New Republic

File:NewRepublicCanon.png
The **New Republic** is a faction in DICE's *Star Wars Battlefront* and *Star Wars Battlefront II*. The New Republic was formed by the Rebel Alliance in the final year of the Galactic Civil War as the successor to the Old Republic that the Galactic Empire had replaced. They are unofficially playable exclusively on Jakku in *Battlefront* and are featured in the campaign in *Battlefront II* as a Light Side faction that is the enemy of both the Galactic Empire and the First Order in the Dark Side.

## Trivia

* The New Republic is only referenced on the *Battlefront* website page detailing the Battle of Jakku expansion. In-game on Jakku, the New Republic is not mentioned, only the Rebel Alliance.
	+ This is technically not accurate canonically speaking as the Rebel Alliance had been reorganized into the New Republic by the time of the Battle of Jakku. However, some Imperials still referred to the Republic as rebels, refusing to recognize their legitimacy.
* The New Republic is also mentioned in the online multiplayer of *Battlefront II*.
	+ On Endor: Research Station 9 in Galactic Assault, the Rebel announcer sometimes says "For the New Republic!" at the end of the second and third phases.
	+ Upon using their middle ability, the First Order Officer sometimes says "First the Resistance, then the Republic!" in reference to the New Republic.
		- This line is actually somewhat inaccurate canonically speaking, as the New Republic was destroyed while the Resistance still fought the First Order. This explanation was not made clear until *The Last Jedi*, however, as *The Force Awakens* and related canon material did not make it clear if the New Republic was completely destroyed or not. *The Last Jedi* came out after *Battlefront II* was released, which most likely explains the discrepancy.
		- This is acknowledged in the Resurrection expansion of the *Battlefront II* campaign, which released alongside *The Last Jedi* during *The Last Jedi* Season.
AT-TE/Original

Affiliation:

The **AT-TE**, or the **All Terrain Tactical Enforcer**, is a Republic vehicle that can be operated as a Command Walker be either the player or NPCs. It appeared in both Star Wars: Battlefront and Star Wars: Battlefront II, being playable in several maps in Battlefront, but only appearing in one map in Battlefront II and in the Rise of the Empire campaign.

## Description

AT-TEs are major additions to any battle, with massive firepower and health, due to being Command Vehicles, Its Pilot had two Laser Cannons, and two particle Rockets. The Main Gunner was situated on an all-round turret on top of the AT-TE, and fired a single particle rocket. The Co-Pilot, positioned on the rear of the AT-TE, fires rapid-fire particle beams, which is more effective at destroying units than Ground vehicles.

Bowcaster

The **Bowcaster** is a Star Card featured in *Star Wars Battlefront* and weapon in *Star Wars Battlefront II*. It's known for being used by the Wookies, especially Chewbacca.

## Upgrades

### Overview

Depending on the charge-up time, the Bowcaster fires 1, 3, or 5 explosive bolts.

### How To Use

Hold down the fire button to charge it up. Full charge will fire 5 explosive bolts in a diamond shape. The HUD shows the number of bolts that can be fired at any time.

White dots signify that the bolts might miss their target while the red dots mean that an enemy has been targeted.

If charging up, you can switch weapons to sheathe the Bowcaster, preventing it's use, and consequently, it's cooldown time (the same happens with the Pulse Cannon).

Beware, if fired in close proximity, you can commit suicide.

### Patches

Prior to the Bespin DLC, the Bowcaster fired across through the players line of sight. Chewbacca's bowcaster still does this, however.

Now the Bowcaster requires less charge-up time, shooting in a more circular blast. It has become more of a shotgun type.

## Star Wars Battlefront II

The Bowcaster returns from the first game, but is no longer a star card. It is wielded exclusively by the Wookiee Warrior and Chewbacca.
Score

**Score** is gained by doing damage, getting eliminations, playing the objective, etc.. The score of all players is shown on the scoreboard. Every time you gain score, you gain an equal amount of Battle Points. Thus, Star Cards that increase Battle Points gained do not increase score gained. Heroes gain less score for certain actions.

