Commander Colt

-Andrew Butlerz-

This page is based off a character on Clone Wars Adventures.

Andrew Butlerz, known as ARC-5150 was a Delta-Class ARC Commander/Commando in the Grand Army Of The Republic, during the Clone Wars and so forth.

Andrew was a general of the 501st Legion and Larcon Legion, which were both the most Elite squads there were. He later created his own squad called "Shadow Tech Legion." He also joined "Survivors Of The Siege" for a brief time. Then he later rejoined "Larcon Legion" for the rest of his career. He (along with the legions) fought many difficult, dangerous, and most excruciating battles to victory.



Early Life
"You are a clone and a solider in the Republic army!" -Colonel Meebur Gascon

CT-5150 nicknamed "Andrew" was born 32 BBY on Kamino. As a young ARC trooper cadet he was trained by Jango Fett as well as Alpha-17.

At the age of 5 years old, he was assigned to his training squad (one that he will be in for the rest of his training). The squads name was "Alpha Squad" and there were a total of 5 members in it. There was CT-5012 Rex, "the smart one", CT-5243 Jek, the weapon specialtist, CT-5043 Spammer, the sniper, and CT-5302 Gamma, the demolitions specialist, and then there was CT-5150 Andrew, the leader of the squad.

-10 years later-
"Here we go guys, lets hope we pass." -Andrew (CT-5150) to Alpha Squad

The cadets of "Alpha Squad" now all are 15 years of age, are attempting to complete the training combat test "The Citadel." Above the arena, observing the cadets are Jedi Master Shaak Ti, ARC Troopers Colt, Havoc, and Blitz. They were all very impressed with how "Alpha Squad" did on the training course. So they all "graduated" their training and were sent to the front lines.

They all stayed together as "Alpha Squad" but the only difference was they were an elite team within the 501st legion and served in their first real battle which was "The First Battle of Geonosis."

The First Battle Of Geonosis
"So what's the mission sir?" "We're going to help reinforce our new Jedi Generals on Geonosis." -Andrew (CT-5150) to Captain Rex (CT-7567)

Andrew and Alpha Squad are getting their orders from Captain Rex. Their Mission- To destroy all underground droid factories. "Sir Yes Sir!" They all say to Captain Rex.

Now with their orders, they fly in gunships to help aid the Jedi in the Patranaki Arena. They fly their new generals to the battleground and help assist them until they were needed to complete their mission. They helped with the fighting for about an hour then, they got the all clear to complete their mission.

Alpha squad is now heading to complete their mission objectives which are- to destroy the last of the underground droid factories. They head to their first target. They enter through the doorway into the geonosian catacombs. Hundreds of geonosians are sleeping in the hallways of the catacombs, so using their stealth training, Alpha Squad was able to bypass all the geonosians.

They then headed to the reactors of the factory and set about 50 thermal detonators set to blow 8 minutes after they are set. In result, Alpha squad gets the heck out of there not caring if they wake any geonosians.

They do this about 4 more times. Then, as a result all factories are destroyed and the battle of geonosis is won for the republic. And as a result the "Clone Wars" began.

Also Andrew was promoted to ARC Commander/Commando (which means his CT number was redesignated from CT-5150 to ARC-5150) for his valiant work on Geonosis.

The Early Start Of The Clone Wars
"Begun the clone war has" - Yoda

Once the clone wars began he was reassigned to the squad "Larcon Legion" which he served for the next 2 years but he still stayed in Alpha squad within the 501st. The first battle he ever had with Larcon Legion was "The Battle Of Muunilist." The next battle he had with the 501st and Alpha Squad was "The Battle Of Christopshis."

The Battle Of Muunilist
"ARC Troopers, you have been selected for this task because you are the best, the elite. You all know what you to do. The success of your mission is our key to a swift victory. When you get into position send word as planned then I will join you." - Obi-Wan Kenobi to ARC Troopers

Aboard a Republic Acclamator-Assault Ship, Andrew's ARC trooper squad within Larcon Legion was assigned to help ARC Captain Fordo with his mission during Battle of Muunilist. They took a shuttle to Fordo's ship and met with him to discuss their mission. They had a brief meeting with Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. Now that their fleet has reached the surface of Muunilist every trooper boards gunships to goes down to the planet.

The ARC troopers gunship however has special markings and modifications. They fly in with the rest of the gunships but General Kenobi gives them the orders to begin with their mission. Their gunship is flying through the city trying get to their objective point, but then they are shot out of the air by a rocket fired by a battle droid. They end up crashing in one of the streets about 2 miles from their objective point. Most of the troopers survive, they lost their 2 pilots and 1 soldier. They exit the crash and burned gunship. Then, all of a sudden they are sniped by battle droids. The ARC troopers own and destroyed all the snipers via rocket launcher

s and lost 1 soldier in the battle. They start walking to their objective point. About 1 and 1 1/2 miles in they are ambushed by a AAT. They fight it for about 5 minutes before one ARC trooper sneaks behind it, blast through it and destroys the AAT.



Now they are on top of a building and can see their objective point- A large enemy tower with a giant blast cannon. Then, Fordo informs General Kenobi of their status and position, and he tells them to move on to the next phase of the mission. They walk down back to the streets only to encounter a squad of super and regular battle droids. They fight them off and start to head to the enemy tower. They approach the bottom of it and throw ascension cables to lift them up to the top. They encounter another squad of battle droids when they get to the top. Then they get on the cannon and put about 30 explosives on it. Then set more ascension cables to get to the very top of the tower. They climb up while the cannon blows up below them. When they reach the top they see the rest of the gunships and republic troops thus concluding their mission.

Then, Andrew with the rest of Larcon Legion on the planet returned to their cruiser to go to their next battle.

The Battle Of Christopshis
"What's our plan of attack sir?", "Follow me."

-Captain Rex (CT-7567) and Anakin Skywalker

Andrew, Alpha Squad and the members of the 501st legion are called to Christopshis from an impending Separatist attack.

