star wars battlefront 2 rise of the empire

The rebel side consists of super battle droids, an engineer, and battle droids armed with that repeating sniper rifle. This presents a problem which I'll get into in a second. They're basically just empty patches of sand without any cover to use or make it interesting. And the fact that there are only four CP's (two of which cannot be captured, I think) turns the map into a frustrating 'CP goose-chase.' And to top it off none of the command posts, other than the tusken camp or the little rebel mobile command center, are very exciting to look at.

The actual layout of the map is rather unimaginative and boring since the command posts are perfectly aligned with one another rather than spread out. The Empire starts out south of the camp with two UT-AT's.

The rebels start off with two CP's: one to the west of the camp and one to the north. The map is littered with Republic vehicles mostly partially functioning AT-TE's. The only thing that could have made it perfect would be those dog-like monsters the tuskens kept as pets. It was like being in the scene from Episode II where Anakin sneaks into the tusken camp to rescue his mother.

The Empire catches wind of the rebel's plans (they must have been bored) and sends a large group of Clone Commando's to ambush the rebels, thus paralleling the ambush that occured several years before. It just so happens that a clan of tuskens has set up camp in the middle of the wreckage, hence complicating things further. The rebels (who mostly consist of droids now) are scavenging the site of a brutal ambush that occured during the Clone Wars for old machinery and weapons that they can use to further their cause. The map takes place on Tatooine under a starry night sky.

Yeah, it's sad, but perhaps what's most sad is that his final map is also one of his weakest. Not only is this the long-awaited fifth installment of the Rise of the Empire series, but it is also PR-0927's (Majin Revan) final map for Star Wars Battlefront II.