## Trivia

* The only Star Card that affects Score is Defender.
Bespin

**Bespin** is a gas planet in DICE's *Star Wars Battlefront* and *Star Wars Battlefront II*.

In *Battlefront*, Bespin was added as part of the Bespin Update and could be played by Bespin expansion pack owners. In *Battlefront II*, Bespin could only be played in the singleplayer campaign, however, in the 2.0 Patch a multiplayer map was added to Blast, Heroes vs. Villains, and Jetpack Cargo.

## Overview

*Star Wars Battlefront: Bespin* (the DLC that Bespin is featured in) was released on June 21, 2016 for Season Pass holders and July 5, 2016 for players who wish to purchase the DLC as an individual content pack.

When Walker Assault is played on maps that take place in Cloud City, the player count is dropped to 32 and there is only one walker, similar to what takes place on Endor.

## Maps and modes

 File:Vilhelm-flohr-vilhelmflohr-29.jpg
The following is a list of maps that can be played on Bespin and the game modes that can be played on them:

## Trivia

* Bespin is the only Season Pass locations to have no published concept art.
* According to the developers of the Bespin expansion pack, this version of Cloud City is supposed to be a what-if scenario: how would the Rebel Alliance liberate Cloud City if Darth Vader had fulfilled his threat to Lando Calrissian in *Episiode V: The Empire Strikes Back* and left an Imperial garrison to watch over the city?

501st Legion

"*Far superior to battle droids, clone troopers formed the backbone of the Grand Army of the Republic. Bred from the genetic template of the bounty hunter Jango Fett, they represented the latest evolution in galactic warfare. The 501st Legion was an elite military division that served under the command of General Anakin Skywalker, Commander Ahsoka Tano and Captain Rex. Together, they used numerous unconventional battle tactics and fought bravely in historic conflicts from the Battle of Christophsis to the Siege of Mandalore.*"
— In-game Description
The **501st Legion** is a set of appearances for the Galactic Republic's Assault, Heavy, Officer, and Specialist classes in DICE's *Star Wars Battlefront II*. Phase I 501st Legion appearances are Common and cost 5,000 Credits or 150 Crystals to unlock, while Phase II 501st Legion appearances are Rare and cost 20,000 Credits or 500 Crystals to unlock. Alternatively, the set is also available for purchase in a bundle—simultaneously unlocking the appearances for all four classes—for 60,000 Credits. The 501st Legion was released in The Chosen One Update on February 27, 2019.

## Overview

These skins are based on the appearance of the 501st Legion, a prominent Clone Trooper legion in the Grand Army of the Republic. The 501st Legion fell under the ultimate command of Jedi Knight and General Anakin Skywalker. Along with Skywalker for most of the Clone Wars was his Padawan, Commander Ahsoka Tano. The 501st Legion was also led by Clone Captain Rex and later Clone Commander Appo. The 501st Legion participated in many prominent battles during the Clone Wars and is depicted in both *The Clone Wars* TV series and *Revenge of the Sith*, where, in the latter, they march on the Jedi Temple under Darth Vader and Appo's command as part of Order 66, earning them the nickname "Vader's Fist."

## Trivia

* The lifespan of the 501st Legion was followed in the now non-canon campaign of the original *Star Wars: Battlefront II*, where the legion's actions were narrated by an unknown veteran Clone Trooper from its conception to the Battle of Hoth.

## Updates

*The Chosen One Update*

* Added.

Yoda/Original

**Yoda** is a powerful Jedi Master who is a even match for the powerful lord of the Sith, Darth Sidious. Jedi Master Yoda goes into hiding after the end of the Clone Wars. After Obi-Wan dies, Yoda is the only Jedi Master left, and it is up to him to train Luke Skywalker to battle with Darth Vader and The Emperor. In the game, Yoda is hard to target, but his force attacks could use some improving. He is also difficult to control, with a great deal of jumping and twirling about that tends to send him in unexpected directions. Tall grass is a distinct problem. He fights for the Galactic Republic and the Rebel Alliance.