The Battle of Christophsis took place at the planet Christophsis in 22 BBY, seven weeks into the Clone Wars. Responding to a plea for help from the world's inhabitants, the Galactic Republic and the Jedi High Council dispatched Jedi Generals Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker and Admiral Wullf Yularen with a clone trooper contingent which was the 501st legion (which included Andrew and Alpha Squad) and the 212th Attack Battalion from the Grand Army of the Republic to liberate Christophsis. After penetrating Confederate Admiral Trench's massive naval blockade of the planet and delivering supplies to Senator Bail Prestor Organa's refugee camp on the surface via an experimental stealth ship, the Republic forces attempted to ambush the Confederate battle droid army from two towers in one of the plazas of the capital city, Crystal City. Acting on information from one of its spies, Clone Sergeant Slick, the Separatists foiled the Republic's attack. Despite the turn of events, the Jedi and clones managed to escape and retreated back to their base. Alerted to the possibility of a spy amongst their men, Skywalker and Kenobi went to search for more information behind enemy lines while Clone Commander CC-2224 and Clone Captain CT-7567—nicknamed "Cody" and "Rex," respectively—stayed at the base to root out the agent. Upon arriving at the Confederacy base, Skywalker and Kenobi confronted the Dark Acolyte Asajj Ventress and discovered the presence of an invasion force in far greater strength than they had originally believed. Back at the Republic base, Slick was revealed to be the spy and sabotaged the Republic's weapons depot, destroying most of the Republic's supplies, before being apprehended by Rex, Andrew, and Cody. Raising the stakes with its full strength, the main body of Confederate troops launched an assault on the Republic forces. After several days, the Separatists were forced to retreat. When Loathsom mounted a second assault, his forces' advance was halted by the Republic's heavy cannons, and he and his droids pulled back to their base to set up a deflector shield to counter the Republic's artillery. Yularen and the Republic fleet were driven away from Christophsis by the renewed Separatist blockade of the planet, but Skywalker's newly assigned Jedi Padawan, Ahsoka Tano, was able to land on the world. Loathsom and the Confederacy mounted yet another assault, this time advancing behind their shield, which effectively negated the clone artillery. While Kenobi, Rex, the 501st Legion, Alpha Squad, and the 212th Attack Battalion defended the heavy cannons, Skywalker and Tano proceeded to sabotage the Confederacy's shield generator. After Kenobi pretended to surrender to Loathsom to gain time for his comrades to complete their mission, Skywalker and Tano were able to eliminate the shield. Yularen returned to the system with Jedi Grand Master Yoda and a fortified fleet and broke through the Separatist blockade, driving the enemy armada away from Christophsis. In addition, the Republic's renewed artillery usage proved instrumental in annihilating the Separatists in Crystal City. Kenobi captured Loathsom, and the Republic emerged victorious and landed further reinforcements to secure the victory.

The Battle Of Teth
"Teth? That's wildspace, the droids aren't even in that sector." -Anakin Skywalker to Yoda

Andrew, Alpha Squad and the 501st did not get a break after the Battle Of Christophsis. They had to immediately help Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker and his new apprentice Ahsoka Tano, to rescue Jabba the Hutt's son Rotta.

They took a Acclamator-Assault ship to the planets surface. When they reached the atmosphere they took gunships to the monastery. Unable to land at the Teth monastery because of the presence of battle droids guarding it, Skywalker's and Tano's forces were deployed in the jungle below and commenced a vertical assault up the cliff holding the monastery using two AT-TE walkers.

After Skywalker and Tano had defeated the droids and retrieved the Huttlet, Dark Acolyte Asajj Ventress led several more Confederate units on a renewed assault of the monastery, and the Republic forces were forced to barricade themselves inside the stronghold. The two Jedi along with the help of Andrew and Alpha Squad went to find a secondary exit to escape the monastery, hoping to find medical support for the Huttlet, while Clone Captain CT-7567, nicknamed "Rex," stayed to command Torrent Company.

Andrew and Alpha Squad went along with Anakin and Ahsoka to help them find a second exit of the monastery. With the help of Anakins astromech R2-D2, they found a hangar. They headed there and when they did they called for a gunship. Once the gunship arrived, Andrew and Alpha Squad managed to get in when a Vulture droid came and shot the gunship off the hangar leaving Anakin and Ahsoka.

The gunship crashed but luckily everyone survived. When they got everyone out of the wreckage, Andrew tried to reach Captain Rex via comlink. Unfortunately, Captain Rex and 5 others were captured by the squad of battle droids. When General Kenobi's forces came to the planet, Andrew called for a gunship and were they picked up by Commander Cody and then headed back to the monastery to assist Captain Rex. When they got there Rex was in a firefight with the battle droids. Cody, Andrew and Alpha Squad landed and destroyed the rest of the droids thereby finishing the battle.



Andrew was called away for another battle shortly after.

The Battle Of Ryloth
"The Twi'leks on that planet can't wait forever, Master. The longer the Techno Union keeps control of Ryloth, the more difficult it'll be to free them." "I agree. We don't have much time." ―Anakin Skywalker and Mace Windu

Andrew and his newly formed "Omega Squad" within Larcon Legion were called to aid on Ryloth. After receiving pleas for assistance from Ryloth's senator, Orn Free Taa, the Jedi High Council dispatched Jedi General Anakin Skywalker and his Padawan, Jedi Commander Ahsoka Tano, to eliminate the Separatist blockade and make way for clone trooper forces from the Grand Army of the Republic to land on and liberate Ryloth. Despite heavy losses to their fleet, Skywalker and Tano were able to break the blockade, allowing Republic troop transports—commanded by High Jedi Generals Obi-Wan Kenobi and Mace Windu—to safely enter the Ryloth system. Once Kenobi, Clone Commander CC-2224, Andrew and Omega Squad, and the Republic unit Ghost Company had destroyed Nabat's proton cannons, Windu was able to land with his transports.

Omega squad later helped to retake Lessu. Mace Windu, Clone Commander CC-6454, nicknamed "Ponds", Omega Squad and Lightning Squadron suffered losses in a battle with Separatist tanks en route to retake Lessu, leading Windu to enlist the help of Sham Syndulla and his freedom fighters. After Tambor began a firebombing campaign of the Twi'lek villages, Syndulla finally set aside his previous quarrels with Taa and joined forces with Windu and the Republic. Once Windu and ARF troopers Razor and Stak were able to activate Lessu's plasma bridge, the only access to the city, the combined forces of Omega Squad, Lightning Squadron and freedom fighters entered the city and routed the Confederacy in what became known as the Battle of Lessu. Tambor's own tactical droid, TA-175, escaped with the Emir's shuttle and left him stranded, and Windu was able to capture Tambor. Thus concluding the battle for Ryloth.

The Second Battle of Geonosis
"I can not beleive we are back here again." "It is unfortunate, the resistance from the native Geonosians were stonger than we anticipated." - Obi-Wan Kenobi to Ki-Audi Mundi

Andrew, Alpha squad and the 501st were called to take Geonosis- again. The Republic's capital ships descended upon Geonosis and began to disgorge squadrons of BTL-B Y-wing starfighters, LAAT/i gunships, and LAAT carriers ferrying All Terrain Tactical Enforcers to the surface in heavy numbers. While Clone Captain Breaker and a Jedi Knight led the Y-wing starfighter squadrons in repelling groups of Geonosian Nantex-class territorial defense starfighters, Kenobi's assault force was the first to take flight, with Kenobi leading the way in his gunship. Kenobi and his gunships were met with heavy resistance from Geonosian J-1 semi-autonomous proton cannons and LR1K sonic cannon emplacements below, as well as the Nantex-class starfighters from above, but they were able to push through with covering fire from the Republic Y-wing starfighters, which also targeted the Separatist gunners on the ground. With Kenobi's forces underway, Skywalker's detachment—including Rex, Andrew, Alpha squad and Tano—departed shortly afterward, followed by the assault group led by Mundi and Jet from Yularen's flagship, the Resolute. Once all three strike forces had launched, Yularen recalled his fighter squadrons to the Republic's command ship for new orders. The gunship carrying Skywalker, Tano, Andrew, and Rex was one of the first to be shot down, but the group managed to break free from the wreckage and use the fallen craft as cover from the nearby Geonosian gunners and blaster cannons. Mundi, meanwhile, ordered Cody to land the AT-TE walkers shortly before Mundi's own gunship fell to heavy fire as well.



