The Sixth Battle of Yavin IV was a battle of the War of the Resurrected Emperor. Emperor Palpatine, newly resurrected, decided to try out his new bombship on the most likely target, the Jedi Temple on Yavin IV. He attacked the Temple, which was held by 3,000 Republic foot soldiers, Rogue Squadron, and 22 Jedi Knights, led by Luke Skywalker. 300 of the 700 stormtroopers from the attacking force breached the Temple, led by five Dark Jedi. All of them were killed, although 113 of them did reach the command room, which was held only by five Jedi Knights (including Luke Skywalker) and Wedge Antilles.
