The player search and gather resources such as Food, Carbon, Nova Crystals, and Ore and then using the resources in order to create new buildings, units, workers and so on. Food is used for low - end units and troopers, as well as the work force. Carbon is used in place of Wood in Age of Empires 2 for buildings and artillery. Nova Crystals create the more high - end units and can be gathered through getting special `` holocrons '' ( from Relics in AoE 2 ). Ore is used for defensive structures as well as the Gungan unique unit Fambaa. The player can build separate units at separate buildings designed specifically for different types of units. The player can advance through the four Tech Levels by paying a certain amount of resources. When a player advances a Tech Level, more units, buildings, and upgrades become available. There are a total of seven military structures in the game. These are the Troop Center, the Shipyard, the Mech factory, the Jedi Temple or Sith Temple depending on the faction, the Heavy Weapons Factory, the Airbase, and the Fortress. The Troop center produces ' cannon fodder ' early game units. These are the Grenadier, the Anti-Air trooper, the Mounted Trooper, and the ubiquitous Trooper. The Shipyard produces ships, these being the Frigate, the Destroyer, the Cruiser, and the Anti-Air Frigate. The Mech Factory produces Scouts, Assault Mechs, Strike Mechs, and Mech Destroyers. The Jedi Temple or Sith Temple is a depository for Holocrons and produces Jedi Padawans / Sith Apprentice and Jedi Knights / Sith Knights as well as Jedi Masters / Sith Masters. The Airbase produces aircraft such as fighters, bombers and transports, and the Heavy Weapons Factory produces pummels, artillery, anti-air mobiles, basically the big guns needed to mount a full - scale assault. The Fortress serves as a defensive structure and produces the civilization 's unique unit and an anti-jedi Bounty Hunter, as well as long - range cannons, and the massive Air cruiser. It fires high - damage, area - of - effect shells at air, sea or ground targets over long reload times while being durable and having passive shielding. It is the most directly powerful unit in the game ( not including cheats. ) If Victory is set to standard, the player can win in three different ways. The player may win by destroying all of the enemies buildings and units with their army. Also, the player can use a Jedi / Sith to bring all of the Holocrons to the Jedi / Sith Temple and preserve them for 200 `` days ''. The final way to win is to build a monument that is only available at Tech Level 4. If the monument stays standing for 300 days, then the player wins. Campaigns Tutorial - The campaign sees the player assume the role of Chewbacca 's father, Attichitchuk. In this campaign, the player gradually learns the game 's play mechanics as Attichitchuk marshals a Wookiee army to force the Trade Federation off Alaris Prime. Trade Federation - The campaign has the player assume the role of OOM - 9, a droid ground commander leading the Trade Federation 's actions during the blockade of Naboo in Star Wars : Episode I -- The Phantom Menace which includes a conquest of Theed city, the capital of Naboo. The campaign also features the movie 's ground battle between the Trade Federation and the Gungans but as an alternate history simulation wherein Darth Maul has killed Qui - Gon Jinn and Obi - Wan Kenobi while Federation droid ships destroy the Naboo starfighters. Gungans - The Gungan campaign begins millennia in the past as a sub-faction of Gungans under the command of Boss Gallo try to unite the other warring tribes under a single banner, then continues as the Gungans fight back against the Trade Federation invasion. It also features a bonus mission featuring The Phantom Menace 's climactic ground battle, and the Naboo 's assault against Trade Federation forces in Theed. Galactic Empire - The Imperial campaign begins just after the events of A New Hope, as Darth Vader personally leads the assault on the Rebels ' Massassi Ruins base and captures General Jan Dodonna. The rest of the campaign focuses on suppressing other Rebel bases, including a mission to protect an AT - AT prototype, with a cameo by The Empire Strikes Back character General Veers ( a colonel in the mission ). The campaign 's last mission is the Imperial attack on Hoth, where the player has a chance to destroy Echo Base and prevent Han Solo and company 's escape. The bonus missions depict the Empire 's hostile takeover of Bespin and an alternate retelling of the Battle of Endor where the Empire routs the Ewoks. Rebel Alliance - The