The Republic gunships are ravaged by Geonosian gunners while attempting to land. Cody landed with his men and AT-TE walkers to be greeted by incoming Nantex-class fighters. Although Cody advised Kenobi not to land because of the danger posed by the Separatist fighters, Kenobi and his gunship were forced down when the craft was targeted by the Geonosians. The gunship hit the surface and skidded across the ground before coming to a stop, leaving only Kenobi and trooper Trapper alive. An injured Mundi and Jet pulled themselves out of the remains of their gunship, which was just one of many to have been shot down in the area. Jet reported that Kenobi's forces had been the only ones to reach the landing zone, while Skywalker's AT-TE walkers had been decimated in his ongoing firefight with the Geonosians; Jet noted that Skywalker would continue to press on to the rendezvous point to meet with Kenobi. Mundi ordered the injured men among his own special ops forces to be loaded onto the AT-TE walkers with the objective of pressing on to make for a nearby bridge and join the rest of the troops at the rendezvous site.

Elsewhere, while overseeing the battle against the Geonosians in the area alongside Skywalker and Tano, Rex contacted Cody to request reinforcements for Skywalker but found that Kenobi would be unable to give support, as Kenobi's gunship had been shot down. Left on their own, Skywalker and Tano provided cover for Rex, Andrew and the rest of their troops to rush the Separatist blaster cannons.

Skywalker, Tano, Rex, Andrew, and their men arrived at the heavily entrenched fortress and were forced to take cover from the assailing B1 battle droids and B2 super battle droids high above. With the large amounts of incoming laser barrages, Skywalker and Tano each took a backpack filled with thermal detonators and ran toward the adjacent cliff, using grappling hooks to scale the face in order to set their charges to topple the wall. With the rest of the troops continuing to exchange fire with the battle droids, Rex and Andrew joined Skywalker and Tano on the top of the barrier, helping them to sever a pair of droidekas that were soon deployed from hatches along the barrier. Once Skywalker and Tano had tossed their primed detonator–full backpacks into the hatches, they, Andrew and Rex jumped off the wall shortly before it exploded. The Jedi used the Force to slow their fall and that of Rex and Andrew before landing and employing the same method to hold back the rubble. With the wall destroyed, Skywalker, Tano, and their forces pressed toward Point Rain. Skywalker, Tano, Rex, Andrew and their squad, who were making their way to Point Rain, happened upon the clifftop cave where Mundi's forces were just finishing off the smoldering Geonosians. Joining forces with Mundi, Skywalker contacted Yularen to request air support for the push to Point Rain, where Kenobi was in dire need of assistance. Having spent the time reallocating resources since Jet's previous request, Yularen dispatched an available Y-wing squadron to Point Rain to reinforce Kenobi's depleted strike force, which had become separated from the Republic's main forces. Commanding the small fighter contingent, Captain Breaker and his Jedi Knight compatriot led the Y-wing bombers through small arms fire from the Geonosians' LR1K and proton cannons and Armored Assault Tanks. After cutting through the Separatist ground artillery, the Y-wing squadron proceeded to Point Rain, where Kenobi and Cody were suffering numerous casualties at the hands of the Geonosians; the warrior insurgents had surrounded the Republic's staging area and were initiating flying attacks from the sky and speeder assaults on the ground. With his men pushed on all sides, Kenobi prepared to take up arms alongside his men in what he believed would be a final stand against the Geonosians. Then, Skywalker, Tano, and Mundi arrive to reinforce Kenobi's depleted strike force at Point Rain. At that moment, the Y-wing bombers arrived at Point Rain, dropping their munitions on the advancing Separatist tanks and halting the Geonosians' advance. With the rest of his troops pressing on, Kenobi was greeted by the arrival of Skywalker, Tano, Mundi, and their strike teams.

The Jedi regrouped and convened with their clone officers on the task still at hand: destroying the factories' shield generator at the Ray Shield Fortress, as the Geonosians were now finally in retreat. It was decided that Skywalker would lead a small squad into the shield and jam the Geonosians' scanners, rendering them unable to target the incoming AT-TE walkers. Once the walkers had taken out the shield generator, Mundi would then bring in the rest of the troops with the gunships. With little time to spare, the Republic forces quickly moved into position; after everything was ready, Skywalker and Tano initiated their attack, charging through the shield with their men. Though pressed with heavy fire from the Geonosians, the Jedi and clones pushed through the fortress's defenses and took cover in an outcrop close to the generator. From there, the team threw EMP grenades at the proton and LR1K cannons, temporarily disabling the Separatist guns.

Unopposed by the enemy's heavy fire, Cody led the AT-TE walkers in their march through the shield, and the walkers concentrated their fire on the shield generator and its artillery stations. As the shield was deactivated, Mundi, Rex, Andrew and their gunships landed with additional clone reinforcements to secure the Geonosian facility. All of the Geonosians at the Ray Shield Fortress were forced to surrender, and the injured Kenobi and Mundi returned to the fleet with the rest of the wounded for treatment. Left in charge of the Republic forces, Skywalker set out for Poggle the Lesser's primary droid foundry with Tano, Rex, Andrew and their assault force. As Poggle's primary droid foundry neared completion, Skywalker's forces formed a staging area a short way from the only bridge that crossed the deep canyon isolating the heavily fortified installation. Anticipating stiff Geonosian resistance, Republic commanders dispatched Luminara Unduli and her Padawan, Barriss Offee, with reinforcements for Skywalker's assault. Leading the way in their gunship, Unduli, Offee, and Clone Commander CC-1004, nicknamed "Gree," arrived at the Republic's staging area with more troops and gunships, and Unduli and Offee met with Skywalker and Tano to finalize a plan for the impending attack on the droid foundry. Although Skywalker had been preparing for a direct assault on the factory via the bridge, Unduli proposed an alternative plan that would minimize their casualties: using the catacombs under the facility, a team could infiltrate the building and plant explosives at its main reactor, thus effectively destroying the foundry from the inside. As Unduli had already had her Padawan memorize all 200 of the labyrinth's internal junctions, the mission to infiltrate the droid factory fell to Tano and Offee. Skywalker and Unduli, meanwhile, would launch a forward assault on the facility's main entrance to distract Poggle and allow the Padawans to complete their assignment. With their strategy in place, the Jedi set their plan into motion, synchronizing chronometers so that the Padawans' progress could be monitored.