Bowcaster/Original

The **Bowcaster** is a weapon particularly favored by Wookiees. It is a powerful, cross-bow like weapon which can fire several shots at once, or be charged to fire a single shot which usually affords the user a one-shot kill.

 File:Bowcaster.PNG

## SWBF1

A typical bowcaster holds a total of 210 shots, and can be put to use as a shotgun or a sniper rifle equally well. Firing the weapon uncharged will produce a line of around seven projectiles which can be devastating at close range and reasonably effective at engaging enemy infantry at a distance. Using charged shots, Stormtroopers, Shock Troopers, Engineers, and officers are 2 hit kills, while scouts and jump troopers are 1 hit kills. Uncharged shots 6 shot kill Stormtroopers, Engineers, and officers, Shock Troopers are 8 hit killed, and a bowcaster 4 hit kills Snipers and Dark Troopers.

## SWBF2

Instead of the bowcaster needing to be charged to spray more bolts, the bowcaster will automatically spray its maximum bolts without charging. It can be charged to fire a single, concentrated bolt, dealing a lot mroe damage. A skilled marksman will make good use of the charge feature on the weapon. This has the potential to deliver, as a regular sniper rifle would, a killing head-shot.

The weapon is also equipped with a telescopic sight, similar to that found on a sniper rifle in that it can zoom in twice to afford the user astonishing range. Combined with the accuracy of the weapon, which makes delivering a head-shot all the more likely, a skilled marksman will find that this weapon is almost essential for sniping, certainly as effective as, if not more, effective than a standard sniper rifle, in that its user can engage in close combat as well as having the capability to eliminate infantry from a considerable range, a valuable asset and devastating on the battlefield.

The weapon is also notable for having been used by the wookiee, Chewbacca.

## Units

* Chewbacca
* Wookiee Warrior

* Back to Weapons

The **Wookiee Bowcaster** (sometimes called the **Wookiee Crossbow**) was a Wookiee short-range projectile weapon that fired a metal quarrel enveloped in energy. Bowcasters could load multiple quarrels to create a spread-fire effect, and were given further enhancing with close range effectiveness.
Some Wookiees made their bowcasters out of Blaster Rifles.

 File:250px-Bowcaster negwt.jpg
Naboo/Original

**Naboo** was a bountiful planet in the Mid Rim, close to the border of the Outer Rim Territories. It was home to the Gungan species and to a population of humans known as the Naboo.

## Missions

The Battle of Naboo- This mission takes place on the Naboo: Plains map. You are playing as the CIS against the Gungan Grand Army. All the units are the same except the super battle droid is changed into a regular battle droid. The Gungans have the shield generator like in the film, but it really doesn't have an effect on the battle other than block incoming attacks. The Gungans are heavily armed with their plasma grenades which act like the Republic's EMP Grenade. Unlike the film, the grenades don't give an automatic kill, more than likely so the player's reinforcement meter wouldn't be quickly depleted.

Rebellion in Theed- This mission is fought on Naboo: Theed. You are the CIS fighting against the Royal Naboo Security Force. You have a regular Battle Droid instead of a Super Battle Droid.

Naboo - Imperial Diplomacy- During the rise of the Empire, the Emperor's home planet of Naboo rapidly established itself as a major irritant. After a number of Naboo's ambassadors were sent home in various states of dismemberment, her newly-elected Queen broke off diplomatic ties and began exploring military options. Clearly it was time for a regime change; a change that would be effected by the 501st, now under the direct command of Darth Vader. Our orders were simple: to infiltrate the city, take out their leader -- sending a clear signal to other potential troublemakers in the Empire.

DLT-20A/Original

A beautiful weapon, the DLT-20 is a thoroughly average blaster rifle. Heavy and expensive it proved impractical for field use. Its low stopping power and rather low rate of fire drawing harsh criticism from major armies. It is fairly accurate and possesses quite decent range but most troops do not see it as worth the drawbacks. Its appearance has lead to its use by some ceremonial units and its stun setting gave it a small role in the area of policing but overall this was a disappointing performance by an otherwise respected manufacturer.
Geonosis

**Geonosis** is a planet featured in DICE's *Star Wars Battlefront II*. It was the site of the first battle of the Clone Wars, the Battle of Geonosis.

