The World of Raptorious III had been the sight of many battles and conflicts over the eras, first during the Pre-Republic when the armies of the Ancient Hutt Empire and Xim's Empire clashed over the world's resources. The surface of the world had been ravaged by the conflict, many of its more valuable resources were destroyed or taken off world...leaving the survivors with nothing but the corpses of the fallen armies all around them. The Holy Order of the Jedi Knights would establish a large temple complex on the world as a training academy during the Old Republic, things were peaceful upon the world for the first time in millenia. However the peaceful situation wouldn't last and the world's natural destructive properties would give way to an immense invasion by the Sith Empire under the leadership of the Sith Emperor Vitiate. Taking the settlements one by one and burning those that didn't submit to the advancing horde, underneath the tyrannical leadership of the Lord Menegroth, with his vast imperial army approaching the temple and the the lives of the populace in peroil. The Jedi Knights and the Republic Forces would stage a dangerous retaliatory strike that would take them deep into the enemy's defensive line. Neither having the strength of arms nor the manpower to strive the sith offworld, their only tactic being to wait them out until the sith empire required them on another battlefield. Lord Menegroth understood the mareit of the tactic after having witness a majority of his men being ambushed and destroyed along the way to the next settlement that they were about to conquer.
He staged a ruthless attack on the very heart of the temple itself, the jedi knights and the republic forces stationed there would defend to the last man, every jedi slain would be 10 sith troopers in return. The Jedi Order was outnumbered and the forces of menegroth, although badly bent by the end of the finding would find themselves marching straight through the temple into the vast hall, slaughtering and pillaging without mercy before the vary eyes of the remaining jedi within. The Last Jedi Master within the temple would engage menegroth in single combat as the battle for the temple raged around them, bodies of dead jedi and sith would litter the very ground that they fought on. Until the master gained the upper hand when in a single moment, the dark lord was distracted and slain near the council room. Outnumbered by more than a hundred, the jedi master would prepare to give their all to defend the people within the temple that remained, although the imperial army had won the day to a tee, their slain commander would lower their morale and cause them to turn away from the temple and back to the sith empire who needed them to counter a new republic offensive. The Jedi Master and the others within would eventually perish because of their injuries with no attempt by the jedi order to recolonize the temple and recover the artifacts within....
The Temple itself would be a large complex of a single main temple and various wings within. A large statue of a jedi would also be present above the temple, signalling its ownership to the Holy Order of the Jedi Knights, Although much of it was ruin there were extensive fortifications that could be seen from the atmosphere because they were added to it once the Treasure Hoarders took over the temple and turned it into a enclave of some kind. They had set up various AA Batteries along the hilly landscape and installed many more defensive features to prevent a force of invaders from trying to enter and stop them from taking the artifacts within. Monkrove had heard of the legendary artifacts inside and decided to bring a small invasion force to the world to stop the treasure horaders from doing any more damage and trying to sell the artifacts on the black market. The permierer would be patrolled by droid and organic forces to slow down any invasion force, although they weren't that difficult that it would require an entire army to do so. It would take a team of specialized people to siege this makeshift fortress....
"I am spotting several lifesigns within the temple grounds, and much more on the perimeter guarding the temple ruins. It will not be easy to make it anywhere near them without cover" The Captain would speak behind the binoculars, lowering them once he had gained enough information on where they were in the landscape itself. The Lord Kreigsmeiser's Forces would have established small but easily defendable camp in a mountain range near the temple itself. Setting up technology and equipment to monitor the situation downblow, beyond reach of the jammer technology of the enemy that covered much of the grounds of the temple. When they had arrived to the world of raptorious III, they didn't expect such heavy resistance from the treasure hoarders who had set up various AA batteries to cover the grounds. The Guild of Treasure Hoarders in general would be a known gang among the galaxy, camping and fortifying old ruins in the hope that they might spring a profit by the discovery of ancient artifacts that would be a small fortune on the black market. Monkrove would be sitting up near the edge of his camp, surveying the area with his power armor and power hammer. "There isn't much we can do until we take out those AA Batteries near the temple, then we would be able to move in more supplies and more troops to the area. But I will have to wait until my reinforcements arrive" Monkrove said to himself, hopping down from a tree that he was on back into the camp. Taking a seat inside the command tent and grabbing a cup of tea to go along with his current rations. He had decided that this job would require more expert knowledge and more specialized skills than he had and had decided to send out request to various people within the galaxy to help during the mission into the temple.
Having given them the coordinates to his camp, he would notify the guardsman at the entrance into the camp to watch out for them. Monkrove gave them instructions to guide the people into his command tent, where he was currently overlooking a crude but effective layout of the various AA Batteries and Troop Placements for the Treasure Horaders. Going over the operation plan with his small but effective force and the two generals that he had decided to bring with him for the eventual siege, that he had decided to take with him away from his world that he ruled. Stroking his long white beard in an utmost thinking manner, he would wait for the people to arrive at his camp so that he may go over the plan and get there input and suggestion before proceeding to engage with the Treasure Horaders with his forces while the specialized team would sneak into the temple and save the artifacts within and give them over to the proper authorities.
