Fourth Battle of Felucia

The Fourth Battle of Felucia was a four-day armed conflict between Jedi General Talben Foelin's Galactic Alliance forces, the Jungle Felucians under the leadership of Tarkaal, and the Yuuzhan Vong on Felucia in 29 ABY.

Battle Synopsis
Tarkaal and his people had been pestering the Yuuzhan Vong's foothold on their planet since they first occupied the planet in 27 ABY. When General Foelin and his forces, including Special Forces Captain Joal Lebon, came to liberate the planet, the two factions immediately saw each other as allies. Though their efforts initially went well, by the second day the Vong were able to turn the battle around, pushing the Galactic Alliance troops almost back to their landing zone. It was during these bleak hours of the battle that Captain Lebon suffered his fateful injury, knocking him out of the battle.

It was only through the inspiring leadership of General Foelin and the sheer tenacity with which the Jungle Felucians harried Vong's forces that the battle was eventually won and the Yuuzhan Vong were driven from Felucia.

Aftermath
It was during this battle that Foelin rescued Lebon after his near-fatal injury, causing them to become life-long friends. Since the Felucians' war against the Yuuzhan Vong had been won, the other shamans felt it was necessary to remove Tarkaal's Dark Side influence on the planet, resulting in his exile. Thus, the Second Second Battle of Felucia is what ultimately brought Foelin, Lebon, and Tarkaal together. Additionally, the elimination of the Vong allowed the Ithorians to settle on Felucia as refugees.

Trivia