A map set on Geonosis, Trippa Hive, was added on November 28, 2018 as part of the Battle of Geonosis Update and could be played in Galactic Assault. Another map set on Geonosis, Pipeline Junction West, was released several months later on March 26, 2019 as part of the Capital Supremacy Update and could be played in Capital Supremacy.

## Overview

Geonosis is a desert planet located deep in the Outer Rim Territories of the galaxy. It is the homeworld of the Geonosians, an incredibly productive bug species known for being experts on weapons design. Geonosis was home to droid foundries that manufactured the Battle Droids used by the Separatists, whom they had joined, in the Clone Wars, and it was the Geonosians that designed the original blueprints to the Death Star. Geonosis was a battleground between the Galactic Republic and the Separatists multiple times. The planet and its people were eventually sterilized by the Galactic Empire to keep the Death Star project secret.

## Maps and modes

The following is a list of maps that are set on Geonosis and the modes that they can be played in:

* Trippa Hive
	+ Arcade
	+ Blast
	+ Co-Op
	+ Galactic Assault
	+ Heroes vs. Villains
* Pipeline Junction West
	+ Instant Action
	+ Capital Supremacy

## Trivia

* Unlike other locations, Geonosis was designed with Capital Supremacy in mind rather than Galactic Assault.
* Geonosis is the first location in DICE's *Star Wars Battlefront II* to feature two large-scale maps.

## Updates

*Cooperation Update*

* Trippa Hive playable in new offline mode Co-Op.
* Pipeline Junction West playable in new offline mode Instant Action.

*Capital Supremacy Update*

* Added Pipeline Junction West map.

*Darth Tyranus Update*

* Added Geonosis to Arcade, Blast, and Heroes vs. Villains.

EE-3 Blaster Rifle/Original

The **EE-3 Blaster Rifle** is the gun wielded by Boba Fett. It operates much like an Elite Rifle and Han Solo's DL-44 Blaster Pistol in the way it shoots and handles. It fires a three-round burst, allowing for a lot of

 File:EE-3.PNG  damage in only one shot. It takes a second to fire again, though, so you need to be accurate.

The EE-3 carbine rifle was a blaster that was modeled after the E-11 blaster rifle used by Imperial Stormtroopers. The rifle consisted of a small handle attached to a long circular barrel. An alternate version of this model features a modified scope mounting and hand grips that run the length of the barrel.

The EE-3 was used famously by the bounty hunter Boba Fett. Fett modified his by adding a stock and an electronic scope for distance shooting, making it a dangerous weapon. Prince Xizor also used an EE-3 to try to kill Luke Skywalker as the Jedi and his friends escaped the Falleen's palace on Coruscant. Another user of this weapon was the Zabrak bounty hunter Sugi, who wielded it during the Clone Wars and Kiera Swan a Weequay bounty hunter, who died during "The Box" competition.

Command Post/Original

File:Star-wars-battlefront-ii-20050422060858392 640w.jpg
**Command Posts**, or **CPs**, are key spots on the battlefield. They appear in different colors to represent the faction they belong to. If they appear green (or blue in Battlefront II), then it belongs to your team. If the CP is red, then the command post is your enemy's. In Battlefront there are also yellow coloured neutral command posts that spawn neutral teams which side with no one. These NPCs include Wookiees, Tusken Raiders, Jawas, Gungans and the Royal Naboo. This format is not to be confused with any good side or bad side format because blue/green is always you and red is always the enemy.  White CP's are owned by neither team and may be captured by either.

## Usefulness of Command Posts

* They are places where units can respawn. If you don't have any than you can't respawn reinforcements.
* They affect reinforcement numbers and if you own less than 2 you lose reinforcements. the same is true about the enemy's.
* If you own all the command posts the victory timer with twenty seconds will count down. If no command posts are lost by the time the timer reaches 0, then you win the battle.
* In Star Wars: Battlefront II, you must control 1/2 +1 of the CPs to cause Reinforcement loss.
* If you control a command post, some of your team's vehicles will appear there.