Geonosians mount a defense of the primary droid foundry. While Tano and Offee with Andrew and Alpha squad began to descend the chasm in front of the droid factory to reach the entry point to the catacombs at the bottom of the canyon, Skywalker, Unduli, Rex, and Gree mobilized their men and marched their troops and AT-TE walkers toward the bridge parade-style. Despite their risky lack of cover, Skywalker and Unduli intended to make their frontal assault tempting enough to draw the factory's droid defenders into a fight. With ten garrisons of new droids ready, Poggle and TX-21 took the bait and deployed a large army of B1 and B2 battle droids to defend the foundry. As Skywalker and Unduli led their men to charge the droids, they found themselves confronted by groups of flying Geonosians launching a surprise attack from several spires behind them, and they were caught in a crossfire. In the canyon, Tano, Offee and Andrew made it to the other side of the trough, where Offee cut a hole in the canyon wall and opened the entrance to the catacombs. The two Padawans and five troopers made their way through the dense labyrinth and through a room of sleeping Geonosian warriors, unaware that they were being followed by a Geonosian whom they had accidentally awoken.

Skywalker and Unduli continued to cut through the opposing battle droids, and trooper Buzz used a Z-6 rotary blaster cannon to take out the airborne Geonosian insurgents. With the appearance of several droideka squads, Rex sent trooper Draa forward with a rocket launcher, and Draa quickly destroyed the droids. Trooper Boil, meanwhile, piloted an All Terrain Recon Transport against the Geonosians. The Geonosians' advance forces were further depleted by heavy fire from the Republic's AT-TE walkers. In response, Poggle authorized TX-21 to send out twenty units of their newly developed super tanks. The ray shielded vehicles were deployed from the foundry, and despite the Republic forces' attempt to halt the tanks' advance with AV-7 Antivehicle Cannons manned by clone tank gunners, Skywalker, Unduli, and their men were unable to stop the shielded tanks' approach.

In the meantime, Tano, Offee, Andrew and Alpha squad arrived at the primary foundry's control room and planted their thermal detonator charges around the large main generator. Learning of the two Jedi and five trooper's presence from the Geonosian spy, Poggle and TX-21 personally took a squad of Geonosian warriors and a super tank to greet the intruders. After activating their explosives, the Padawans' escape was cut short by the arrival of the Geonosian archduke and his super tank. Outside the foundry, Skywalker and Unduli learned from their chronometer readings that Tano and Offee had placed and activated the bombs. Immediately thereafter, the Separatist tanks released a barrage of rockets that annihilated the Republic's artillery line and AT-TE walkers, dealing heavy casualties. While the Geonosians and their super tank kept Tano and Offee occupied in the control room, other Geonosian warriors collected the primed explosives from around the reactor. Poggle entrusted TX-21 and his troops to thwart the Jedi's plan while he departed.

Tano, Offee, Andrew and Alpha squad are intercepted by TX-21 and a Geonosian squad at the foundry's reactor. After destroying TX-21 with an explosive charge but barely putting a scratch on the super tank, Tano made to retrieve the bombs from the Geonosians, jumping and hanging onto two of the flying warriors before they could escape from the Padawans. However, the Geonosians knocked Tano against the reactor, temporarily rendering her unconscious. Forced to defend the fallen Tano from the super tank's laser fire, Offee was unable to prevent the Geonosians from escaping into a hatch with the primed bombs however, Andrew and Alpha squad chased after them. Meanwhile, Skywalker and Unduli ordered Rex, Gree, and their men to fall back in order to lure the tanks onto the bridge, which the two Jedi Generals intended to collapse to eliminate the tanks. The clones' retreat baited the tanks onto the pass, and Skywalker and Unduli swung hand-over-hand under the bridge and across its underbelly, planting explosives at key points along its length. Reaching the other side of the bridge, Skywalker and Unduli detonated the charges, destroying the span and sending the tanks into the abyss below.

Even with the arrival of evacuation ships, Skywalker refused to leave without his Padawan, who was unresponsive to his transmissions. The two Jedi Generals' refusal to retreat forced them to face more B1 battle droids from Poggle's foundry. Inside the control room, Offee cut her way into the super tank and disabled its battle droid operators, commandeering the vehicle and saving Tano from being killed by the vehicle's cannon. A revived Tano joined Offee inside the tank, where the pair contemplated their dilemma: without the bombs, they would be unable to destroy the foundry and complete their crucial mission. Tano and Offee chose to instead use the super tank to fire at the generator, despite knowing that they would be unable to escape the subsequent explosion. Once Tano had relayed that decision to Skywalker and Unduli, who were battling the droids outside, she and Offee opened fire on the reactor, causing a massive chain of explosions to bring the foundry down. Unable to help their Padawans, a dismayed Skywalker and Unduli took cover as their droid adversaries were crushed by the debris from the collapsing droid foundry. After the dust had settled and the smoke had cleared, Skywalker desperately tried to contact Tano with his comlink, to no avail. Determined to rescue the buried Padawans from under the layers of rubble, Skywalker ordered the Republic's LAAT carriers to begin lifting the debris to search for Tano and Offee.

Trapped with Offee in the super tank deep below the surface with a limited supply of air, Tano used a power cell to boost her communicator's reception and signal Skywalker to their position. Skywalker, Unduli, and a squad of clones quickly proceeded to the indicated area, and with time running out, Skywalker and Unduli used the Force to levitate the heavy debris away from the Padawans' super tank. The freed Tano and Offee emerged from the wreckage, coughing and grimy but alive, and were reunited with their Masters. Following their success and ordeal in destroying the foundry, Tano and Offee were sent back to the fleet for some much-needed rest and accompanied a convoy of LAAT/i gunships ferrying the Republic's wounded troops back for treatment.

Andrew and Alpha squad was later found by where they had entered the catacombs with the two padawan's. They were rescued by the gunships. Andrew later headed back to his cruiser to leave for a very important mission.

The Second Battle Of Kamino
"This is our home, this is our war!" -Clone Trooper Echo (CT-21-0408) to cadets

"Look around we're one and the same, same heart, same blood. Your training is in your blood. And my blood is boiling for a fight!" -Clone Trooper Fives (CT-27-5555, later redesignated as ARC-5555) to cadets



To draw the Republic and the Jedi Order into their plan, the Confederacy allowed Republic forces to intercept an encoded transmission of Grievous and Ventress discussing their impending assault on Kamino. The communiqué was received aboard the Venator-class Star Destroyer Resolute, the flagship of Jedi General Anakin Skywalker and the 501st Legion of clone troopers (along with alpha squad), who were hosting High General Obi-Wan Kenobi aboard their Star Destroyer. After their crew decrypted the transmission's audio, Skywalker and Kenobi learned of the Separatists' targeting of Kamino, and their respective clone officers, Clone Captain Rex (CT-7567), Arc Commander/Commando Andrew (ARC-5150) and Marshal Commander Cody (CC-2224), were adamant about aiding the defense of their homeworld. Skywalker and Kenobi resolved to return to Kamino with the 501st Legion to notify the Republic defenses of the imminent attack and to provide extra protection against Grievous's battle group. Once they had transferred their troops to an Acclamator I-class assault ship, Skywalker and Kenobi proceeded to Tipoca City with the 501st Legion, while Admiral Wullf Yularen took the Resolute to join the nine other Venator-class Star Destroyers in the Republic's blockade of Kamino. Upon their arrival in Tipoca City, Skywalker and Kenobi met with Prime Minister Lama Su of Kamino and High General Shaak Ti, a Jedi Master who had been stationed on Kamino as the Jedi General in charge of clone trooper training.

