The confrontation known as the Battle of Ord Vaug transpired in 17 BBY during the Galactic Empire's Imperial Era. It occurred as an element of the Reconquest of the Rim's Western Reaches Operation, which was an effort by Imperial forces to subdue remaining Separatist holdouts. The distinguished General Hurst Romodi oversaw the operation on the ground. HoloNet News teams documented both the Battle of Ord Vaug and the preceding Battle of Kelrodo-Ai, elevating Romodi's profile among Imperial citizens. Furthermore, the battle served as the basis for an Imperial holodrama production.
