C. Introduction
--------------------------
Welcome to my version of the Star Wars Battlefront FAQ/Walkthrough. This guide
will explain the basics of information that might not be covered in the your
Instruction Manual.
This guide covers the Windows PC Version of Star Wars Battlefront. However,
there is no distinct difference between the 2 other console versions.
If you ever want to send a comment or addition to be posted onto this
Walkthrough, be sure to leave a distinct e-mail with a subject line that will
let me know it is for this guide. I get alot of junk mail, and if I don't
know what it is, I won't open it.
Consult the Instruction Book for Instalation Information. But you hopefully
have that done already.
This is the final version of this guide. I will no longer be updating or
allowing this guide to be posted on any other website. Please do not ask.

Soldiers. You can view them in this menu.
--------------------------
D6. Command Posts
--------------------------
Capturing Command Posts (CP) is your primary objective in all modes of play.
The more CP's you own, the more chance you have of flanking (cornering) your
enemies. If you own over half of the Command Posts in a stage, your enemy
will begin to lose Reinforcements, the rate of loss is determined by how
many more CPs you own. There are several different CP's.
Green Command Post: A Command Post that belongs to your team. Protect it
with your life.
White Command Post: Contested (Vacant) Command Post that either team can
take.
Red Command Post: A Command Post that belongs to your enemies. The primary
objective is to take these CP's and make them Green.
Yellow Command Post: A Command Post that belongs to the native forces of
the stage. Attempt to take these Command Posts. Once all are owned, the
Native Forces cannot respawn.
Destroyable Command Post: These appear as Squares instead of Circles on
you map. These cannot be taken my enemy forces, but, if they take enough
damage, they will be destroyed, and cannot be used anymore. Endor, Hoth,
and Geonosis have these types of Command Posts.
Mobile Command Post: These are most assosicated with the Republic (AT-TE)
and Empire (AT-AT). They are meant to be marched into the middle of
battle to spawn troops to fight on the front lines. If you are on the
respective team, you can spawn at these Trasports. They are assosiated
with Geonosis, Hoth, and Rhen Var. They can be destroyed if taken enough
damage, but will respawn again shortly.
If any team owns all of the Command Posts on the map, the opposing team
will have 20 Seconds to contest a Command Post before victory or defeat is
declared.
When a CP is contested, the timmer will pause at the given time. If the
opposing team successfully steals the CP, the clock will disappear. If the
original owner retakes it, the clock will resume from the shown time.
--------------------------
D7. Gaming Screen

Instruction Book for more information.

Some weapons are Rechargeable and will overheat is fired too much.
Secondary Weapon Ammo: This will display the Ammo reamaining in your second
weapon. These are usually grenades.
Reinforcement Meter: This displays the remaining Reinforcements on both
sides of the teams. When either number reaches 0, the game will end, and
the team with Reinforcements left will win. Your team's general, the
announcer who says when a CP is taken or lost, will give a hint that you
are winning ("Victory is immanent") or losing ("Defeat...is immanent").
Kill Count: The top-most of the 3 side counters. This keeps track of your
kills. This will flash yellow when you kill an enemy Unit. It will
flash red if you kill a friendly Unit, and you will lose one count from
it.

counters.

III wasn't realeased when this was. All missions labeled Episode III are
what was believed to happen.
Episode I
Naboo: Fields
You play as CIS.
Your enemy is the Republic.
Gungans (Republic)
Your only enemies are the Gungans, but as the movies tell us, the Gungans
help the Republic. To bring down the forcefield, you must kill the
giant dinosaur things. But entering the field may cause an early death
by Jar Jars.
Naboo: Theed
You play as CIS.
Your enemy is the Republic.
Royal Guards (Republic)
Again, the Clones do not bother you this time, your only enemies are the
Guards. Take the Palace CP ASAP. It will be your key to victory, and

Between Episode I and Episode II
Kashyyyk: Islands
You play as CIS.
Your enemy is the Republic.
Wookiees (Republic)
Once again, no Clones, but you get to kill Wookiees. But, don't be sad,
you get Super Battle Droids now, HOORAY! In addition, Count Dooku will
assist you in battle.
Episode II
Geonosis: Spire
You play as Republic.
Your enemy is the CIS.
Geonosians (CIS)
The great battle of Geonosis. Now you ARE the Clones. And General Windu
will assist you in your trial here. Destroying Techno Union 1,
Techno Union 2, and Techno Union 3 will affect the CIS dearly. Once they
are destroyed, focus all attention to the Spire CP.
Between Episode II and Episode III
Kamino: Tipoca City
You play as Republic.
Your enemy is the CIS.
None
The appearance of the Jet Troopers. It's satisfying, well, not really.
They can travel great distances quickly. Do not let the Droids take the
Cloning Center, and take as many CP's as possible when the battle starts.
Episode III
Rhen Var: Harbor
You play as Republic.
Your enemy is the CIS.
None
This can be a very hard or very easy battle. Very hard if the CIS takes
the Ice Caves. Very easy if you keep the Ice Caves. You have an AT-TE
Command Post. Use it wisley
Kashyyyk: Docks
You play as Republic.
Your enemy is the CIS.
Wookiees (Republic)
Now the Natives work with you. The Wookiees are good allies. They will
repair turrets for your team. Keep ahold of the Piers and attempt to
take the Landing.