## Trivia

* In the game, all a player needs to do to capture a CP is stand near it until the cross icon at the side goes from red to white to green (or blue in the case of Battlefront 2).

* The command post in the shield bunker is destroyable in Battlefront but not in Battlefront II

* The command post from Elite Squadron and Renegade Squadron does not look the same as in the normal skins shown in the SWBF main line.

* The command post seen in the BFIII Alpha Footage has a different design again to any of the previous ones.

## Other command posts

* Some command posts are destructible and cannot be captured by the enemy team.
* Vehicles such as the AT-AT and AT-TE also serve as moving command posts.
* Nonmoving structures like the Techno-Union ships, Assembly Area, and Shield Generator act as command posts and must be destroyed in to stop enemy reinforcments from spawning there.
* In space, a gunship can serve as a command post, though players can't respawn from it while it's in space.

V-Wing/Original

Affiliation:

The **V-Wing**, or **Apha-3 *Nimbus*-Class V-wing starfighter** is the bomber class ship for the Galactic Republic. It has quite a bit of health for a single-man craft. It's bombs are excellent for both dive bombing and horizontal bombing, and is good for taking out the various critical points on the enemy's flagship. This is handy for getting points quickly. In close range, the Shock Cannon is excellent for taking out enemy starfighters, particularly Droid Starfighters. They are better at destroying enemy craft than some other bombers. These starfighter will definitely be in demand, especially in the small space battles, as they are one of the more useful ships in the game. This ship is also very agile for a bomber, and can be used to dogfight with and escape from even Droid Tri-Fighters. (Equivalent- TIE Bomber, CIS Strike Bomber, Y-Wing).

The V-wing is part of the bomber class. Their specialty rests in destroying turrets, breaking through shields, and destroying mission objectives. Equipped with proton bombs, the V-wing needs to get relatively close to its target to cause the desired damage. This means the V-wing needs to go deep into enemy territory, which is dangerous given its slower speeds and limited energy supply. This is sacrificed for greater hull strength, the hallmark of all bombers. Luckily, the V-wing has an increased base speed (compared with other bombers) and is equipped with powerful laser cannons. This allows the V-wing to dogfight with other dogfighting classes, without the option to track targets from long range. This increased maneuverability allows the V-wing to survive longer than the standard bomber.

## Attacks

 Proton Bombs | File:Proton Bomb.png | Infinite Count

## Trivia

* In the Star Wars universe the V-wing is the predecessor to the A-Wing and the TIE series.
* Also in the Star Wars universe the V-wing is a starfighter/interceptor. The SWBFII usage of it as a bomber is inappropriate canonically. A more reasonable choice would be the Republic Y-Wing or the ARC-170.
* Among the bombers, the V-Wing is the fastest and most maneuverable.

Battle Droid Commander

The **Battle Droid Commander** is the Officer unit for the Separatists in DICE's *Star Wars Battlefront II*. Battle Droid Commanders have yellow markings on their chests and heads. They are better tacticians than the normal Battle Droids used by the Separatists and they act as a commander to the droid forces. Like all Officers, the Battle Droid Commander's primary abilities are Flash Grenade, Battle Command, and Blaster Turret, though these can be swapped out and/or upgraded through Ability Card. Droid Commanders wield the RG-4D blaster pistol as their default blaster.

DH-17 Blaster Pistol/Original

The **BlasTech DH-17 Blaster Pistol** is the blaster in the *Star Wars* universe. It has appeared in many mods for the *Star Wars: Battlefront* series. It officially debuted as usable weapon in *Star Wars Battlefront* video game.

DL-44 Blaster Pistol

> The DL-44 is one of the most powerful blaster pistol in the galaxy. It delivers massive damage at close range, but overheats quickly.
>
> In-game description

## Weapon statistics

### **Range**

>20 meters damage drops off until 40 meters

### **Cooldown (failed)**

2.72 seconds

The **DL-44** is the blaster pistol featured in *Star Wars Battlefront* and *Star Wars Battlefront II*. It is the famous blaster pistol model used by Han Solo.

