2019 Revival and Updates news - Republic Commando: Battlefront mod for Star Wars Battlefront II

Republic Commando: Battlefront recently resumed development in November 2018 after a four-year hiatus. Many changes have been made since then and this mod's original inception. Aside from some progress being posted on related Discord channels, this will be the first major update in a while now that this Mod DB page has finally been un-archived.

To start, Conquest mode is now supported on various stock maps, including a custom renovated version of the SWBF1 (2004) map, Kashyyyk: Islands. Unlike Uber mode, which features Red versus Blue clone commandos, Conquest will actually have commandos and allies fighting against separatist forces, including Trandoshans.

The Republic side consists of the following playable units:

Republic Clone Assault Commando

Weapons: DC-17m Blaster Attachment, DC-15s Side Arm Blaster, Thermal Detonators, EC Detonators

Republic Clone Demolitions Commando

Weapons: Wookiee Guided Rocket Launcher, DC-15s Side Arm Blaster, Sonic Detonators, Detpacks

Republic Clone Sniper Commando

Weapons: DC-17m Sniper Attachment, DC-15s Side Arm Blaster, Thermal Detonators, Proximity Mines

Republic Clone Ranger Commando

Weapons: ACP Array Gun, DC-17m Anti-Armor Attachment, F-187 Fusion Cutter, Dispenser Health & Ammo

Republic Clone Recon Commando

Weapons: Wookiee Bowcaster, ACP Repeater Gun, Sonic Detonators, Thermal Detonators

Republic Clone Heavy Commando

Weapons: Z-6 Rotary Blaster Cannon, DC-17m Ion Attachment, EC Detonators, Auto Turrets

The commandos will be aided by standard Clone Troopers, who are very limited in numbers compared to the Separatist forces.

On Kashyyyk maps and Alaris Prime: Gorge, Wookiee units will be non-playable allies of the Republic but also playable in their own era against Trandoshans.

Wookiee Warrior and Wookiee Defender

Weapons: X1 Disruptor Carbine, Wookiee Bowcaster, Thermal Detonators

Weapons: Wookiee Guided Rocket Launcher, Wookiee Bowcaster, Thermal Detonators, Proximity Mines

Wookiee Chieftain

Weapons: Kashyyyk Long-Gun, Wookiee Bowcaster, F-187 Fusion Cutter, Dispenser Health & Ammo

Wookiee Berserker

Weapons: Wookiee Slug-Thrower, Ryyk Blades

Separatist and Trandoshan forces consist of the following units:

Trandoshan Mercenary

Weapons: Trandoshan Hunting Rifle, ACP Repeater Gun, Thermal Detonators

Trandoshan Grenadier

Weapons: Stouker Concussion Rifle, ACP Repeater Gun, Thermal Detonators, Proximity Mines

Trandoshan Slaver

Weapons: ACP Array Gun, ACP Repeater Gun, F-187 Fusion Cutter, Dispenser Health & Ammo

Trandoshan Elite

Weapons: TL-50 Heavy Repeater, Concussion Grenade Launcher, Detpacks

Separatist B2 Super Battle Droid

Weapons: Wrist Blaster, Wrist Rockets

Separatist Q-Series Droideka

Weapons: Repeating Blasters, Shield Emitter

They will be aided by non-playable B1 Battle Droids, while weak individually, overwhelm the Republic Commandos in great numbers. In addition, the DSD1 Dwarf Spider Droid will be available on various maps as a vehicle.
