The
Jedi Knights have been thrust into the most difficult of roles. Throughout history, they have acted as keepers of the peace in the
Galactic Republic, not as frontline soldiers. Now, with the Clone Wars gripping the galaxy, the Jedi are the only ones qualified to lead the Republic's new
clone troopers in campaigns scattered across the galaxy. Their enemy: the
Confederacy of Independent Systems, and the endless
battle droids led by a deadly new menace,
General Grievous.
