The battle began with the arrival of Confederacy forces under General Grievous' command, which attacked the planet's small shipyard. Republic forces under General Waldan Bridger arrived to assist in repelling the invaders, only to discover that Togoria and its inhabitants had voluntarily defected to the CIS. Bridger's forces were slaughtered by the native Togorians while Bridger himself perished in a duel with Grievous that lasted less than twenty seconds.
