A relatively small skirmish between the forces of the Rebel Alliance and the Empire occurred on the planet Talus during the era of the Galactic Civil War. The Imperial forces suffered the loss of an AT-AT, an AT-ST, and a single TIE bomber as a result of the conflict.
After Rebels downed the TIE bomber, the pilot, fortunate enough to survive, managed to perform a crash-landing in close proximity to the combat zone, avoiding an explosion. The pilot then attempted to contact Imperial Officer Ceth Laike to request extraction, but he was promptly murdered by a band of Binayre pirates seeking to scavenge parts from the wrecked ship.
The clash between the Empire and the Rebellion was a notable location within the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies. This massively multiplayer online roleplaying game was developed by Sony Online Entertainment and distributed by LucasArts, before its servers were shut down on December 15, 2011. This point of interest was implemented into the game via the "Publish 1" update, which was released on August 3, 2003.
