We finally turn to the last topic in movement: rolling. Rolling is when you strafe and press jump. Your player will do a dive, and then finish with a roll. It's very useful in skirmishes, to make a get-away, or to move past a hallway where lasers are flying about left and right. When you are being shot at, your first action should be to roll away and fire back, if at range. | We finally turn to the last topic in movement: rolling. Rolling is when you strafe and press jump.

==Basic gameplay== | |||
When you start a game, you start on a selection screen of characters and spawn points, also known as "command posts." The basic points of the game are to capture and hold command points to allow a greater spawning area while depleting the enemy's "reinforcements." Each team starts with a number of reinforcements. Every time someone dies, the person's team loses a reinforcement point. Most games are won by depleting all of the enemy's reinforcements. A game may also be won if a team holds all command posts on the map for 20 seconds. | |||
===Types of command posts=== | |||
There are three types of command posts. | |||
# Normal command posts appear as circles on the map. They can be taken by any side or indigenous NPCs. | |||
# Destructible command posts appear as diamonds on the map. They have a very large amount of health and can only be held by one side. The other side should try to destroy these destructible command posts with heavy vehicles. Examples include the generator in Hoth and the bunker in Endor. | |||
# Mobile command posts appear in a large vehicle shape on the map. They are AT-ATs and AT-TEs. They can also be destroyed, although they have a lot of health. Only the Republic and the Empire have mobile command posts, and these command posts can only be held by them, even if the opposite side is piloting the vehicle. | |||
