An artillery battery represented a unit within the Imperial Army.
This formation consisted of four artillery lines. In total, it included a complement of one hundred fifty-two soldiers, along with twenty-three support staff, and seventy droids. The battery's firepower varied based on the setup of its artillery lines; it could deploy sixteen heavy or medium artillery cannons, or alternatively, thirty-two lighter artillery weapons.
It was possible to bolster artillery batteries with the addition of two assault platoons and two more artillery lines.
