Second Battle of Geonosis

A few days later, Onyx Battalion was tasked with assaulting a heavily fortified CIS airfield, containing the majority of the Separatist's anti-air defenses in the region. With their LAAT's grounded, the 91st was forced to adopt a more mechanized approach. Despite taking heavy casualties initially, a combined arms offensive ultimately overwhelmed the droid garrison and allowed for our aerial assets to join the battle. After tending to their wounded, Kyber Company was able to mount an assault on a nearby mining operation crucial to the Separatist's efforts to field more droid armies in the sector. A two-pronged approach targeting both ends of the canyon allowed the Republic to seize valuable industrial assets with. Although Onyx Battalion had a significant number of casualties, the mission was ultimately a success.

Repubic intelligence had discovered an expansive CIS stronghold consisting of a network of underground tunnels & caves, and it was once again up to Kyber Company to step up to the task. However, they had the additional challenge of rescuing the civilian hostages trapped inside this fortress. The 91st was able to complete their initial assault on the droid forces in the region with minimal casualties thanks to the help of the LAAT pilots of Nova and a HAVw-6 Juggernaut, aptly nicknamed "Big Juggus". After combing through every cave and tunnel buried beneath the Geonosian soil, every civilian hostage was recovered, and the operation was considered a resounding success.

As the high of their consecutive victories was beginning to wear off, the 91st received some disturbing news. A squad of shinies on patrol had been ambushed by commando droids, and their gear had been taken by their assailants. Now fueled by a desire for revenge, Kyber Company set out for the nearest known CIS outpost to look for answers. Despite heavy resistance, the 91st was able to overwhelm and capture the CIS outpost, with a last-minute rescue from Archangel helping turn the tide of battle in favor of the Republic. Vital intel was recovered at this outpost that helped pinpoint the location of the commando droids responsible for the ambush. The perpetrators were located & disposed of, and the stolen equipment was recovered fully intact.

The very next day, Onyx Battalion received yet another mission that took them back underground and into the tunnels. The Separatists had a munitions depot beneath the surface that the Republic needed to bury once and for all. Despite multiple artillery barrages and stiff resistance from the droid garrison, the 91st was able to force their way inside with the support of Beskar's armored assets. The tunnels were collapsed, and intel was successfully recovered.