Kenobi and Skywalker meet with Shaak Ti and Lama Su while the 501st Legion disembarks. Upon learning of the impending invasion, Su could not believe that the Separatists would risk pitting themselves against the fortified blockade of the world, though all of them took the threat seriously and made preparations to defend Tipoca City. Skywalker's and Kenobi's troops from the 501st Legion disembarked from the Acclamator-class transport, and ARC-5150, CT-7567 and CC-2224—nicknamed "Andrew," "Rex" and "Cody," respectively—took their men directly to the Military Complex, which was being prepared for the attack. In addition, the Republic's starfighter squadrons were mobilized to mount an air strike against a Separatist attack. Meanwhile in deep space, Grievous made his own final preparations for the assault, commanding his fleet of three Recusant-class light destroyers and ten Munificent-class star frigates from his command ship, a Providence-class carrier/destroyer. The re-entry capsules containing the landing force of battle droids and pieces of Trident-class assault ships were affixed to the main hulls of the Munificent-class star frigates as planned. The Separatists planned to attack Tipoca City first.

-Tipoca City-
Grievous's frigates endure extensive damage to deploy the disguised re-entry capsules. Emerging from hyperspace, Grievous's invasion fleet entered the Kamino system. Aided by the T-series tactical droid TV-94B, Grievous deployed his armada in attack formation Echo-3, with his Recusant-class light destroyers spearheading the assault. As the enemy fleet began its offensive, the ten Venator-class Star Destroyers of the Republic blockade held their position and returned the heavy turbolaser fire, supplemented by a pair of Arquitens-class light cruisers as well as Skywalker's and Kenobi's Acclamator-class transport. Commanding the Republic fleet with clone naval officers from the bridge of the Resolute, Admiral Yularen was intrigued by Grievous's head-on assault, as such a move was odd for the Confederate general, and included the anomaly in a report to the command at Tipoca City. The update was received by Kenobi, Ti, Su, and Andrew, Cody and Rex, who were overseeing the battle from the Military Complex's command center. As the Separatist armada pressed its attack, Cody had the Republic fleet shore up on defenses, while Ti—who had expected a larger invasion fleet—issued the order for the Republic's air strike. Kenobi meanwhile pondered why Grievous had forgone the element of surprise in favor of a direct approach for the attack.

Responding to Ti's command, Skywalker led the Republic's starfighter squadrons-including his own personal group, Shadow Squadron, with clone pilot Broadside among them—from Tipoca City into space aboard his Delta-7B Aethersprite-class light interceptor. Taking up position at the head of Shadow Squadron, Skywalker led groups of BTL-B Y-wing starfighters and ARC-170 starfighters against Grievous's opposing fleet, which responded by launching Vulture droid starfighters to combat the Republic squadrons. At the same time, V-19 Torrent starfighters were marshaled in the defense of the Republic blockade from Separatist Hyena-class bombers. Skywalker worked with another Jedi Knight, who was also flying a Delta-7B interceptor, to prevent the enemy ships from reaching the surface of Kamino. The two Jedi Knights spearheaded the assault on the frigates and destroyers of the Separatist armada, which quickly began to take heavy losses. The damage was intentional, however, as it allowed the re-entry capsules to detach from the frigates while giving credence to their cover as debris. To the Republic, it simply appeared that Grievous was sacrificing the frigates to protect his command ship. Grievous joined his aqua droids and B1 battle droids in the re-entry capsules and fell from orbit, through the atmosphere of Kamino, and straight into the waters surrounding Tipoca City, where they were received by Ventress.

Clone troopers defend Tipoca City from Separatist aqua droids and assault ships. As the Trident-class assault ships moved into position to deploy their battle droid troops, Tipoca City was put on alert, and clone troopers rushed to defend the Military Complex. Clone Commander Colt was placed in charge of his fellow elite Advanced Recon Commandos who were assigned to the defense of Tipoca City,and they took up position within the Military Complex. While the defense of Tipoca City's main hangar was being organized, ARC Commander Havoc sent 501st troopers CT-21-0408 and CT-27-5555, respectively nicknamed "Echo" and "Fives," to take up sniper positions on the bridge connecting the hangar deck to the cloning factories. Another of the Advanced Recon Commandos joined his clone brethren in fortifying the main hangar just as several Trident-class assault ships clambered onto the facility. The assault ships rammed their drill-spikes into the walls of the hangar's roof, penetrating the building to deploy their battle-ready aqua droids. A furious firefight ensued in the hangar, with the clones attempting to hold out against the seemingly never-ending line of aqua droids. Having arrived in one of the assault ships, Grievous personally led the assault on the clones, ordering his troops to spare none of the Republic troopers.

Several Advanced Recon Commandos, including ARC Commanders Havoc and Blitz, oversaw the defense of the main hangar against Grievous's invading troops. Maintenance clone 99 helped resupply the clones with DC-15A blaster rifles, though he was forced to abandon his post as the casualties around him mounted, particularly as Havoc fell to enemy blaster fire. Besieged by the Trident-class assault ships, Tipoca City began to take heavy damage, with a large amount of its factories' cloning chambers breaking apart as explosions gripped the city. While Grievous pushed further into the Military Complex, Ventress led her aqua droids against clone troopers on the city's outer decks, with the Confederate assault.

Across the Military Complex, young clone cadets were ushered to safety while their older brethren held out against the invading battle droids. Echo and Fives fought on their own battlefront, defending the bridge from squads of aqua droids. 99 arrived to supply them with more ammunition, at which point Fives inquired if there was a better vantage point in the area. At that moment, four B1 battle droids ambushed them, but Fives summarily tossed one of 99's thermal detonators at their attackers. What were thought to be more droids approaching through the smoke turned out to be five clone cadets who had been separated from their group en route to the barracks. Fives and Echo decided to escort them there, with 99 leading them on a shortcut through the city.

Fives, Echo, and 99 reached the barracks with their group of clone cadets, where Arc-Commander/Commando Andrew. Captain Rex and Commander Cody arrived to rally the young cadets to defend their homeworld. Fives and Echo also encouraged them to take up arms to protect their home. 99 brought Rex and Cody to the nearby armory to equip the cadets with weaponry for a defense of the barracks. The three of them returned with enough DC-15S blasters for the cadets, whom Rex positioned in the barracks' retractable sleeping chambers so that they could surprise the droids from behind. They were just in time, as Grievous arrived with his detachment of B1 battle droids and aqua droids. While the droids pressed into the barracks and began a firefight with Andrew, Rex, Cody, and their men.

