1. Intro
Hello (YOUR NAME HERE) and welcome to my FAQ for Star Wars Battlefront II. I
made and FAQ for the first game and wanted to make a new one. I will not be
accepting contributions to my Battlefront I guide, I am finished with it.  Okay
Im probably boring you so.........lets get to the guide.
===============================================================================
2. Gameplay Basics
This game plays basically the same as the original. You have a set amount of
reinforcements; you capture command posts, kill the enemy, switch soldiers if
you die blah, blah, blah. Lets get to the new stuff. First, new classes! You
have a support class (some call it the commander class, but I don't think so.)
You also have the marine class. Now, the pilot and marine are only available in
space, on the ground you have engineers.
Space Battles! Awesome! Well, kinda. First, the good. Well, its fun. There is
nothing like bombing the crap out of an enemy cruiser. You can also invade
enemy ships and destroy them from the inside out. Now, for the bad stuff.
First, I don't think the ships handle very well. Also, if you really know what
your doing, they are over in like 5 minutes. But still a very good addition to
the game.
Next, new planets. Mustafar, Mygeeto, Felucia, Coruscant, etc., etc. They are
really cool and stuff. You also have new vehicles at your disposal. Some have
been redone and others have been replaced. Missions now have objectives to
complete. You can play as jedi and non-jedi heroes (for a limited amount of
time.) Some maps have been redone, but only a little.
And what to top it off with, than a story (gasp.) Seriously. You play as a
group of clones known as the 501st Legion. As the empire expands they become
Vader's Fist.

At the top center of the screen is the target indicator. It gives the name and
current health of any unit you target. Enemies are red, allies are blue, and
inanimate objects are white. The numbers below that are reinforcement
indicators. They tell how many reinforcements you or your enemy has left. To
the right of that is your radar. It tells what stuff is all around you. In the
center of the screen is your crosshair. It will turn color depending on what
you are looking at. The three triangles are the objective indicator. They
indicate where your current objective is (hence the name.)
At the bottom left-hand corner you have your stamina meter. Sprinting, jumping,
and rolling all deplete stamina, but it recharges over time. Above that is your
health meter. This is a no-brainer. Above your health is your primary weapons
status. It tells how much ammo you have left. And above that is your secondary
weapon status. Its just like the primary ammo, only secondary.

Actually, you get the 501st Legion. But its easier to type Republic.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5b. Republic Units
Clone Trooper
Class: Infantryman
Primary Weapons: Blaster Rifle, Blaster Pistol
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonators
Usefulness: 8/10
Clone Troopers are good for taking out infantry and weak armor. Most powerful
in groups.
Heavy Trooper
Class: Assault
Primary Weapons: Rocket Launcher, Blaster Pistol
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonators, Mines
Usefulness: 7/10
Heavy Troopers are best against armor. But HORRIBLE against infantry unless you
have the Precision Pistol. Mines are good for slowing enemy advances.
Clone Sharpshooter
Class: Sniper
Primary Weapons: Sniper Rifle, Blaster Pistol
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonators, Auto-Turret
Usefulness: 7/10
Dude, whats with the helmet? Best used against far-away infantry. Auto-Turrets
are good to make sure no one sneaks up on you.
Clone Engineer
Class: Engineer (hence the name)
Primary Weapons: Shotgun, Fusion Cutter
Secondary Weapons: Detpacks, Supply Dispenser
Usefulness: 8/10
Slicing is fun! Stand near an enemy vehicle and pull out the fusion cutter.
Then hold R1, it will say "Slicing #%" when it reaches 100% the vehicle is
disabled and the crew has to bail out.
Clone Commander
Class: Support
Primary Weapons: Chain Gun, Blaster Pistol
Secondary Weapons: Rally, Recon Droid
Usefulness: 8/10
Rally increases your allies' defense. The Chain Gun is useful for killing
heroes, but takes a while to warm up.
