Narration: "Separatist planet! Having captured several outposts on the snow planet of Rhen Var, Nute Gunray holds a critical point of this battle. Now< Republic forces attempt to win back these outposts, or die trying!"
Battle Droids pace around the inside of the main Separatist outpost on the snow planet of Rhen Var. As they assemble, Nute Gunray appears, flanked by a couple of Snow Droids. Gunray calls out, "Make sure you protect our outposts well, we cannot afford the Republic to get near us". One Battle Droid says, "Yes! Because we all know what Gunray is like when Jedi go near him!". All the Battle Droids begin to laugh at Gunray, who isn't very amused, and snarls angrily "Take OUT that damaged Battle Droid". The Snow Droids flanking Gunray immediately move aside and, having grabbed the culprit, shoot the Battle Droid down. A hush goes around the rest of the Battle Droids, having been shown an example...
On the hilltops, a Republic strike force is gathered around a hologram table. Ahsoka Tano turns impatiently to Anakin Skywalker, "How much longer are we going to have to stay here? I'm in need of some action!" and Anakin replies "You're not the only one, Snips!". Just then, Captain Rex, Commander Wolffe and Kit Fisto join them. Fisto tells them, "Our plan of attack is to create a distraction, while the other squad must infiltrate, and take out this first outpost". Just then, Plo Koon arrives wearing a huge amount of cold weather gear. Ahsoka nudges Anakin, "He seems well coated for the job!" and they both fall into silent laughter. Anakin, Ahsoka, Rex and R2-D2 then take the 501st Clones around the side of the outpost, while Fisto, Plo, Wolffe and Comet prepare a frontal assault.
As the Droids are about to power down for the night, AT-TE Walkers target the Droid outpost, and open fire, utilizing their long-range weapons as mobile artillery. Snow Droids collapse under the power of the cannons. Before the Droids can fully recover, Jedi and Clone forces stream upon them. Anakin leads Ahsoka and Clones from one side, while Fisto, Plo, Wolffe and Comet have a fierce fire-fight on the other side. Anakin force pushes several Battle Droids down, while Ahsoka slices up several Snow Droids. Rex and the 501st Clones charge the Battle and Snow Droids, blasting them with their weapons. However, the Republic suffer losses themselves, and their use of heavy weapons is damaged when the 501st Clone with a rotary cannon is crowded around, before shot to death amidst the chaos. Ahsoka and Anakin destroy the Snow Droids responsible. Rex calls out "Fire at will" and the remaining 501st Clones take his word, unleashing a barrage of blasters bolts upon the Droids. Once defeated, Anakin, Ahsoka and the rest continue into the outpost. Nearby, Fisto and Plo take Barc speeders, with Comet and Wolffe in the sidecars respectively, and use the speed and weapons of the speeders to their advantage, defeating the slower Stap vehicles. While the Cold Assault Troopers fight gun to gun with the Snow Droids, the battle getting dirtier and dirtier, with the Snow Droids going to all lengths to stop the Clones. Several Clones are sliced apart by the sharp blades from the Snow Droids arms. Wolffe is angered by this, and jumps down from the Barc speeder, shooting at Snow Droids attempting to slice Clones. The Clones gain help from this, managing to repel attacking Snow Droids. But, Wolffe fails to notice a Snow Droid coming up on him, and he is brutally knocked down to the ground, losing his helmet. The Snow Droid stabs down with it's blade towards Wolffe's one good eye, but before it can do the dirty attack, the Snow Droid has it's arms sliced off, before being force pushed away, and Plo Koon turns to Wolffe, "Didn't think you'd have all the fun, did you, Commander Wolffe?" and Wolffe replies "No, sir!". The battle is soon won over the Snow Droids.
Inside the outpost, Anakin and Ahsoka slice up a few Battle Droids in their way, before coming up to the room where they must place the bombs. R2-D2 opens the doors for them. Ahsoka says "Here we are! Let's get to work!". The Bomb Squad Clones bring in the bombs, and plant them along the room. Rex says, "Time we list, shiny's!". The Republic strike force leave the base, before the Bomb Squad Clones blow up the base. One outpost down, but the Republic forces know there is still a long way to go in this battle...