While the Jedi were pursuing the Separatist agents out of Tipoca City, Andrew, Rex, Cody, Fives, and Echo mounted a defense of the barracks from the invading battle droids. The clones took up positions behind several crates to return the droids' blaster fire, with 99 supplying Andrew, Rex and Cody with thermal detonators to launch at the droids. Once the droids had passed the cadets' hiding spots in the sleeping chambers, Rex commed the cadets to open fire on the droids, effectively surrounding the droids and locking them in a crossfire. Cody soon used up their supply of thermal detonators, at which point 99 opted to restock their explosives from the armory. As 99 abandoned his cover behind the crates, much to his fellow clones' alarm, one of the droids' blaster shots caught him in the leg. Desperate to protect their injured comrade, Echo and Fives increased their blaster fire, with Fives forgoing his cover to eliminate the droids with his heavy blaster rifle. Yet 99 took two more shots, this time fatal, to his back. The battle left no time for the clones to mourn their fallen comrade, as Cody received word from Ti that the rest of the droids throughout the city had been pushed back to the main hangar. Ti entered the fray in the hangar, joining the Republic troops in battling the remaining groups of aqua droids.

In the main hangar, Ti and her men continued to cut through the trapped droids, with the clones using blasters, Z-6 rotary blaster cannons, and RPS-6 rocket launchers to annihilate the remaining assault ships. Once their hold on the hangar wall was compromised, the drill ships tumbled into the ocean below. On the outside platforms, ARC Commander Blitz led a squad of Advanced Recon Force troopers to target an assault ship that was about to penetrate a city wall with its drill-spike. Blitz had one of his troopers fire a rocket at the craft, causing it to crash onto a platform below. The remaining Separatist forces in Tipoca City were routed, resulting in a Republic victory.

Echo and Fives were promoted to ARC troopers shortly following the battle. After, Andrew was called away to assist on another battle.

The Battle of Umbara
Andrew, Alpha Squad and his newly formed "Shadow Tech Legion" were sent to retake the planet of Umbara.

After smashing though the Separatist blockade, the Republic fleet enters Umbara's atmosphere. Spearheaded by Z-95 Headhunters, Republic forces launched a blitz attack on the Separatist blockade fortifying Umbara. After quickly punching a hole through Separatist defenses, the Republic forces consolidated for a ground assault on the Umbaran capital. While Generals Obi-Wan Kenobi, Pong Krell, and Saesee Tiin took command over the southern front, Anakin Skywalker and the 501st Legion were given control over the northern front with the intention of flanking Separatist reinforcements and neutralizing the local Umbaran militia. Upon reaching the atmosphere, the ground forces were deployed in a squadron of gunships guarded by a wing of Headhunters.

A large number of AT-RT scout walkers were deployed from the gunships, and they charged the Umbaran militia, clearing the way for the clone infantry to land. The Umbarans employed tanks which utilized electric current-based weaponry; however, the scout walker's agility allowed them to easily outmaneuver several of the tanks and take them out from the side. Skywalker and his men touched down after a rough landing, losing at least one gunship to surface fire. The attack force proceeded onward to claim a ridge to the north that was viable as a potential staging area for Republic forces. The clone forces charged straight into the Umbaran's frontlines, forcing the enemy militia to fall back. However, the clones encountered a bizarre form of Umbaran fauna: a carnivorous, tentacled creature known as the vixus. The creature grasped several clones with its tentacular appendages and dragged them into its gaping maw. ARC trooper 5555 nicknamed "Fives" who was in the grasp of the creature, tricked it into swallowing a thermal detonator, destroying the monster from the inside.

Skywalker, Andrew and Rex lead the 501st's charge on Umbara. After securing the landing zone, the clone forces entrenched themselves on the ridge. As they rested, the Umbaran insurgents regrouped themselves for an ambush on the clone camp; by distracting the tired clones with millicreep assassin droids, the Umbarans circled around the camp and attacked the clones from the rear. In response, General Skywalker authorized a carpet bombing of the ridge, and ordered his men to fall back to the south, losing at least one AT-RT walker in the process. Upon reaching the fallback zone, two BTL-B Y-wing starfighters led by Commander Odd Ball carpet bombed the ridge, wiping out the last of the Umbaran resistance in the area. As the clone forces regrouped for the imminent attack on the Umbaran capital city, General Pong Krell arrived, relaying an order from the Jedi Council requesting Skywalker's return to Coruscant, an order which apparently originated from Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. Skywalker reluctantly followed the order, leaving Krell to lead the 501st in the interim. Krell then ordered his men to march on the capital.

Along the way, they were attacked by a pair of Banshees, which Krell killed so that the battalion could resume marching onwards. When Krell and the 501st reached the outskirts of the Capital, Krell ordered the troops to launch a full frontal assault instead of using preemptive surprise attacks. Captain CT-7567 nicknamed "Rex" complied with the order and then led his troopers and AT-RTs onto the main road to assault the capital. As the 501st marched along the road, they ran into a minefield, killing troopers Oz and Ringo. ARC trooper Fives was able to find more mines and a way through them. The 501st were soon ambushed by the Umbaran militia, but held their ground, although they were too exposed to hold out for long. Captain Rex then ordered the 501st to retreat in order to gain a better fighting position. They were then able to rejoin Krell and the rest of the 501st. Together they were able to repel the Umbarans. After that, Krell criticized Captain Rex for giving up the road. Rex and Fives were able to convince the general that they did what was best for their men. After Krell gives Rex a dubious compliment, the Umbarans launch a counterattack on the 501st.

-Taking the Airfield-
Captain Rex and the 501st hold the line. Krell and the 501st continued to hold their positions despite the relentless attacks of the Umbaran militia from both ground and air. The 501st could not break through to support General Kenobi's battalion. Kenobi then contacted Krell, ordering him to take out an airbase being used as a supply base for the capital. The 501st regrouped and proceeded to the airbase. When the 501st got within distance of the airbase, Rex suggested that they try and scout for another way in. Krell, knowing the urgency of Kenobi's situation, ordered the captain to take the battalion through a gorge single file. Rex's men started to criticize Krell's orders and tactics knowing that their casualties would be high but he was able to convince them to go through with it. As he started the attack, Rex divided his men into three groups, with Fives, Hardcase and himself being in charge of these groups. As the 501st made their way through the gorge, they were attacked by caterpillar tanks which they subdued with their rocket launchers and thermal detonators. The 501st then resumed their advance towards the airbase before being forced to retreat by enemy fire from spider cannons. Krell then ordered Rex to push the attack; his men tried using rocket launchers on the spider cannons, but to no avail.