events that happened and what was believed to have happened.
Episode IV
Tatooine: Dune Sea
You play as Empire.
Your enemies are the Rebels.

and they will stop spawning. Take the Homestead, and for the sake of the
Empire, avoid the Sarlacc Pit.
Tatooine: Mos Eisley
You play as Empire.
Your enemies are the Rebels.
Jawas (Nuetral)
The Jawas-funny word, Jawa-will not side with either, but killing them
will take from you kill count. They build turrets, be happy. Taking
the Cantina CP will prove very useful. And if you want to, you can
dance to very addicting Cantina Music. Maybe Darth Vader will join you.
Or he'll tell you to help him kill Rebels. Also, enjoy your new Dark
Troopers.
Rhen Var: Citadel
You play as Empire.
Your enemies are the Rebels.
None
Take the Watch first, then the Keep. The Rebels will put up a good
fight for the Keep, so protect it with you gun. Stormtroopers are your
best choice here.
Yavin 4: Arena
You play as Empire.
Your enemies are the Rebels.
None
Take the Arena CP first. Then spend your remaining time killing any
Rebel who tries to kill you. No other suprises await you here.
Between Episode IV and Episode V
Yavin 4: Temple
You play as Rebels.
Your enemy is the Empire.
None
Tired of killing Rebels? Now you can kill Imperials! HOORAY! And you
can be a Wookiee! Better yet, you can start by taking the Forest Ruins
CP first! YAY! Get to work.
Episode V
Hoth: Echo Base
You play as Rebels.
Your enemy is the Empire.
None
The famed battle of Hoth. Now with more Luke Skywalker. Use the
Snowspeeders and Tow Cables to take down the AT-AT. If the Shield
Generator is smoking, respawn into a Pilot and use the Fusion Cutter to
repair it.
Bespin: Cloud City
You play as Rebels.
Your enemy is the Empire.
None
Han Solo is gone, no hope of seeing him here. But the Chamber might make
a good first CP. It is, after all, a Key Command Post. The Rear
Entrace serves as a good CP to keep.
Between Episode V and Episode VI
Bespin: Platforms
You play as Rebels.
Your enemy is the Empire.
None
Use your X-Wings to your advantage. If you're brave enough, steal a Tie
Fighter, you'll have to watch for X-Wing fire. Take the Extractor first,
then use it to take the Command CP.
Episode VI
Endor: Bunker
You play as Rebels.
Your enemy is the Empire.
Ewoks (Rebels)
First, use a Vanguard and a speeder to travel to the Shield Bunker. Use
all of your explosives in a Creative way, respawn, and repeat. On your
2nd trip, if a Imperial Pilot isn't there, the Bunker will fall. Then
use your Ewoks to take out the Empire once and for all.
--------------------------
E2. Galactic Conquest
--------------------------
You battle your enemies one planet at a time for total control of the
Galaxy. Use you Planetary Bonuses to aid you in Galactic Domination. Below

Mine Staratagy-Sent by josh_strat@yahoo.com:
As a Heavy Weapons Unit, place mines on MAVs or SVs and
just get in. If you go through a group of enemies,
the mines will detonate and kill the enemies nearby.
As a HUW place mines on open parts to enemy vehicles
(i.e. seats of speeders top turret of clone tank)
if done corectly when an enemy gets in they die and it
dameges the vehicle.(it might work on the republic
gunship too im not sure)
If you are about to lose a comand kill the special
droids
This next one can be done two different ways.
1. As a HWU place mines by the special robots
then when enemies come, BOOM!
2. As a HWU blow up the healing/ammo droids
then place mines near them. Because of the pilots A.I.
they come to repair them and die.

Naboo: Plains: At the command post in the center of the map, there are two
slanted stone pillars that pilots can build turrets on top of. The pillars
are on opposite ends of the command post.
Yavin IV: Temple: While playing as the rebels on this map, the Empire's
AT-ST's can be taken down rather quickly with the pole turrets. The turrets
work with ammo instead of rechargable energy. With five clips of 200 rounds
each, they work very well against the AT-ST's, although if they are firing
upon you while in the turret, you may want to get out because they have poor
durability against them.

Kashyyk: Docks: Using snipers at the South or North Village when playing as
Republic or Rebels can allow you to pick off over 80 enemies. Go out to
the end of one of the rope bridges where the droids can keep healing you and
giving you ammo. Dropping recon droids down onto the dock below for air
strikes can also increase the toll quickly.
Jedi Strategies-Sent by rojojoke@localnet.com
1.When a Jedi appears around a cliff area, take a thermal detonator and throw
it at his feet, he will then instantly fall off the cliff and die...hopefully.
2.Also when a Jedi appears go and get a speeder bike and run straight over the
Jedi, it will kill him instantly!!!
