"I want this planet in my pocket!"
―Tyber Zann[1]

An attack on Saleucami was launched by the Zann Consortium to claim a listening outpost belonging to the Hutt Cartel.

Prelude

"I want control of that comm outpost so we can do a little eavesdropping of our own. Saleucami needs to be softened up in preparation for our landing."
―Tyber Zann[1]

The battle was planned after the Cartel launched attacks on the Zann Consortium and destroyed one of the Consortium's barrack complexes. After corrupting the planet, Tyber Zann sent a Defiler to sabotage the shield generator. Afterwards, he sent Urai Fen to capture the planet.

The battle

"There he is, just like Jabba warned, an infiltrator!"
"Whether Jabba warned you or not is of no consequence. Stand down or be eliminated."
"Double pay for the one who takes his head!"
―Hutt mercenaries and Urai Fen[1]

Urai Fen was sent down along with several Grenadiers and Mercenary Assault Squads. Some of his troops were left behind to guard the landing zone for reinforcements. After destroying the Hutt Command Center, the Hutt Cartel struck back, killing the Mercenaries at the landing zone using mines. Urai expected this and made his way past the Hutt Cartel forces to capture the landing zone, killing several Hutt mercenaries to secure it. After doing so, the rest of the Zann Consortium forces dropped down and crushed the rest of the Hutt Cartel on Saleucami.

Aftermath

"It seems Jabba has been digging up the past. According to data we recovered on Saleucami, Jabba's stumbled across an old battle droid factory on Hypori that somehow survived the Clone Wars."
―Urai Fen[1]

After capturing Saleucami, Tyber discovered that Jabba Desilijic Tiure had discovered a droid factory on Hypori that had somehow survived the Clone Wars. Zann decided to capture that droid factory next.
