It has been three weeks since the Second Battle of Geonosis. With a major amount of Separatist Droid foundries taken offline and the capture of Poggle the Lesser, the Republic seems intent on pushing forward against the enemy.
However, trouble has begun to stir in the outer rim. A Republic base holding a prototype Hyperdrive has been attacked, and the valuable piece of technology stolen by the Separatists. The Hyperdrive contains necessary coordinates and access codes to reach the Inner Republic Systems, including Kamino and Coruscant.
At the request of the Chancellor and the Senate, the 212th and 501st Clone Legions, along with a Republic Task Force led by Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Ahsoka Tano are dispatched to the last known location of the Separatist fleet that took the Hyperdrive.

The Frontier Militia is on the offensive. With the strategic if not pyrrhic victory at the Battle of Typhon, the IMC Remnant Fleet has suffered a massive loss of men and resources, including the Fold Weapon.
However, Militia spies have reported that the IMC has encountered a new faction outside of the Frontier and stolen from this faction a prototype FTL Drive capable of bypassing most traditional orbital defenses, such as those on the Militia headquarters of Harmony.
Sarah Briggs, alongside the 7th and 4th Militia Fleets, led by the newly-constructed Supercarrier James MacAllan II, leads the Militia in pursuit of the IMC in possession of this FTL Drive, and have tracked them to the distant world of Fenstone.
However, neither the Militia or the IMC knew that their actions would have consequences in a galaxy unknown to either side...