Jet Trooper
Class: Special
Primary Weapons: EMP Launcher, Commando Pistol
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonators
Usefulness: 5/10
The more you play as them, the better you will be with them. The EMP launcher
is powerful (but no shockwave effect like rockets.) Don't run around your
enemies, go over them!
Clone Pilot (Space Only)
Class: Pilot
Primary Weapons: Commando Pistol, Fusion Cutter
Secondary Weapons: Time Bombs
Usefulness: 8/10
Theyre actually pretty cool. The time bombs are powerful, and they recharge the
health of all ships they pilot.
Clone Marine
Class: Marine
Primary Weapons: Blaster Rifle, Rocket Launcher
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonators
Usefulness: 7/10
Good and Bad. Theyre more powerful than pilots, but cant heal their ships. They
look like clone troopers.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5c. Vehicles
BARC Speeder Bike
Class: Scout Vehicle
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Wimpy
Speed: Really Fast
Critical Area; the Pilot
Fast and weak. Nothing more, nothing less. Can also "jump" when moving.
TX-130S Fighter Tank
Class: Medium Assault Vehicle
Positions: 2: Pilot, Gunner
Firepower: Moderate
Speed: Weak
Critical Area: Circle Behind the Cockpit
All around good craft. Good against infantry and armor.
AT-RT (All-Terrain Recon Transport)
Class: Medium Assault Vehicle
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Moderate-Weak
Speed: Moderate-Fast
Critical Area: Cylinder Between the Legs OR the Pilot
A pretty good anti-infantry craft. Decent against armor.
AT-TE (All Terrain Tactical Enforcer)
Class: Heavy Assault Transport
Positions: 3: Pilot, Co-Pilot, Gunner
Firepower: Devastating
Speed: Really Slow
Critical Area: Boxy-Thing Under the Walker
This thing is something to be scared about. Infantry or armor, take cover!
Serves as a mobile command post.
Jedi Starfighter
Class: Interceptor
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Moderate
Speed: Really, really Fast
Fast vehicle. Theyre good for fighting around your cruiser, not the enemy's.
ARC-170 Starfighter
Class: Fighter
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Strong
Speed: Really Fast
Should have actually 3 positions: pilot, main gunner, and rear gunner. I use
these bad boys a lot.
V-Wing Starfighter
Class: Bomber
Firepower: Devastating
Speed: Fast
I use these guys to take out frigates and cruisers. Dog fighting with this ship
equals one unhappy player.
LAAT/I Gunship (aka Republic Gunship)
Class: Attack Transport Flyers
Positions: 5: Pilot, Co-Pilot, Left and Right Gunners
Firepower: Strong
Speed: Fast
Critical Area: The cockpit
Used for assaults on enemy cruisers. Not a very good ship, they move to slow.

The CIS (Confederacy of Independent Systems) are basically a huge droid army.
Theyre as good as the republic on land, but have more ships in space.
6a. CIS Heroes
Darth Maul

Secondary Weapons: Force Choke, Force Lightning
Found On: Death Star
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6b. CIS Units
Super Battle Droid
Class: Infantryman
Primary Weapons: Wrist Blaster, Tri-Shot
Secondary Weapons: Wrist Rocket
Usefulness: 8/10
Stronger than your average infantryman. They have more health than the clone
trooper, but fire slower.
Assault Droid
Class: Assault
Primary Weapons: Rocket Launcher, Blaster Pistol
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonators, Mines
Usefulness: 7/10
They kill vehicles and set traps. They run a little bit slower than the SBD
(super battle droid.)
Assassin Droid
Class: Sniper
Primary Weapons: Sniper Rifle, Blaster pistol
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonators, Auto-Turret
Usefulness: 7/10
Not much different from the sharpshooter. They (like all snipers) run the
fastest of all soldiers.
Engineer Droid
Class: Engineer
Primary Weapons: Shotgun, Blaster Pistol
Secondary Weapons: Detpacks, Supply Dispenser
Usefulness: 8/10
A very good unit. Good against infantry, a pain in the ass against vehicles.
