Tau'ri-Ori skirmishes

This is a list of skirmishes that have occurred in the Milky Way galaxy between the Tau'ri and Ori during the Ori crusade.

Skirmish of Chulak
The Skirmish of Chulak was a conflict during the Ori crusade fought between the servants of the Ori, Free Jaffa Nation, and the Tau'ri over and on the Jaffa world of Chulak.

With the successful completion of the Supergate in the Milky Way galaxy and the victory at the Battle of P3Y-229, the new Ori fleet consisting of four Ori motherships set course for the Free Jaffa world of Chulak. Once they emerged from hyperspace, the ships immediately destroyed the several Ha'taks in orbit of the planet. One ship then descended into the atmosphere and launched several small fighters.

Back in orbit, one Ha'tak emerged from hyperspace with Bra'tac and most of SG-1. As a last ditch effort to destroy one of the Ori motherships, Bra'tac collided his Ha'tak into it, but not before he and the rest of SG-1 were beamed aboard the newly arrived Odyssey. However, the Ori ship's shields held, and The Odyssey escaped into hyperspace. Also, Daniel and Vala who were aboard the Ori ship that landed on the planet, were rescued by the Odyssey seconds before they could be killed by a Prior.

Skirmish of the Ori mothership
The Skirmish of the Ori mothership was a confrontation between the Tau'ri, Jaffa and Adria - the Orici - on an Ori mothership.

After another planet has fallen into the hand of the Ori, the Jaffa leader Se'tak uses the Dakara Superweapon to annihilate the surrounding Ori forces, notably an Ori mothership. Unfortunately, all life on the planet was killed in the process.

SG-1, who were on the planet earlier, discovered the mothership and decided they could not pass the opportunity to examine an unmanned and completely accessible Ori ship. Unfortunately, they were not the only ones with the idea to explore the vessel, a group of Jaffa led by a man named Bo'rel was also aboard. Bo'rel, who wanted the ship under Jaffa control, captured Teal'c and Mitchell.

Afterwards, three Ha'taks droped out of hyperspace in orbit and Odyssey, which they brought earlier, left to prevent a possible confrontation. Bor’el, having heard Mitchell talking to Carter over their radios, called to the rest of SG-1 to surrender or he would harm Teal’c and Mitchell. Daniel suggested that the Tau'ri and Jaffa work together. However Bor’el refused, and while Daniel continued to try and reason with Bo'rel, he and Vala were at that moment captured by a Jaffa patrol.

Adria, who had apparently survived the attack, appeared and captured Daniel and Vala by killing the Jaffa with her powers. Daniel tried to stun her with a zat, but she began to telekinetically choke Daniel demanding that they told her what happened. Despite her best efforts, she could not force the information from Daniel's mind. Daniel and Vala tried to reason with Adria.

With help from Carter, who had returned from the bridge, Mitchell and Teal'c escaped from the Jaffa and decided to head for the Stargate. Adria brought a Jaffa back to life and forced the soldier to reveal the location of the superweapon. She then activated and operated the Ori Battlecruiser and set course for Dakara.

Carter, Mitchell and Teal’c go to the bridge and try to override the primary systems. They encounter Bo'rel and convinces him that they have to fight a common enemy. The ship arrived at Dakara and Mitchell decided to destroy the powercore using C4. Unfortunately Adria had prevented the C4 from detonating. The Jaffa attack the room she was holding Daniel and Vala prisoner in, but she sealed the door. The Odyssey arrived, but was unable to extract SG-1, Carter succeeded in deactivate the shielding and SG-1 were beamed off. The Odyssey jumped to hyperspace to avoid the wavefront of the superweapon which the Jaffa had deployed in a last ditch effort against the battlecruiser.

The desperate defense strategy succeeded, only in killing the Jaffa aboard the ship, since Adria is immune to the superweapon. Eager to destroy the only real threat to the Ori, Adria fired the battlecruiser's beam weapon directly at the superweapon. The Superweapon was completely destroyed. Back at the SGC, SG-1 received word that not only had Dakara been devastated, but five more planets had fallen to the Ori. With the Dakara superweapon destroyed, three Jaffa Ha'taks destroyed and the Ori continuing to convert countless planets, Merlin's anti-Ori weapon is now needed more than ever.

Skirmish of the Sangraal
The Skirmish of the Sangraal was a skirmish spanning several planets in the Milky Way galaxy between the Tau'ri and Ori, which occurred in 2007

After making it through several obstacles in order to obtain the Sangraal on a medieval-style planet, SG-1 (including Ba'al) was transported to a planet in Morgan's planetary circuit. There they met Merlin, who later had his conscious placed inside Daniel Jackson's mind along with his ascended powers, and started to build the Sangraal. However, Adria, along with a small army of Ori soldiers, were hot on their tail.

