The Roche Asteroid Field was an asteroid field[5] in the Shantipole system, a star system in the Roche sector in the galaxy's Mid Rim, in grid square Q-8 on the Standard Galactic Grid,[2] situated between Lantillies and Abhean on the Perlemian Trade Route.[1] Quarrie worked there to refine the design of Prototype B6 for operational use.[5] The Verpine shatter rifle was rare outside of here,[6] and it was the base of the Verpine Roche Hive, a droid manufacturer.[7] It shared its name with the Roche Foundation Prize award.[8] During the Clone Wars, a sneak attack on Roche occurred, a battle which the Dressellian smuggler Has Obitt was caught in the middle of.[4]
