Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds

Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds is a real-time strategy game built on the Age of Empires II engine. The original game has six campaigns, two centered around the Wookiee race, and one each centered around Gungans, The Trade Federation, The Galactic Empire, and the Rebel Alliance.


 * The first campaign (the tutorial) centers around Attichitcuk, the father of Chewbacca, and his quest to rid Alaris Prime, a world the wookies were given colonization rights to, of the Trade Federation. You are guided through the tutorial by Qui-Gon Jinn.


 * The second campaign is that of the gungans, centered first around Boss Galo, an ancient ancestor of boss nass who lived thousands of years before episode I. This part of the campaign deals with a civil war between tribes under Boss Galo and tribes under the control of a vicious gungan dictator by the name of Boss Rogoe. then Boss Nass, the current leader of the Gungans at the time of Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace This campaign details a series of battles between the gungans and Trade Federation.


 * The third and final campaign from Episode 1 is that of the Trade Federation. It follows OOM-9, the de facto droid leader of the Trade Federation's army. This campaign tells the story of several battles on Naboo between the Trade Federation and Gungans. It begins with the beggining of the invasion with an assault on several Naboo villages, the destruction of major Naboo cities, the destruction of the gungan capitol, Otoh Gunga, and an alternate history level, "If the Trade Federation won the invasion of Naboo." (This level deals with a failed assualt on a droid control ship, which included the death of Anakin Skywalker, Darth Maul killing Obi-wan and Qui-gon, along with a number of other ideas that would drastically change the Star Wars universe.)


 * The fourth campaign is the campaign of the Empire. Darth Vader is your main character in this campaign, and the events take place just before and during Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. The campaign includes several battles between the Empire and Rebels, including versions of the battle of Cloud City, and an alternate history level to the Battle of Endor.


 * The fifth campaign is the campaign of the Rebelion. Your main character this time around varies from level to level.  Some times it is Princess Leia, while other times it is Luke Skywalker, or others.  The events of this campaign are outside the scope of the movies. They deal with Princess Leia's exploits with a jedi master named Echuu-Shen Jon, including a series of battles with the imperial asteroid base of Gedes. (Later to be known as the Rebel allied colony of Hanoon.) The campaign also deals with a battle between the empire and the rebels which takes place very early on in the galactic civil war.


 * The sixth and final campaign is the final Wookiee campaign. this takes place after Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, during which time the Imperial remnants are trying to keep the Empire together, and have attacked Kashyyyk.  The main character of this campaign is Han Solo.  Chewbacca makes appearances, as does Attichitcuk.


 * The Nubian race (that of Naboo) is also a playable race in the game, but there are no campaigns centered around that civilization.

Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds: Clone Campaigns is an expansion pack that was released shortly after the theatrical release of Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones. It introduced two more playable civilizations and two more campaigns: That of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the Old Republic.


 * In the Seperatist campaign, your hero is Severance Tann, and you are guided by Count Dooku himself. Your goal is to capture the energy-mining platforms of the Galactic Republic so that you can effectively hold Coruscant hostage, and take control of the decimators, a secret weapon developed by the Republic.

 * In the Galactic Republic campaign, Mace Windu tells you what to do as you control Echuu Shen-Jon, a Jedi you meet "later" in the Rebel campaign. Your goal is to get back the energy platforms and destroy the Decimators.