They continued to work on the device, being transported to several planets in the planetary circuit along the way. However Adria, having powers capable of finding the planet SG-1 were on, soon caught up to them. As she and her army emerged trough the Stargate, SG-1 did the best they could to hold them off. Meanwhile, Adria had transported directly in the chamber where Daniel Jackson was building the Sangraal. At that time, Daniel used Merlin's ascended powers to draw forth lighting from the sky and strike all of the Ori solders dead. He then turned to Adria. While their powers were evenly matched, Daniel was in bad shape and couldn't hold Adria off for long. He held her off as long as he could, providing SG-1 escaped through the Staragte.

Skirmish of P9C-882
The Skirmish of P9C-882 was a brief fire fight between the Ori, and the Tau'ri in conjunction with those native to the planet P9C-882 in 2007.

In a debriefing, SG-1 learned that the planet P9C-882 had recently been visited by a Prior and that he would soon return. General Landry informed the team, Carter in particular, that Arthur's Mantle could be used to hide the entire village. However, when the Ori came upon the village, the device ultimately failed.

Armed with P-90s, the villagers, as well as most of SG-1, defended the village from the Ori warriors. However, ultimately it was a loosing battle. As ammo ran low, and several had already died, the skirmish quickly came to an end, and the Ori emerged victorious. It wasn't until later that Carter managed to get the device working again, protecting the village from destruction via an Ori energy beam weapon from an Ori mothership after the Ori forces had left the planet.

Sending the Sangraal to the Alteran home galaxy
Sending the Sangraal to the Alteran home galaxy was an action between the Tau'ri and Ori that occurred in 2007.

SG-1 discovered a village recently visited by an Ori Prior who, oddly, made no threats and spoke only of Origin's merits. Intrigued, they traveled to the planet and discovered the prior was actually Daniel Jackson. After SG-1 reported back to General Landry, they came up with a plan to transport him aboard the Odyssey. Still having Merlin's consciousness in his head, he told them of a plan to send the, nearly completed, Sangraal to the Ori home galaxy and destroy them once and for all. But to do it, they needed to shut down the Supergate, potentially allowing more Ori ships to come through.

Meanwhile, SG-1, minus Daniel and O'Neill, ring aboard an Ori mothership. After encountering some resistance, they found the unfinished Sangraal. The Ori ship enters hyperspace and Carter seals off the level preventing more guards from appearing. Vala started to finish the Sangraal and, upon its completion she is surprised to see no ancient being appear to take the device from them.

After exiting hyperspace, SG-1 found an Ori ship blocking their path to the supergate. Ori guards then appeared behind Vala and Mitchell with weapons drawn. Adria was on the ship, as well as several Ori soldiers.

Meanwhile on the Odyssey, after several interrogations, Daniel broke free of his restraints and took control of the ship, transporting everyone off the ship, and up Col. O'Neill, and then entered hyperspace. As they emerged at the supergate, they severed the connection already in place and dialed the Alteran home galaxy. SG-1 was then transported from the Ori ship, where the Sangaal was, to the Odyssey, but not before engaging its engines having it fly straight through the gate. The device activated and the ascended Ori were destroyed. However, when the gate shut down, four more Ori motherships emerged, carrying thousands more soldiers, and entered hyperspace.

Capture of Adria
The Capture of Adria was an incident between Adria, the Tau'ri, and Ba'al in 2007.

After a very complicated plan, including implanting of false memories, SG-1 captured Adria in her search of Clava Thessara Infinatus. SG-1 ambushes them with anti-Prior devices to stop Adria from using her powers. However, Ba'al's Jaffa beam in and kidnap Adria.

Ba'al later killed most of his clones and their Jaffa to make sure his plan was not ruined by them and their egos. He then implanted Adria with a clone while in the meantime SG-1 beamed aboard to retrieve Adria, but, unknown to them, it was actually Ba'al in control. They were successful in reaching Adria/Ba'al by killing several Jaffa and a Ba'al clone. But they soon realized it was not Adria but Ba'al. They devised a plan to swap Ba'al out for a Tok'ra but this plan failed when Ba'al released a toxin into her system in attempt to kill her so that the Tok'ra could not retrieve the knowledge she possessed.

Ba'al was extracted but not soon enough for Adria to use her Ori telekinetic powers to hold the lock herself in. She begins preparations for ascension, while Mitchell and Teal'c attempt to cut their way in, but are distracted when Adria releases coolant into the corridor where Daniel is trapped. Vala attempts to kill Adria with one of the guard's guns, but is lifted into the air by Adria's telekinetic powers, allowing her to complete the ascension process uninterrupted.

Skirmish on the ruins of Dakara
The skirmish on the ruins of Dakara was the final skirmish between the Tau'ri and the Ori that took place in the Milky Way, before their demise.

On the ruins Dakara, SG-1 was searching for the Ark of Truth. When they found a box (which wasn't the ark), a group of Ori soldiers, commanded by Tomin attacked. Mitchell and Carter opened fire at them, but were outnumbered and surrounded. However, they did activate a Prior disruptor, which neutralized one of the Priors' powers. Although surrounded, Mitchell was able to use an Ori staff weapon to kill the Prior, before he was able to kill them with a staff weapon. To that end, the army easily surrendered.