They can also heal allies.
Droid Magnaguard
Class: Support
Primary Weapons: Bulldog RLR, Radiation Launcher
Secondary Weapons: Neuropoison, Recon Droid
Usefulness: 8/10
Neuropoison can lower enemy health. The Bulldog RLR is a powerful anti-infantry
weapon, and the radiation launcher rocks.
Droideka (Destroyer Droid)
Class: Special
Primary Weapons: Repeating Blasters
Secondary Weapons: Shield Emitter
Usefulness: 8/10
Toned down from the Battlefront I Droideka (good.) Still, a good alternative to
standard infantry. The shield will protect you for a decent amount of time to
rack up some kills.
Droid Pilot (Space Only)
Class: Pilot
Primary Weapons: Commando Pistol, Fusion Cutter
Secondary Weapons: Time Bomb
Usefulness: 8/10
Better than a marine when it comes to flying.
Droid Marine
Class: Marine
Primary Weapons: Blaster Rifle, Rocket Launcher
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonators
Usefulness: 7/10
Better than a pilot when it comes to sabotage. Looks like a standard battle
droid.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6c. CIS Vehicles
STAP (Single Trooper Aerial Platform)
Class: Scout Vehicle
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Weak
Speed: Fast
Critical Area: The Pilot
Slower than a speeder bike, but built for firepower.
Corporal Alliance Armored Tank Droid
Class: Medium Assault
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Moderate
Speed: Moderate
Critical Area: Rear Tread
They are hard to control at times, but can still cause serious damage.
Trade Federation AAT (Armored Assault Tank)
Class: Medium Assault
Positions: 2: Pilot, Gunner
Firepower: Moderate
Speed: Moderate
Critical Area: Rear Panel
Unlike the first battlefront, they now come with missiles.
Intergalactic Banking Clan Halfire Tank
Class: Medium Assault (another one!)
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Moderate
Speed: Fast
Critical Area: Gun below the Cockpit
Faster than the two tanks above. Only found on Geonosis.
Homing Spider Droid
Class: Heavy Assault
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: High
Speed: Slow
Critical Area: Where the Legs Meet the Head
Actually pilot less. Still pretty powerful. Is found on Kashyyyk in the Rise of
the Empire, but not Instant Action.
Tri-Fighter Droid
Class: Interceptor
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Moderate
Speed: Really, Really Fast
Fast, comes with homing missiles, you cant go wrong with that can you? Except
the lasers suck!
Droid Starfighter
Class: Fighter
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Strong
Speed: Really Fast
Actually, its supposed to be called the Vulture Droid. You cant do the walk
thing with it.
CIS Strike Bomber
Class: Bomber
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Devastating
Speed: Fast
It fires bombs faster than the V-Wing, a good fighter.
Droid Gunship
Class: Attack Transport Flyers
Positions: 6, I think: Pilot, Co-Pilot, Left and Right Turrets, Two Passengers
Firepower: Strong
Speed: Fast
I don't use these unless I keep dying inside the enemy cruiser (Just like most
transports). But freakin' awesome weapons for the pilot!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6d. CIS Weapons

Used By: Super Battle Droid
Ammo: 50/ 300

Tri-Shot
Used By: Super Battle Droid

7. Empire
This is the 501st during the reign of the empire. Here they are called Vader's

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7b. Imperial Units
Stormtrooper
Class: Infantryman
Primary Weapons: Blaster Rifle, Blaster Pistol
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonators
Usefulness: 8/10
My favorite of all imperial units. They are just like the clone troopers,
except theyre not (yes, that is a very stupid statement).
Shocktrooper
Class: Assault
Primary Weapons: Rocket Launcher, Blaster Pistol
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonators, Mines
Usefulness: 7/10
Use them to destroy vehicles before they get too close. Also to block off
certain pathways.
Scout Trooper
Class: Sniper
Primary Weapons: Sniper Rifle, Blaster Pistol
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonator, Auto-Turret
Usefulness: 7/10
The same sniper you played as in the last war, but with spiffier armor.
