The 1st Battle of Kuat

"'Kuat was one of our most vital targets, Within those planets they hold massive shipyards and within the atmosphere they hold a single Super Star Destroyer, We had to take it out' -Admiral Yi on the Battle of Kuat"

The 1st Battle of Kuat was a major battle between the New Republic Navy, involving Threnody Fleet and Alpha Fleet, against the Reincarnation defense force above it in early 6 AB., It ended with the complete destruction of the Reincarnation, with its leader dying and sustaining heavy losses and casualties.

Early battle
The early battle started with the New Republic coming from hyperspace and starting its attack on the fleet. Their main goal on this one was destroying the SSD above the planet and taking over the shipyards. Commodore Jak Arliozo was sent to do the later while Ackbar focused on finishing the former.

Mid battle
During the battle, Jak Arliozo was forced out of the shipyards and the Reincarnation had complete control over it using the shipyard's defenses against the New Republic. Ackbar led the rest of the fleet against the defense fleet and though sustaining heavy losses, managed to take out many of the opposition vessels.

Late battle and conclusion
The battle started to end in the New Republic's favor once the SSD over Kuat was taken out. With it's leader onboard and presumed dead, the Reincarnation was in disarray. The Republic quickly moved to take out the remaining ships and it ended in a loss for the Reincarnation. The planet was swiftly captured though the shipyards remained in conflict. Reincarnation loyalists and strongholds would hold on to the shipyards as long as possible making it difficult for New Republic forces to take over. Following the immediate aftermath, a long campaign to take the shipyards was launched though New Republic forces were spread thinly across the Galaxy so the shipyards would not be captured until a few months later.

Legacy
With the fall of the Reincarnation, only two known SSD's were left in the galaxy, the Kanon and the Reaper. This was the first major Imperial Remnant to go down after the official signing of the Concordance and it showed that if you disobeyed the treaty, the New Republic would defeat you. In the coming months, opposition Imperial Remnants would see to try to take Kuat for their own.