Rebel campaign is mostly set between the events of A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back. It features the Rebels ' efforts to recover a Jedi artifact, the Vor'Na'Tu, while fending off Imperial forces. The bonus missions include the Battle of Hoth, the ground phase of the Battle of Endor, and a mission to attack an Imperial asteroid base. Wookiee - The mission features Chewbacca 's efforts to liberate Kashyyyk from Trandoshan slavers and the Empire. Its bonus mission is the liberation of Kessel. Star Wars : Galactic Battlegrounds : Clone Campaigns Clone Campaigns cover art Star Wars : Galactic Battlegrounds Clone Campaigns is an expansion pack that was released two days before the 2002 Cannes Film Festival and theatrical release of Star Wars : Episode II -- Attack of the Clones on May 14, 2002. It introduced two playable factions and campaigns : that of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the Galactic Republic. Clone Campaigns added more units, such as the Decimator and the Air Cruiser, support for movable power supplies, and more. Clone Campaigns occurs during the first months of the Clone Wars. Confederacy campaign In the Confederacy campaign, the hero is Chiss warrior Sev'rance Tann, and guided by Count Dooku. The player 's goal is to capture the energy - mining platforms of the Galactic Republic so that they can effectively hold Coruscant hostage, and take control of the Decimators, a secret weapon developed by the Republic. The campaign begins with the Battle of Geonosis as Tann 's forces clear an escape route for Count Dooku. After rebuilding the Separatist army, Count Dooku directs her to Tatooine, where she finds Boorka the Hutt. In exchange for destroying a Republic outpost, she is given information regarding the location of a Decimator testing base on Eredenn Prime. General Tann manages to capture the base and the Decimators, but their Wookiee manufacturers include a fail - safe locking code and prevent the CIS from using them. However, Tann manages to also capture a Data Droid, which she takes with her to the Wookiee colony on Alaris Prime. Alaris Prime soon serves as one of many probing attacks by the CIS on Wookiee territory before the Battle of Kashyyyk. After destroying the Wookiee Decimator facilities, Tann makes the droid unlock the Decimators. At this point the objective is revealed : Sarapin, a world providing much of the Republic 's power. The Decimators ' firepower enables Tann to crush the Republic defenses and kill the base 's commander, Jedi Knight Jor Drakas. Republic campaign The Galactic Republic campaign begins at the Battle of Geonosis. Jedi Master Echuu Shen - Jon leads a force of clone troopers and Jedi including his young Padawan, Stam Reath, in destroying Trade Federation core ships. The mission is successful, but Reath is brutally killed by Sev'rance Tann, sinking Echuu into depression. The campaign follows the climax of the CIS campaign. The Jedi Council sends Shen - Jon to the planet along with his new padawan, Stam Reath 's sister Naat, to reactivate Sarapin 's energy platforms. The wreckage of a Decimator found on the planet reveals the usage of stolen Republic technology. The Republic forces successfully take back Sarapin and Shen - Jon interrogates CIS officer Zian Finnis, who gives away the Confederacy 's presence on Tatooine. Shen - Jon goes to Tatooine and strikes an alliance with Jabba the Hutt, who tips him off about the CIS ' alliance with Boorka the Hutt ( a rival in the planet 's criminal industry ). After defeating a band of Tusken Raiders and the combined Confederate and mercenary forces, Echuu discovers some supply crates destined for the distant world of Krant. Shen - Jon and Reath head to the planet and destroy a Trade Federation mining camp on Krant 's moon, creating a staging area for the invasion of Krant. Wookiee stragglers assist the Republic forces in destroying the CIS Decimator factories, but Tann catches Reath and challenges Shen - Jon to a duel. The Jedi Master kills the Chiss commander, but his brush with the Dark Side of the Force leaves him with enough guilt to go on a self - imposed exile. Echuu later meets with Princess Leia on Krant during the Rebel campaign, where Darth Vader kills him. The last mission follows the Rebel Alliance in their conquest of Coruscant 's Imperial Palace, a few years following the Battle of Endor. Development Star Wars : Galactic Battlegrounds was developed by LucasArts by licensing the Genie game engine from Ensemble Studios. The game, as well as the Clone Campaigns expansion pack, was designed and directed by Garry M. Gaber.