Imperial Engineer
Class: Engineer
Primary Weapons: Shotgun, Fusion Cutter
Secondary Weapons: Detpack, Supply Dispenser
Usefulness: 8/10
Think of them as less powerful infantry that can heal vehicles, and blow crap
up.
Imperial Officer
Class: Support
Primary Weapons: Sonic Blaster, Mortar Launcher
Secondary Weapons: Rage, Recon Droid
Usefulness: 7/10
Rage increases allies' attack. Imp Officers aren't that good. The Sonic Rifle
is really cheap and really weak.
Dark Trooper
Class: Special
Primary Weapons: Arc Caster, Commando Pistol
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonator
Usefulness: 7/10
A jump-pack and an arc caster that can hit multiple enemies is a good
combination. Excellent for taking out groups of rebel scum!
Imperial Pilot
Class: Pilot
Primary Weapons: Commando Pistol, Fusion Cutter
Secondary Weapons: Time Bomb
Usefulness: 8/10
Theyre pilots. Just like all the others. Except these wear black (which makes
them cooler.)
Imperial Marine
Class: Marine
Primary Weapons: Blaster Rifle, Rocket Launcher
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonators
Usefulness: 7/10
They look like shocktroopers. Again, they are only good for sabotage.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7c. Imperial Vehicles
74-Z Aratech Speeder Bike
Class: Scout Vehicle
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Wimpy
Speed: Really Fast
Critical Area: The Pilot
They look different than the BARC speeder bike, but they are a little bit
faster.
Saber Class Fighter Tank
Class: Medium Assault
Positions: 2: Pilot, Gunner
Firepower: Moderate
Speed: Moderate
Critical Area: Circle on the Back of the Cockpit
Now, we all know the republic has this tank, but this one has a differently
colored hull.
Imperial AT-ST (All Terrain-Scout Transport)
Class: Heavy Assault
Positions: 2: Pilot, Co-Pilot
Firepower: Strong
Speed: Moderate
Theyre pretty powerful. Also known as Chicken Walkers. They are slower now.
Imperial AT-AT (All Terrain-Armored Transport)
Class: Ground Transport
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Devastating
Speed: Really, Really Slow
Like I said in my Battlefront I FAQ, "These things are hell on four legs. But,
apparently, hell isn't very fast."
TIE Interceptor
Class: Interceptor
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Moderate
Speed: Really, Really Fast
Theyre fast and come with homing missiles, good craft.
TIE Fighter
Class: Fighter
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Strong
Speed: Really Fast
A pretty good craft for any job, but should NOT have missiles.
TIE Bomber
Class: Bomber
Positions: 2: Pilot, Co-Pilot
Firepower: Devastating
Speed: Fast
Good for bombing enemy frigates, then landing in the enemy hangar.
Imperial Lander
Class: Attack Transport Flyers
Positions:
Firepower: Strong
Speed: Fast
They should have used the Lambda Shuttle instead of using this piece of crap.

8. Rebels
The rebel alliance is nothing more than a rag-tag group of soldiers. They take
this whole war thing a little too far; they sometimes shoot imps AFTER they,
the imps, die (which makes me mad...)
8a. Rebel Heroes
Luke Skywalker
Status: Rebel Commander, Last of the Jedi Order
Primary Weapons: Lightsaber

8b. Rebel Units
Rebel Soldier
Class: Infantryman
Primary Weapons: Blaster Rifle, Blaster Pistol
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonator
Usefulness: 8/10
These guys are the backbone of the Alliance. They have the new, really annoying
voice.
Rebel Vanguard
Class: Assault
Primary Weapons: Rocket Launcher, Blaster Pistol
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonator, Mines
Usefulness: 7/10
Slower than the rebel soldier but packs a lot more whoop-ass. They have a new,
cooler, look.