## Star Wars Battlefront

### Overview

The **DL-44** is the last weapon unlocked in the base game and is unlocked at rank 25 and can be purchased with 2,500 credits. If the player however, is using the Deluxe, Digital Deluxe and Ultimate editions of the game, they will get the weapon for free as soon as they open the game.

The DL-44 has the second highest damage per-shot in the game (rivaling the T-21 blaster which deals 50 damage per shot) combined with its 210 RPM makes it very deadly at close range. The only in-game weapon with more damage is the DLT-19X rifle which deals 100 damage at maximum and 67 damage at minimum.

The DL-44 will reliably kill with two shots in the chest up from 20 meters, but at around 20-40 meters, it will require three hits to kill and this increases over distance. At long range, target leading may be needed if the enemy is moving sideways due to blaster shot travel time.

It is recommended to use Jump Pack if the user wishes to close in on the enemy allowing for the minimum distance needed to get a two shot kill. A long range Star Card such as Pulse Cannon or Homing Shot should be used at medium/long range incase the player feels he/she cannot kill the enemy at such ranges.

## Trivia

* The DL-44 is based on the Mauser C96 pistol, but with an added scope and barrel modification.

Hoth/Original

## Hoth

**Hoth** is a planet featured in the original trilogy of the Star Wars saga, as well as all games in the **Star Wars: Battlefront Series**.
Among most species in the galaxy, Hoth isn't a very well known planet, due to its location in the Anoat Sector. Therefore, it is a rarely traveled portion of the Outer Rim territories. Hoth is the sixth planet in the Hoth system, and is covered with snow and ice. It is mostly known for its arctic weather, deadly wampas, and tauntauns (used by the Rebel Alliance as transport). One major battle that took place on Hoth was the Battle of Hoth, when the Empire had found the Rebels' secret base and caused them many casualties.

## Maps

* Hoth: Echo Base

Hoth: Echo Base is a very open map and mostly long-range combat is required. Most of the map is outside on Hoth's frozen tundra. Many parts of Echo Base are playable on the map, including a hangar, the command center, and several corridors. There are also 2 bunkers, the Shield Generator, the Hangar, and about 4 main groups of trenches lined with turrets. Two AT-ATs give the Empire the firepower needed to destroy the Shield Generator which can be used as a spawn location, while the Rebels have an arsenal of four Snowspeeders inside the hangar. This map is slightly different between Star Wars Battlefront I and II. In the first, there is a tunnel leading to the Shield Generator from one of the bunkers. In the second, this tunnel is collapsed.

* Hoth: Snow Plains

To be added, content from Star Wars: Battlefront: Elite Squadron. The map is very open, and has a AT-AT as a mobile command post. It is similar to the original maps from the first two games, although the Shield Generator can't be destroyed, and is instead a command post.

* Others

Also available on Hoth are the space map Space Hoth and a campaign mode is available on the Echo Base map Hoth- The Battle of Hoth (from SWBFI) and Hoth- Our Finest Hour (from SWBFII). Also Ch. 7: Echo Base- Evacuating Echo Base and Ch. 8: Space Hoth- Evacuating Hoth from Star Wars: Battlefront: Renegade Squadrons Campaign mode take place on Hoth.

In addition the Hunt mode on Hoth takes place after the Campaign maps (for both BF I and II), with Echo Base in a semi destroyed state, overrun by Wampas.

