The Battle of Ploo took place immediately following the Battle of Aquaris. The Mandalorian First Assault Fleet remained at the previous location for a short while, to allow for wounded soldiers to heal in their bacta tanks. Afterwards, Mandalore Cadden Blackthorne ordered the fleet to progree to Ploo, where the first of three assaults would grant them the Xen'Chi's attention. Due to the invasion path continuing to be severed during their efforts, they were aware that the defense forces would only grow thicker with each attack. This battle was to mark the beginning of the the shock troopers' trial by fire.
The Battle[]
Unlike the previous battles in Operation: Dissection, the Battle of Ploo required three fronts to be successful. Two of its moons were inhabitable, and inhabited, and Xen'Chi forces were stationed on both. This required expert timing and tact to win the battle. Cadden devised a plan to engage the Xen'Chi fleet head-on, allowing time for Garen Starfall and Aeorn Mors to lead their troops to battle on the two inhabited moons of Ploo. It was to be a joint assault, with supercommandos on one surface and shock troopers on another, and would prove to be one of the Mandalorians' bloodiest battles to-date.
