Ryloth, the second planet in the Ryloth system, was a dry, rocky world of deserts, mountain ranges with mist-covered peaks, shadowy valleys, and had little or no surface water except for patches of water ice on the night side. It possessed a thin, but breathable atmosphere. The planet was orbited by five moons, which had subtle tidal effects on the planet's liquid core and underground springs.
Exiled Twi'leks flee a Heat storm in 3,986 BBY.Because of its permanent division into a day and night side, atmospheric conditions on Ryloth's surface were characterized by extremely high winds (reaching 500 kilometers per hour) scouring the surface and sculpting the landscape and unpredictable bursts of heat called heat storms, which could reach 300 degrees centigrade. The more extreme heat storms sometimes moved across the terminator and reached miles underground, making caves near the surface temporarily uninhabitable, before eventually dying out on the night side.
Along the terminator, between the day and night side, lay a thin habitable border, a twilight realm between the two extremes. Along this narrow strip were the series of caverns and underground cities of the Twi'leks, blockaded with thick blast doors and portcullises to keep out the vicious monsters that prowled the Bright Lands, especially lyleks.
The Floating Rock Gardens of Ryloth were a natural wonder and tourist attraction, well known throughout the Outer Rim, where strong winds blew among the tunnels, causing rocks to float gently through the air. Over the years the gardens became filled with rare and dazzling stones. Visitors were allowed to rearrange the stones to their liking, but were encouraged to seek meaning in the natural configurations.
Kala'uun was a permanent city located within the Lonely Five mountain range, boasting a large underground spaceport.

((by the way wookiepedia was nice enough to donate the information mentioned in the above post.))
Located 40 meters outside of Kala'uun was the Nilgaard Bioprocessig plant. A huge mega headquarters to run all the other companies with. At one time Locke only cared about minerals and the money it brought him. Security for the building consisted of 25 droidekas, about 70 members of the nilgaard security force, the Ysalamiri patrol( a group of 18 merc's hired by locke to do nothing gaurd the building from force users. each patrol is 2 people with one Ysalamiri.) Locke sits in his office atring down at all this smiling to himself proud of what he has built. He is eagerly awaiting Tyber Zann.Looking down at his chest as Locke unbutons his shirt and runs his fingers down the scar on his chest. Under neath the scar is the buildings true security. A detonator to the buildings ultimate sceurity. If anything happens to Locke that would cause him to stop breathing or his heart to stop beating. Security would kick in and in about 30 seconds the place explodes and anything around it for 20 meters. erasing the building exsistance. Locke just stands there thinking about his plan. How there is no escape from it. Locke remembers the plans for this building building his office in the middle of the building and with only one window looking down on the workers and such. He smiles and awaits Tyber Zann.

A ship comes out of hyperspace at the edge of the system, it's transponder is off keeping it's identity a secret. The ship is called the Merciless and is a new factory ship built for the Zann Consortium.
Without warning it starts to use it's tractor beams to latch on to the loose astroids at the edge of the system and directs them to the planets surface in an un-provoked planetary bombardment attack. With astroid sizes ranging from a speeder to an AT-AT they approach the atmosphere.
Merciless, Droid factory ship.
Length: 9,600 meters
Armament:
250 Heavy turbolaser batteries
250 Turbolaser batteries
250 Ion cannon turrets
250 Concussion missile tubes
40 Tractor beam emplacements
Starfighter Complement:
Dark trooper launch pods (100)

Locke sitting at his desk jumps up when a bolder smashes down onto his factory. He hurries to his security system and is picking up nothing besides what appears to be an astroid shower. Walking to the wall behind his desk he lifts a panel and types in some numbers. The wall slides open and Locke hops into the elevator. It takes roughly 150 feet below the planets surface. he has his own personal craft down there( will have to get that info to you don't have it on me right now.) there are about 5 squads of Lockes best men and of course his 4 wookie body gaurds. All though they are safe the planet continues to shake around them. One of the captains comes up to Locke," Sir it is too dangerous with this astroid shower to leave. What are your orders?" Locke looks around," We wait. We are safe for now. But how odd an astroid shower all of the sudden.

Sitting in the command chair of his new factory ship, Tyber looks on as the astroids hit the atmosphere and leave trails of smoke in their wake. Thr plan was to release 25 of the huge space rocks and drop them on the planet to soften up the defenses. Then drop his new droid troops on the planet, a way to test the capiblities of his new ship.
After the last astroid is deployed, he turns to the Captain and nods for the next phase of the plan to be put into action. "You may procede, Captian. Send in the phase one troopers first to cause chaos down there, then send in the rest."
The Captian turns to starfighter command and motions with his hand to release the drop pods that contain the dark troopers. Ten drop pods are deployed, containing one trooper each, to the surface in different locations to swarm the defenses. As they enter the atmosphere they appear as mere astroids adding to the confusion.

SSD Fallenstar and SD Bastogne comes out of Hyperspace. Xerxes' ships move slowly towards the planet. He orders them to raise shields and power up weapons. Xerxes stares out the view screen to sense what was out there. Their scanners are not picking up anything at the moment, but Xerxes does not like surprises...

Admiral Cron, looks over at Master Dooku
"Sir, our scanners are not picking up anything due to astroid or I think something is out there jammin us or this planet. I am not sure."
Xerxes places his hand on his chin and thinks on it.
"Ok, send one of the fighter wings out there to scan and search for any ships out there. Full stop. I want full alert for now, I dont like it but have the crew on standby their sections, fighter pilots in their ships ready."
Admiral Cron gives Xerxes a look, then hits the comlink.
"This is Admiral Cron, to both ships. Full alert and all fighters on standby at their ships until further notice."

Xerxes gets on the comlink
"Get me a secure line to my other ships."
Cron "Yes, Sir."
Cron starts and looks back at Xerxes
"Sir, go ahead. I have Death Trap, Hidden One, No Slack on the line."
Xerxes sits down "Commanders, I need for you to bring your ships here to my location with shields up and weapons ready. We are at Planet Ryloth."
They all answered. Now Xerxes just has to wait.

SD Grievous appears following Dooku's ships
'Master Dooku, this is Rajnish. Is there anything I can do to help?'
Rajnish senses something is going on but not sure has his ship raise their shields. He sits back down and waits.

Xerxes surprised to hear Rajnish and wonder who he knew where to find him.Oh well he thought, the more the merrier.
"Rajnish, glad tosee you are still alive. We are at a stand still, and something is jammin our scanners."
Xerxes sits down feeling a little good at the moment he now has 5 ships and one with back up if need be.
