[edit] The days before the battle
Four days before the battle there were reports of Sith Star Destroyers scouting the system near the planet. It was all unknown until the reports came in faster... and eventually all at once.
[edit] Invasion of Coruscant
The day came when hundreds of Sith capitol ships disengaged hyperspace into the Coru system. The Restoration Alliance responded to this instantly, sending one fourth of their available ships to cut off the Sith Invasion force at Ulabos before they entered Coruscant's orbit. But the plan failed when more Sith ships disengaged Hyperspace from right behind Coruscant itself, catching the Restoration Alliance forces off guard. The Ships sent to Ulabos turned around to return to Coruscant but were cut off and destroyed by Darth Echo's massive flagship, The Advent.
[edit] Chaos on the Ground
On the planet istself hundreds of Sith troopers poured out of landing carriers into the streets of the Galactic city. Small urban skirmishes popped up everywhere which lead to longer, more action packed battles in many places. Thousands of Restoration Alliance troops cut them off killing multiple enemies at a time, crushing them underneath massive walkers.
Buildings fell, shrapnel slammed into AT-AT walkers which caused them to lose balance and fall to the ground. The streets exploded as mines were set off causing dozens, if not hundreds, of troops on both sides to catch fire and die. Explosions caused tanks to become shrapnel-throwing death traps. Many aircraft and starfighters swerved in and out avoiding turbolasers large enough to disintegrate a building and all the poor souls inside it. Massive, burning capitol ships from the battle in space crashed into the office buildings, homes, stores, and museums that lined the skies of Coruscant.