Obi-Wan Kenobi/Original

**Obi-Wan Kenobi** is one of the only characters to make an appearance in every film besides The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi, whether alive or as a ghost. The first time Obi Wan Kenobi appears in the films is in *Episode I: The Phantom Menace*, when he is still the apprentice of Qui-Gon Jinn. After the tragic death of his Master, Obi-Wan takes on the young Anakin Skywalker as his apprentice. He later destroys General Grievous, and is one of the few to survive the execution of Order 66. Forced into facing the newly-dubbed Darth Vader, Obi-Wan defeats the Sith Lord, casting him into the lava rivers of Mustafar. He faces Darth Vader again in *Episode IV: A New Hope*, after beginning the training of Luke Skywalker, where he becomes "one with the Force" and must mentor Luke as a ghost. His image aids Luke Skywalker in finding Yoda to complete his training, and his specter is even able to celebrate the victory of the Rebel Alliance at the end of *Episode VI: Return of the Jedi*. In the game, Obi-Wan is a great fighter, and his lightsaber battling covers a large range around him, killing many foes. He also has a killer running attack.

## Attacks (All Games)

 Force Push | File:Force Push.PNG | Infinite Use

## Gameplay

Obi-Wan Kenobi is a fast-paced fighter, and wields a blue-bladed lightsaber. His attacks consist of rapid strikes. Kenobi is capable of jumping four times consecutively, enabling him to reach high altitudes fast. When jumping, Obi-Wan is able to attack with a single swipe. When sprinting, Obi-Wan can attack with a decently accurate flurry of attacks, which stops his momentum.

## Trivia

* The skin for Obi-Wan in SWBF:RS and SWBF:ES is how he looked in Episode II, however, in Star Wars Battlefront II it is how he looked in Episode III.
* The Rebel Hero, Ben Kenobi, is in a separate article.
* In the Star Wars Universe, Obi Wan uses Form 3, Soresu, but his model is a Juyo stance.
* His lightsaber moves are exactly the same as the moves used by Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars Battlefront II.
* All of the places Obi-Wan can be played in are places that he's been to from the movies.
* He is one of the few heroes from the original trilogy not to appear in the DICE remake.
* He is voiced by James Arnold Taylor in Star Wars: Battlefront II.

DL-44 Blaster Pistol/Original

The **DL-44 Blaster Pistol** is the standard issue Blaster Pistol for the Rebel Alliance.

The DL-44 was cheap to manufacture, but sturdy and reliable. It is a great weapon for standard usage. This gun will kill an average-health enemy in 7 shots or 3 head shots. This pistol is not only used by the Rebel Alliance but also by the Temple Security Force and the Royal Naboo Security Forces.

## Units

*A list of units that use this weapon.*

* Rebel Soldier
* Rebel Marksman
* Rebel Vanguard
* Rebel Smuggler

## Trivia

* The BlasTech DL-44 Blaster Pistol is based on the Mauser C96. Unlike the weapon it's based on, however, it lacks the wooden shoulder to make it like a semi-automatic rifle.
* In *Star Wars* canon, the smuggler Han Solo uses this weapon as his weapon of choice, but in *Star Wars: Battlefront II*, he uses the DL-44a Commando Pistol.

Blaster Rifle

**Blaster rifles** are a type of weapon in DICE's *Star Wars Battlefront* and *Star Wars Battlefront II* that can be wielded by infantry. Generally more effective at longer ranges than blaster pistols, these weapons are highly accessible due to their balance between damage, rate of fire, and heat dispersion.

In *Star Wars Battlefront II*, blaster rifles are limited to the Assault class.

## *Star Wars Battlefront*

There are five blaster rifles in *Star Wars Battlefront*, and can be equipped in the Weapons menu.
Rebel Soldier/Original

The main unit of the Rebel Alliance, the **Rebel Soldier** is equipped with basic weapons for taking out the enemy units.The Rebel Soldiers are the all-purpose infantry, and the Rebel Alliance team will probably be mostly comprised of these guys. (Equivalent to- Super Battle Droid, Stormtrooper, Clone Trooper)
The trooper has the average toughness, shared with the smuggler. Though tougher than the Marksman or the Bothan Spy, they cannot take as many hits as the Vanguard, and they can take only about half as much damage as the Wookiee Warrior.

Sarlacc

The Sarlacc is a non-playable creature that appears in Star Wars Battlefront

## Overview

The Sarlacc is a dangerous enemy seen exclusively on Dune Sea Exchange, Battles: Tatooine and Hero Battles: Tatooine. Just like in Pandemic Studios' *Star Wars: Battlefront*, the Sarlacc is invulnerable. As expected, if a player falls into it without a Jump Pack as a means of escape, then they will be trapped inside the stomach and their player health slowly depleted.

