==Rebels==
==Rebels==
Rebels are, in line with franchise lore, the shabbiest-looking but the bravest faction of the four main ones available in the game. They may have no armor, but this doesn't give them any disadvantage in comparison to the white-clad Imperial troops. The Rebels in Battlefront II are comprised of humans, Bothans, and Wookiees, all of whom receive damages from being underwater for too long and being out in space.

===Rebel Soldier===
===Rebel Soldier===
A basic infantry unit. The Rebel Soldier is equipped with a blaster rifle, a blaster pistol, and four thermal detonators. Like all "Soldier" classes, the unit is well rounded out and acts as a grunt. On the Death Star and Tantive IV map, this unit is dressed in gray, black and white with a hat; on all others the Rebel Soldier is an older man in camouflage colors.

On Hoth, this unit is dressed in a white camouflage to blend it with the snow.

===Scout Trooper===
Easily recognizable with their unique helmet style, Scout Troopers are equipped with a sniper rifle, a blaster pistol, two grenades, and an automatic turret that can watch their back while sniping. Like all sniper classes, Scout Troopers are very fast on their feet.

===Dark Trooper===
===Dark Trooper===
Dark Troopers are lightly armored, but are equipped with a jetpack. Obviously, they can get around much faster and easier than other units, but the fuel is limited (it charges back up though) and the jetpack tends to just shoot up for a short while and put the player back down, unlike the jetpack of the Republic Jet Troopers. These soldiers are also equipped with Arc Casters (they fire streams of lightning that can be charged to hit multiple enemies at once), blaster pistols, and four thermal detonators.
Dark Troopers are lightly armored, but are equipped with a jump-pack that helps them get around more quickly and than other units. However, jump-pack fuel is limited (it charges back up over time when not used) and the jump-pack, unlike the Republic Jet Trooper's jetpack, tends to just shoot up at a more rapid rate for a shorter time and drops the player back down quicker. These soldiers are also equipped with Arc Casters (they fire streams of lightning that can be charged to hit multiple enemies at once), commando blaster pistols, and four thermal detonators.

===Heavy Trooper===
===Heavy Trooper===
Just as his name implies, this unit is used for the heavy stuff. Heavy Troopers are outfitted with the same equipment as all other anti-vehicular units, with a rocket launcher, mines, two grenades, and a pistol.

===Clone Sharpshooter===
===Clone Sharpshooter===
A sniper unit with a rifle, a blaster pistol, two grenades, and an automatic turret that can defend his back. They come in three types of armor (only different in appearance): white-and-red on Geonosis (phase I clone captain armor), camouflage colors (actually works) on Kashyyyk and Felucia, and white with a strange-looking helmet and cape on all other maps (commander Bacara-style armor).

===Clone Commander===
===Clone Commander===
An elite unit, a Clone Commander can dish out massive damage with his chaingun. This weapon, similar to the Gatling gun, has infinite ammo (it can overheat, however) but takes one second to warm up before firing. In case this weapon overheats (or in an emergency), he can turn to his Commando Pistol (an improved version of the blaster pistol). Commanders also have the Rally area effect (can power up nearby allies) and a recon droid, with the blaster and self-destruct capabilities.

===Jet Trooper===
===Jet Trooper===
Jet troopers are flying units like the Dark Troopers, but their jetpacks allow for sustained flying with more control than the latter's "burst" jetpacks. Jet troopers are equipped with EMP launchers, which fire a rocket-like ball of energy at enemies. They are extremely powerful, but ammo is scarce. They are also given commando pistols and four thermal detonators.

They are given commando pistols (more accurate than the standard pistol, times between shots are shorter, but they deal slightly less damage) and four thermal detonators.