Rebel Marksman
Class: Sniper
Primary Weapons: Sniper Rifle, Blaster Pistol
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonator, Auto-Turret
Usefulness: 7/10
I hope Pandemic knows that marksman is the lowest sniper rank. She can know
talk, unlike in the last battlefront.
Rebel Smuggler
Class: Engineer
Primary Weapons: Shotgun, Fusion Cutter
Secondary Weapons: Detpack, Supply Dispenser
Usefulness: 8/10
What does smuggling have to do with engineering? Moving on, theyre basically
your average engineer.
Bothan Spy
Class: Support
Primary Weapons: Incinerator, Stealth
Secondary Weapons: Regeneration, Time Bomb
Usefulness: 9/10
Regeneration increases health. Stealth is good for stealing command posts, but
don't walk in front of enemies, or they will find you.
Wookie Warrior
Class: Special
Primary Weapons: Bowcaster, Grenade Launcher
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonators, Supply Dispenser
Usefulness: 7/10
The Bowcaster is really hard to aim, but they do last a long time. They run
really slow, but they're freakin' Wookies!
Rebel Pilot
Class: Pilot
Primary Weapons: Commando Pistol, Fusion Cutter
Secondary Weapons: Time Bomb
Usefulness: 8/10
All around, the best units for space combat.
Rebel Marine
Class: Marine
Primary Weapons: Blaster Rifle, Rocket Launcher
Secondary Weapons: Thermal Detonator
Usefulness: 7/10
A little worse than the rebel pilot. Looks like the old vanguard.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7c. Rebel Vehicles
74-Z Aratech Speeder Bike
Class: Scout Vehicle
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Wimpy
Speed: Really Fast
Critical Area: The Pilot
The exact same as the empire's.
Alliance AAC-1 Fighter Tank
Class: Medium Assault
Positions: 2: Pilot, Gunner
Firepower: Moderate
Speed: Moderate
Made up by Pandemic, looks really cool, too.
T-47 Airspeeder (Snowspeeder)
Class: ...Medium Assault?
Positions: 2: Pilot, Gunner
Firepower: Moderate
Speed: Fast
Critical Area: Um...The cockpit I think.
The only thing that can take down AT-ATs (other than an anti-vehicle turret.)
A-Wing Starfighter
Class: Interceptor
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Moderate
Speed: Really, Really Fast
A new addition to Battlefront, fast and has homing missiles.
T-65 X-Wing Starfighter
Class: Fighter
Positions: 1: Pilot
Firepower: Strong
Speed: Really Fast
The best fighter in the Alliance fleet (I think).
Y-Wing Starfighter
Class: Bomber
Positions: 2: Pilot, Gunner
Firepower: Devastating
Speed: Fast
The workhorse of the Alliance fleet (I guess).
Alliance Assault Craft
Class: Attack Transport Flyer
Positions: 4: Pilot, Co-Pilot, Left and Right Gunners
Firepower: Strong
Speed: Fast
Critical Area: The Cockpit
This info sounds familiar, oh that's right, it's the same freakin' thing as the
republic gunship! C'mon, anyone could make something. Like... YT-1300? Eh,
better than nothing.

9. Rise of the Empire
The campaign is called the "Rise of the Empire." (I get it!) It begins at the
Clone Wars, moves to the expansion of the empire, and ends in the Galactic
Civil War.
I will call command posts CPs, followed by the designated number. For example,
command post six will be called CP6. It saves me time and sounds kinda cool
when you say it out loud.
Finally, this guide is intended for the Normal difficulty. So if you play on
Elite don't listen to a damn word I say.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9a. Attack of the Clones
Map Name: Geonosis: Dust Plains
Difficulty: 1/10
Command Posts: 1-7
Notes: This is a training mission, so don't worry about getting blasted to
bits. This teaches you how to be a one-man army.
Briefing: The Clone Army has landed on Geonosis. Get out there and win the
republic their first victory.
Objective 1: Proceed to Checkpoint Alpha
No big deal. Spawn as a clone trooper and head to the yellow marker. Objective
complete.