## Trivia

* Unlike the original game the Sarlacc doesn't use it's tentacles to grab players (even if these can be seen).
* By use of his Jetpack, Boba Fett is the only character who can escape the Sarlacc.
* However The Emperor may be able to fly out.
* If a player is very lucky, they can use their Jump Pack to get away.
Yavin 4/Original

## Yavin 4

**Yavin IV**, or **Yavin 4**, is the fourth moon above the gas giant planet of Yavin. It was the site of an ancient Sith Temple in use during the Great Sith War, and the housing of the Massasi Temples. Hundreds of years later it was the location of the Rebel's secret base. Featuring the Rebel Base itself, and many ruins. Most of the moon is covered in jungle, including much of the ruins.

## Maps

* Yavin 4: Temple

This map is the Yavin 4 in the movies, and is found in Battlefront II as well. It features the thin towers, the temple hanger, and the control area.

* Yavin 4: Arena

One of the other temples found on Yavin 4. Best known for the epic battle between Anakin Skywalker and Asajj Ventress in the *Star Wars: Clone Wars* animated series.

* Space Yavin

The Space Yavin map takes place at the Blockade of Yavin, that took place right after the Battle of Yavin. The Galactic Empire blockaded the planet, and prevented Rebel Alliance Transports from leaving the system.
Cloud Car/Original

Affiliation:

The **Cloud Car**, more formally known as the **Storm-IV Twin Pod Cloud Car**, is a small orange vehicle that serves as a starfighter to all factions in *Star Wars: Battlefront*.
It is very fast considerably agile, completing 180 degree turns in an instant. However, it has poor acceleration and long takeoff time, leaving it very vulnerable at takeoff. It is able to seat two troopers, a pilot and a gunner. The pilot can make use of a laser cannon while the gunner can fire remote rockets.

## Attacks

 Remote Rocket | File:Remote Rocket.png | Infinite Count

## Trivia

* The Cloud Car only appears on the map Bespin: Platforms, making it one of the least frequently appearing vehicles in the game.
* After you capture one of the enemy's platform Command Posts, Cloud Cars will spawn where the enemy's ships were located.
Wrist Rocket/Original

> Watch those wristrockets!
>
> Clone Trooper

The **Wrist Rocket** is the secondary weapon used by a some of the units in-game. It is a rocket fired obviously from the wrist of the unit. It flies fairly slow, so you'll generally have to aim ahead of moving targets. There are a very limited number of rockets, so conserving them for more important targets is intelligent, as if you hit, a large amount damage will be taken. Wrist rockets can be rather difficult to use effectively, and involve a lot of luck. Save them for heroes (beware of lightsaber deflection) and powerful units.

TIE Defender/Original

Affiliation:

The **TIE/D Defender** was a high-performance TIE series starfighter developed for the Imperial Navy by Sienar Fleet Systems shortly before the Battle of Hoth. Representing a shift in starfighter design from previous TIE models, the ship featured a hyperdrive as well as deflector shields to allow it to operate independent of Imperial capital ships. The ship's speed and agility, combined with its firepower, made it arguably the most advanced starfighter available at the time.
This ship is a great tool, however it didn't make the first two games, because the ships took up to much space in an already overcrowded game. It was later added into the Star Wars: Battlefront: Elite Squadron and Star Wars: Battlefront: Renegade Squadron games as a Imperial escort. This ship is also incredibly popular in Space Mods.

## Attacks

 Homing Rockets | File:Homing Rocket.png | Infinite Count

## Trivia

* In Star Wars canon, the TIE defender's dorsal wings hold a pair of ion cannons, while the Starboard and Port wings carry Assault Laser Cannons.
* When you capture a neutral Space Station in Star Wars: Battlefront: Renegade Squadron this ship will spawn there like in the image "Near an Asteroid".
* This ship appears in mods in Star Wars Battlefront II.
