Following a campaign against the Tusken Raiders that was initiated by Saponza's Gang, a cell of the Alliance to Restore the Republic, the Tusken Raider leader known as the Jundland General retaliated with a campaign directed at both rebel soldiers and civilians.
Tatooine experienced a surge in aggressive actions from Tusken Raiders, who began targeting moisture farms along with the Rebel Alliance's base. In response, rebel forces undertook a campaign against the Tusken Raiders, which temporarily halted the Tusken attacks.
Shortly after the Alliance's military action against the Tusken Raiders, the rebel base found itself under assault by a substantial Tusken force. After successfully defending against the attack, rebel agent Saponza observed a heightened level of tactical sophistication among the Tuskens, prompting him to question their underlying objectives. This increased aggression compelled the rebels to fortify and enhance their military capabilities. When scouts located a Tusken settlement and the rebels launched an offensive, Saponza quickly realized that the settlement's design was markedly different from typical Tusken camps, commenting on the unusual tactical awareness displayed by the "Sand People". Colonel Jennica Pierce provided reinforcements to the rebels in the form of Wookiee warriors for their assault, and during the conflict, Saponza deployed the Strix to engage ground-based targets.
Upon the rebels' immediate return to their base, they were met with an immediate assault by a large contingent of Tusken Raiders. The Tuskens had managed to evade detection and approach closely enough to launch a surprise attack. Saponza instructed his troops to man their autoturrets and fend off the attackers. Following the intense engagement, Saponza conferred with his partner, expressing his surprise at the Sand People's unusual intelligence. Concerned, Saponza ventured to the cantina in Mos Espa in search of information regarding Tusken activities, while Saponza's partner continued to expand and improve their headquarters. Saponza returned with news that the rebel forces were confronting a Tusken Raider known as the "Jundland General", who was operating out of a village located in the Jundland Wastes.
Before Saponza could finish speaking, however, the rebel base was once again targeted by a significant Tusken Raider force. Rebel forces were victorious and survived the attack. As they prepared their forces to confront the "Jundland General", Saponza advised his partner that they should prioritize upgrading their base to discourage future assaults. Following the rebels' attack on a fortified enclave, Saponza noted the absence of women and children, emphasizing that the rebels had walked into a death trap and that the "Jundland General" needed to be defeated promptly.
Colonel Pierce informed Saponza and his unit that they needed to further expand and upgrade their forces to counter not only smugglers, cartels, or syndicates, but the Galactic Empire as well, stating that anti-Imperial operations would begin soon. Once the "Jundland General"'s operational base was located, Saponza's rebels initiated an assault on the stronghold. Pierce commented that the final defeat of the "Jundland General" would save countless innocent lives. The rebels ultimately emerged triumphant, with Saponza remarking that the battle was reminiscent of the Clone Wars.