Objective 2: Neutralize the Droid Scouts
Find the three Super Battle Droids. Kill them. They shouldn't even hit you,
never mind kill you.
Objective 3: Finish Off the Damaged Hailfire Droid
Throw thermal detonators at it. Try to hit the cannon on the underside for
maximum damage.
Objective 4: Capture the downed Techno Union Ship
Head inside the downed Techno Union Ship and wait till the capture meter is
full. When its completely blue, its yours.
Objective 5: Repair the Damaged Medical and Ammo Droids
Oh no! The droid army is heading this way and your allies need bacta and ammo!
Seriously, face the command post and press triangle, then switch to the Clone
Engineer. Head out behind the Techno Union Ship (the direction the droids are
NOT coming from) and you'll see a destroyed health and ammo droid. Switch to
your fusion cutter and repair them. Kill any droids if they pose a threat.
Objective 6: Man the Nearby AT-TE Walker
Pretty easy, find the AT-TE (its behind you and to the left) and stand close to
it. Press triangle to get in.
Objective 7: Take Out One of the Two Spider Droids in the Area
Aim at one of the spider droids and use your primary and secondary weapons to
kill it. Kill the second one if you wish.
Objective 8: Retrieve the Holocron dropped on top of the Techno Union Ship
A Geonosian dropped a Holocron on top of the Downed Techno Union Ship. Get out
of the AT-TE and head to the Techno Union Ship. Change to the Jet Trooper (just
like how you changed to the engineer.) And Tap X twice to fly, then get on top
of the Ship. Pick up the Holocron and get it back to checkpoint alpha.
Objective 9: Capture the Cliff Command Post
Fly on top of CP5 and kill the droids there, then capture it.
Objective 10: Kill 3 Droids with a Sniper Rifle
Switch to a Clone Sharpshooter and shoot 3 droids. Droids only, Geonosians
don't count. Also, stay on the cliff.
Objective 11: Destroy One Spider Droid as a Heavy Trooper
This is why you should have stayed on the cliff. Switch to a Heavy Trooper and
Shoot at one of the Spider Droids. Use a Gonk (ammo) droid to get more ammo if
necessary. When its dead, you can switch to Mace Windu.
Objective 12: Switch to Mace Windu
Spawn at CP4 as Mace Windu. Need I say more?
Objective 13: Kill 10 Droids with a Lightsaber
Easy, run around and slash at droids with your saber. If you die, respawn at
CP4 and continue.
Objective 14: Capture the CIS Bunker
Run to CP3 and capture it. There are a few droids in the area, so be sure to
kill them first. Congratulations! You survived training!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9b. Amongst the Ruins
Map Name: Mygeeto: War-Torn City
Difficulty: 2/10
Command Posts: 1-5
Notes: This is your first introduction to the Episode 3 style clones. This is
your first real battle because you may actually die here.
Briefing: A major CIS energy farm is stationed on Mygeeto. You must destroy it
and steal a sample of Mygeetan crystal for Chancellor Palpatine's super laser.
Objective 1: Capture the Forward Command Post in the Central Building
Spawn at CP1 or CP2 as a clone trooper and head across the bridge. There are
holes in the bridge, so be careful. Head across the bridge, using the At-RTs if
you wish. Head inside the building and capture the command post.
Objective 2: Destroy the Turrets for General Mundi's Arrival
The Heavy Trooper works best here. Aim at a turret and shoot at it with you're
rocket launcher. Do the same with the other one.
Objective 3: Destroy the Energy Shield Power Generators
Play as Ki-Adi Mundi here, it makes things easier. Get around the shield and
hack and slash at the generator. When its destroyed, the objective is complete.
Objective 4: Capture the Northwestern Command Post
Head to CP5 and capture it. Your clones will help you here, but only a little.
