The Battle of Vanquo took place in 3964 BBY, when the Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders attacked the Outer Rim mining world of Vanquo at the beginning of their war with the Galactic Republic. A resource world near the Mandalorians' true target—the ecumenopolis of Taris—Vanquo was part of a Republic security cordon known as the Jebble-Vanquo-Tarnith line designed to protect Taris from Mandalorian aggression. That did not deter the Mandalorians from attacking Vanquo as part of a three-pronged offensive aimed at Taris, with Neo-Crusader leader Mandalore the Ultimate designing the Vanquo battle to lure away the Republic Navy's left flank and open up a corridor to Taris. Squads of Mandalorian Shocktroopers easily secured the mining camps on Vanquo's nightside, while the Mandalorian and Republic fleets

| - The Battle of Vanquo took place in 3964 BBY, when the Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders attacked the Outer Rim mining world of Vanquo at the beginning of their war with the Galactic Republic. A resource world near the Mandalorians' true target—the ecumenopolis of Taris—Vanquo was part of a Republic security cordon known as the Jebble-Vanquo-Tarnith line designed to protect Taris from Mandalorian aggression. That did not deter the Mandalorians from attacking Vanquo as part of a three-pronged offensive aimed at Taris, with Neo-Crusader leader Mandalore the Ultimate designing the Vanquo battle to lure away the Republic Navy's left flank and open up a corridor to Taris. Squads of Mandalorian Shocktroopers easily secured the mining camps on Vanquo's nightside, while the Mandalorian and Republic fleets engaged in a heated space battle above the planet. Eventually, Republic Captain Saul Karath was forced to retreat, and the Mandalorians conquered the planet. The Mandalorian victory at Vanquo gave the Neo-Crusaders an Outer Rim stronghold they never relinquished and also set the stage for their conquest of Taris not long afterward.