Rex then ordered Fives, Andrew and Hardcase to acquire a couple of Umbaran starfighters and use them against the tanks. However, Krell ordered Rex to launch a full-scale attack. Rex and his men then continued to hold their ground against the tanks. The three troopers passed the sensor fence surrounding the airbase by climbing a tree. After Fives, Andrew and Hardcase made it over, Fives blew up the tree to distract the Umbarans. Fives, Andrew and Hardcase were then able to get into a couple of starfighters and successfully destroyed the tanks, with Krell gazed upon the destruction with a love of war, contrary to Jedi ideals. Krell then sent clone sergeant CC-1119, nicknamed Appo, and the rest of the battalion in to take the airbase. The 501st was successful in taking the airbase. The battalion then rounded up the prisoners and held the base before moving on to aid Kenobi in taking the capital.

-Attack on the supply ship-
Fives and Rex argue over whether or not General Krell's orders should be obeyed. After Krell and the 501st conquered the airbase for the Republic, the Umbarans then stepped up their attacks, trying to retake their airbase. The Jedi made sure that all security measures were reconfigured and that the battalion stayed on alert to anything, while ARC trooper Fives worked on examining the Umbaran starfighters. Krell was then contacted by Kenobi, who congratulated him on taking the airbase, though the latter wanted to wait until the battle was over to celebrate. Kenobi then informed Krell that his battalion was being pushed away from the capital by long-range missiles and that the capital was being resupplied by a Separatist supply ship within orbit, guarded heavily by the Separatist armada—which outnumbered the Republic vessels. Krell, however, stated that they would have to take the capital regardless of these missiles and said that he would meet Kenobi and his battalion at the rendezvous point. Kenobi's transmission was then lost. Krell then ordered Rex to ready the battalion to move out in 12 hours to advance on the capital; the captain then asked Krell if he should try and get a message through to Kenobi to coordinate their attack in light of the recent threat. Krell knew, however, that like himself and his battalion, Kenobi had his hands full and asserted that they needed to throw everything they have at the capital. Rex told Krell that they would be walking into a blast zone, but the Jedi disagreed and ordered him to prepare his troops.

After Rex briefed his troops, ARC trooper Fives told Rex that they have broken the Umbaran access codes and that they can use the captured starfighters to infiltrate the supply ship and destroy it, thus cutting off supplies to the capital. Rex told Krell of this plan, but Krell does not wish to waste men on this plan knowing they will need everyone to help take the capital. Despite Krell's orders, Fives decided to go through with the mission despite the risk of court-martial so he, ARC-5150 nicknamed "Andrew," Hardcase, and CT-5597 nicknamed "Jesse" then go into a hangar and train themselves at flying the captured starfighters, but Hardcase was having trouble at flying the craft. Krell was soon informed of this. Fives told Krell that it's just a safety drill, but Krell however does not believe it. After Hardcase accidentally shoots the hangar door apart, Krell comes down. Hardcase then figures out how to fly the starfighter. When Krell demands to know what happened, Fives and Hardcase tell him that it was an enemy booby trap and that they were lucky they got in control before the starfighter went haywire. Krell then orders the starfighters to be locked down, despite Hardcase's objections. After Krell left, Andrew, Jesse and Hardcase volunteered to fly with Fives, regardless of the consequences. Fives told them his plan knowing how when General Skywalker was a kid, blew up a ship by hitting its reactors from the inside. Rex was then conducting a perimeter sweep when Fives, Andrew, Jesse and Hardcase tell him that they intend to go through with their plan. Rex reluctantly gives them permission to do so, but tells them that if they get caught, he won't be able to help them.

Fives, Andrew, Jesse and Hardcase then commandeered the captured starfighters and made their way into orbit towards the supply ship. When they got there, they were in the middle of a space battle between the Republic and Separatist fleets. When Krell found out about this, Rex told him that it's merely a reconnaissance mission. Meanwhile, the rogue troopers then make their way through the battle towards the supply ship. The battle droids then saw that the fighter pilots were clones and the tactical droid in charged was informed of this. When the droids start closing the doors, Hardcase shot them but damages his fighter. The tactical droid then ordered the defenses to increase and the reactor's ray shields to be activated. Just when the rogue troopers make their shot on the reactors,the ray shields come up. The rogue clones then came under ground fire from the droids. Hardcase then leaves his fighter and takes one of his missile pods into the reactor room and tells Fives and Jesse to get out. Just as Fives, Andrew and Jesse leave, Hardcase rams the missile pod into the reactors, thus destroying the supply ship. After Fives, Andrew and Jesse land they were taken to see Krell. Though Krell knows it was a brave act, they disobeyed his orders. Rex tried to take the blame for this mission, but Fives insisted that it was his idea. Krell told Fives, Andrew and Jesse that they will be court-martialed and executed.

-Execution-
"Let me be clear about the punishment for the treason committed by ARC trooper 5555, ARC Trooper 5150 and CT-5597: they will be court marshaled, they will be found guilty, and they will be executed. Make no mistake. For crossing me, you will pay the price." ―Jedi General Pong Krell

The execution squad lines up to execute Andrew, Jesse and Fives. After the event in which Fives, Andrew, Jesse, and Hardcase (Who sacrificed himself to destroy the supply ship) disobeyed Krell's orders, Rex tried to talk Krell out of court-martialing Fives and Jesse and tells him there is no need and that the troops feel Krell is putting their lives in danger needlessly. Krell only replied that the the court-martial is needed to show the clones who is in charge. After a short lived talk, Krell decides that the execution of Fives, Andrew, and Jesse will be more effective than court-martialing them. He ordered Rex to prepare a squad for execution. Shocked, Rex tried again to reason with the general, only to be yelled at. Doing as he is told, Rex retrieved Fives, Andrew, and Jesse from their prison cells. Rex told them that he tried to reason with Krell with no success.

He and the other troopers set them up along the wall of the airbase. Dogma, the leader of the execution, asked Fives, Andrew, and Jesse if they would like to be blindfolded—with no response, Dogma took it as a no. As the execution team prepared to fire, Fives stopped them and said that what they are about to do is wrong and that they should not listen to Krell's order for execution. The troops begun to wonder if Fives is right, but not caring at all, Dogma ordered them to fire. The troopers fired but avoid hitting Fives, Andrew, and Jesse. Dogma begins to question why the troopers didn't kill Fives and Jesse, only for Rex to step in and tell him that their actions in destroying the supply ship was heroic and that if all clone troopers in the 501st legion were rewarded with execution for heroic actions, then one day they would all face a similar fate. The troopers then untie the two clones. Up in the tower, Krell was furious to hear that the clones didn't killed Fives, Andrew and Jesse and reprimanded Rex for it. Soon an incoming message came through and a clone trooper reported that the Umbarans have stepped up their defenses and have recently ambushed a clone platoon and seizing clone armor and weapons and have disguised themselves as clone troopers. Krell puts the execution on hold and orders Rex and his men to prepare to march on the capital and reminds him to tell his men that the enemy has now disguised themselves as clone troopers.