Objective 5: Destroy the Shields Protecting the Energy Core
Destroy the shield in front of you; it makes the mission easier in case you
die. Sprint across the bridge, killing droids as you go. Destroy the droids in
front of the complex and then move around it. There are two generators, and
when theyre destroyed, head inside.
Objective 6: Destroy the Energy Core
Take out the droidekas inside and then slash at the generator. It goes down
pretty easy.
Objective 7: Acquire a Power Crystal from the Energy Core
Pick it up by walking over it. It appears right in front of the generator.
Objective 8: Bring the Crystal Back to the Dropship.
Head back to CP1 with the crystal. If you die, the crystal is dropped. Just
respawn at the closest CP and resume until the crystal is in the republics
hands.
VICTORY
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9c. A Desperate Rescue
Map Name: Coruscant: Space
Difficulty: 4/10
Command Posts: Attack Cruiser, Trade Federation Cruiser
Notes: This is your first space battle. It will seem easier if you watched
space overview.
Briefing: The CIS have captured Chancellor Palpatine and are attempting to
escape. Hold off the escape until the rest of the fleet arrives.
Objective 1: Launch Into Space
Spawn as a pilot. Grab an empty ARC-170 Fighter and take off.
Objective 2: Destroy 5 CIS Fighters
Lock onto an enemy fighter, wait until the reticule turns red, and then fire
your missiles. Shoot them with lasers when theyre close. Repeat four more
times.
Objective 3: Destroy the Enemy Frigate
The frigate is a Banking Clan Comms Ship, just to let you know. Use your
torpedoes, lasers are too weak. Stay under the ship, to avoid enemy fire.
Objective 4: Disable the Shields on the Trade Federation Cruiser.
Shoot at the Cruiser with your torps (torpedoes) until the meter is empty.
Battle's not over yet though.
Objective 5: Destroy the Communications Array on the Cruiser
Head in top of the cruiser and locate the array. It looks like a tower with a
satellite located somewhere mid-ship. Shoot at the base, to avoid missing.
Objective 6: Land inside the CIS Hangar
Land inside the CIS hangar and get out of your ship. Don't hit enemy ships.
Objective 7: Destroy the Engine Cooling Tanks
Go through the door on the right and sprint inside the room on the right. Shoot
the two enemy auto-turrets in this room before they kill you. Place a time bomb
on the green tanks, and then stand well back. Do this with your other bombs.
Three bombs will do the trick.
Objective 8: Destroy the Command Deck to Deliver the Killing Blow
You can destroy the Auto-Turret Defense Mainframe (the big pillar in the center
of the main control room) with two time bombs if you wish; this will make this
objective a lot easier. Either way, get back in your 170 fighter or steal a
Droid Starfighter and fly outside. Destroy the Command Deck to win the mission.
VICTORY
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9d. Heart of Darkness
Map Name: Felicia: Marshland
Difficulty: 5/10
Command Posts: 1-6
Notes: This mission is hard because you may die...A LOT. And all the brightness
makes it pretty hard to see.
Briefing: The Commerence Guild, a branch of the CIS is stationed on Felucia.
The 182nd was sent in a month ago, but we haven't heard from them since. Go to
the system and drive out the Seps.
Objective 1: Get to the Downed Walker
Spawn at CP1 as a Heavy trooper and head toward the Downed AT-TE. Along the way
you will hear screams over the commlink.
Objective 2: Kill Six Acklay
What the f**k! They aren't supposed to be here! Oh well...run backwards as you
shoot them if they run at you. Rockets will make short work of them. They come
in two waves of three, so you get a break between waves. Use the break to
refill ammo. When theyre all dead, prepare for the real onslaught.
Objective 3: Defend the Downed AT-TE
You have a new command post, the AT-TE. You have to defend it for 2 minutes,
not very long. The enemies come from the north and east, so get ready. Fight
off the enemy as best you can. If you die, respawn as a Clone Commander. The
chain gun is useful here.
Objective 4: Acquire a Power Cell
A gunship went down southeast of here. I suggest you play as Aayla Secura; her
force sprint is useful here. Grab the power cell and bring it back to the
walker.
