The first battle that you and your men fought in was on a Mid-Rim planet called Alun. It was relatively isolated despite being a part of the Republic, however, it was home to several rare metals that the Separatists would no doubt like to use on their droids. Hence an attempted invasion of their capital city that would then spread out to the rest of the planet once the royal family surrendered.

"I want two platoons to move to the left and right side of the city in case the droids try to circle around. A third platoon needs to move into the town to ensure that the civilians have moved out of open areas!"

"Yes, Ser!" Drifter kept shooting droids with one hand and lifted his comm with the other, barking out orders.

Sinking just a bit deeper into the Force, you allowed it to keep you more alert of the blaster bolts coming your way. Despite the clone's best efforts to keep you behind them, you stubbornly remained the farthest out front in order to block as many blaster shots from hitting them as possible.

Your shields were almost entirely up in order to avoid getting distracted by any lights in the Force flickering out around you. You could mourn them later, but focusing on that during a battle would only get more of your men killed.

"Their general is hiding behind most of their lines, I'm going to make my way through to get to him." This battle had gone on for too long, especially considering how small the number of droids present actually was. This general obviously wasn't expecting a GAR presence on this planet and was floundering because of it.

"Wait, General-"

Rushing forward, you sunk even deeper into the Force and allowed it to guide your movements as you cut through the droids around you. They fell to your blade one by one until there was a clear path to the Separatist General.