-Killing our own brothers-
Soon after, Rex prepared to lead the forward platoon through the briar fens of the Umbaran wilderness. He warned them to stay alert, since the Umbarans may use the captured Republic supplies to create confusion. When Rex and the rest of his men came under fire from the disguised Umbarans, the troops then set up their mortars and open fire on the enemy. The firefight between both sides continued, with Krell watching with contempt, till Rex discovered that the "disguised" Umbarans were actually clones. Rex then ordered his men to stop firing, telling them to take off their helmets to see that they were all clones. Both sides revealed themselves to be clones. Rex then found the 212th battalion platoon leader, Waxer who was mortally wounded in the firefight. Rex asked Waxer who gave the order to attack them who told Rex that Krell told his platoon that the Umbarans had stolen clone armor. Waxer then cries before he died. Soon after this Rex then rounded his men and the remnants of Waxer's platoon. Rex tells them that they are going to arrest Krell for treason against the Republic. Rex then tells them that if anyone did not wish to do this, to step out of the line. All of Rex's men stepped forward to arrest Krell.

-The Death of Pong Krell-
Rex leads the 501st and the 212th in an attempt to arrest General Krell. Rex and the 501st, along with the remainder of Waxer's platoon prepare themselves to arrest Krell. Along the way, Rex frees Fives and Jesse from their imprisonment and gives them back their armor and weapons. Rex and his men then go to the control tower to confront Krell. Rex then states that General Krell is relieved of his command, but Krell tells Rex that he and his men are committing mutiny. Krell then admits he did tell his men to kill each other. Just as the clones close in on him, Krell subdued them, killing some them with his double bladed lightsabers and then escaped into the jungle, demonstrating a new-found passion for the dark-side and for violence. Rex ordered his men to go into the jungle and find him. Dogma, remaining loyal to Krell, tries to stop his brothers, calling them traitors. After Rex convinced him to stand down, Dogma was taken to the brig. When Rex and the rest of his troops marched in the thick of the briar fen, Krell subdued one of the squads. Krell, using the force, taunted Rex and his men, saying that he has been using them all along, laughing at them. Tup then had Rex lure the corrupt Jedi Master over to him. When Tup managed to lure Krell's attention from the rest of the clones, the general then runs into a vixus. Although Krell was able to free himself from the vixus's grasp, he was stunned by Tup, and the troops placed a pair of binders on his hands and was taken into custody.

When Rex questioned Krell about his actions, he admitted that he has turned traitor and tells Rex that he foresees that the Jedi will lose the war, and that a New Order will arise, and that in exchange for betraying the Republic, he will become Count Dooku's new apprentice. This surprises Dogma, since he was one of Krell's most loyal troopers. Rex then discovers that Krell had sabotaged the airbase's communications and that General Kenobi's battalion had long since taken the capital. Unfortunately the Umbaran forces are on their way to retake the airbase. Captain Rex then orders the troops to prepare for a full scale attack. When Fives warns Rex that if Krell is freed, he would undermine the Republic's foothold. So Rex decides to execute the fallen general. Rex, Andrew and Fives then go down to the brig and let Dogma out. Rex then tells Krell to face the wall and get down on his knees. Krell taunts Rex that he's afraid to pull the trigger. Just when Krell finished his last taunt, Dogma took one of Fives's pistols and shot Krell for betraying every one of his men. Rex then got word that Kenobi's battalion have all sectors secured and that the enemy has been defeated, marking the end of the invasion on Umbara.

Aftermath
With Umbara secured, the Republic was able to retake the Separatist stronghold. However, Rex didn't feel like celebrating and instead wondered what was the point of the war and what would happened to the soldiers when it ends. The fall of Krell near the end of the battle demonstrated that Jedi could fall to the dark side if they fall to despair with the way the war was going.

Following the battle, Andrew then dismantled "Shadow Tech Legion" and rejoins "Larcon Legion" and reformed "Omega Squad."

The Battle Of Coruscant
"An attack on Coruscant seemed unthinkable. So when the CIS struck at the heart of the Republic, few were prepared. For X1 and I, it was just another chance to prove ourselves in battle." ―Clone trooper X2

The sith, Darth Sidious, Count Dooku along with General Grievous planned an attack to "capture" chancellor palpatine.

Andrew,"Omega" Squad, and Larcon Legion happened to be in orbit of Coruscant when the separatists launched their attack. Andrews cruisers were being hit hard by confederacy dreadnoughts. In an a attempt to escape down to the planet, Andrew and his cruiser evacuated to gunships and shuttles and blasted off seconds before their cruiser was blown to pieces. While heading down to the planets surface they receive a distress call from an old friend, ARC Captain Fordo.

Reuniting with an old friend
"Distress call: 0-8-4-5-72 this is Captain Fordo. Does anyone copy?" "This is ARC-5150 "Andrew," I copy you old friend." -Andrew replying to Fordo's distress call

Andrews gunships land close to Fordo's position but will have to get to him on foot. Andrew contacts Fordo via comlink saying that their coming to help. After contacting Fordo, Andrew got all of his men together then started heading to Fordo's position. Andrew and his men were attacked by a squad of battle droids, super battle droids and droidekas. Luckily, Andrew and his men were prepared for any kind of attack. Andrew called his demolitionist "Doom" who threw about a handful of grenades and fired a free rockets at the droids, destroying all of them. Andrews latest rookie "Jared" was shocked by "Dooms" actions.

-Jared: "Woah! They call you "doom" for a reason."

-Andrew: "Yea, seriously. Glad I ain't a seppie right now."

-Doom: "Yup."

Andrew and his men press on. Now they reach a surrounded Fordo. Andrew and his men see him surrounded and bring the heat. Within seconds were all the droids destroyed. Andrew and Fordo greet.

-Andrew: "Glad we got here when we did."

-Fordo: "Yea me to."

-Andrew: "It's been a long time since we have seen each other."

-Fordo: "Yes it has hasn't it."

Both Andrew and Fordo get a beep from their comlinks. Fordo has to leave to help a squad of clones in the city. Andrew has to report immediately to orbit to help in the space battle with the 501st. A starfighter lands for Andrew nearby. Andrew then commands his men of Larcon Legion to assist Fordo however they can while he is gone. He then jumps in his starfighter and heads for orbit.

Larcon Legion
Andrew was one of the first to join Larcon Legion (Although when he joined it was named Zillo Squad) along with Galen Neeligroam, Sara Joe, Kyp Durk, Rex Gwieldfighters, and the leader himself, Leshaak Larcon.

He started as a trooper (of course) and worked his way up to the rank of General and held it for about 2 years. Then he left to create his squad "Shadow Tech Legion." About a year later, he came back and (since he was there before) he was immediately promoted to a commander. He held the rank of commander for about 6 months then was promoted back to a General. He has held that rank ever since.

He has made many friends along the way. Mostly the generals, but he has made a lot of friends from that squad.

Equipment
Clone Trooper Armor-

He was equipped with 2 Dc-17m pistols, a Dc-17m Rifle (with attachments), Dc-15a rifle, and a Dc-15s blaster.



For normal assignments he wore his custom/modified red ARC trooper armor or commando armor (depending on mission).

When he did assigments for the 501st Legion, he wore his custom/modified Blue ARC trooper or commando armor (depending on mission).



Bounty Hunter Armor-