Objective 5: Destroy the CIS Turrets in the Fungal Tree
Get in the AT-TE and head east to CP5. But, do not get in if you're still Aayla
Secura. It moves too slow and she will die before you get there. Watch out for
tanks here. Shoot the 4 turrets. Actually, when I played this mission, my AT-TE
was destroyed with one turret left. To make it worse, I was the only clone
left! I had to shoot the turret with a blaster rifle to win.
VICTORY
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9e. First Line of Defense
Map Name: Kashyyyk: Space
Difficulty: 5/10
Command Posts: Attack Cruiser, Trade Federation Cruiser
Notes: This is your second space battle; and you know what, it isn't all that
hard. Now you have new ships.
Briefing: The CIS have invaded Kashyyyk and have set up a blockade around the
planet. You must break through the blockade and get the fleet onto the planet
surface.
Objective 1: Destroy the Inbound Droid Frigates
Pretty easy, but the frigates have powerful lasers, so watch out. Spawn as a
pilot and grab a V-Wing bomber. Keep dropping bombs on them. If you stay on the
underside, you shouldn't take enemy fire. Keep in mind that they can move.
Objective 2: Destroy the CIS Heavy Turrets
They wont aim for you, so don't worry about getting shot at. Destroy them with
your bombs. A couple of bombing runs will take care of them.
Objective 3: Land an LAAT/I in the Enemy Hangar
Land back inside your own hangar. Grab a gunship and head into the enemy
hangar. It might be wise to switch to a marine as well.
Objective 4: Destroy the Life Support Systems and Engines
Easy, head inside either door to the machine room. Life Support Systems are on
the left, Engines are on the right. Take your pick, and if you die, spawn at
the gunship. Destroy any auto-turrets on either room. Three time bombs are
needed to destroy each system. Destroy the green tanks in the right door to
take out the engines. Destroy the big computer screen at the end of the room on
the right to take out life support systems.
Objective 5: Steal the Kashyyyk Holocron and Return it to the Republic
Go inside the final door to the Shield Generator room. Steal the Holocron and
go back to the hangar. Steal an enemy fighter and fly back to the Attack
Cruiser. Run into the command room and complete the objective.
VICTORY
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9f. A Line in the Sand
Map Name: Kashyyyk: Beachhead
Difficulty: 5/10
Command Posts: 1-4
Notes: Some people say this mission is hard, but I think its easy. It is
completely man to man, man to vehicle, or vehicle to vehicle combat.
Briefing: The CIS are staging an assault on one of the last free villages. You
must hold off the invasion until reinforcements arrive.
Objective 1: Hold the Beachhead for 3 Minutes
Spawn at CP3 as a trooper and head onto the beach. Grab a TX-130S tank and
fight off the enemy vehicles. Hold them off, then attack the enemy soldiers. If
you lose CP3, kill the opposition, hop out, and recapture it. When three
minutes is up, time to retreat.
Objective 2: Fall Back Behind the Sea Wall
Retreat! Actually, you probably could hold them off, but you want to win don't
you? Run behind the sea wall and hold your position at CP4.
Objective 3: Defend the Oil Refinery for 4 Minutes
This objective is pretty easy. The most useful units are the Heavy Trooper,
Clone Engineer, and Clone Commander. There is one gate winch that is useful,
without the gate open, enemy vehicles can't get in. If it is destroyed, repair
it as an engineer and the gate will close. Clone Commanders can take out many
units fast and defend the units around him with Rally. Heavy Troopers can place
mines at the gate and take out enemy tanks. When four minutes are up, time to
have some fun!
Objective 4: Force the Droid Army off Kashyyyk
Play as Yoda. Capture CP2 to make it easier. Then capture the Beachhead. Kill
all enemies to keep him alive. You shouldn't die, but if you do, respawn at CP2
or 3 as any unit you wish. Capture CP1 to complete the mission.
VICTORY
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9g. Underground Ambush
