*The '''Rebel Vanguard''' is an authentic rocketry unit in that each time you fire its rocket launcher, two rockets are fired.  If you aim at the center of a vehicle, the rockets will home in and find their target.  The Vanguard is also useful in narrow hallways, as the rockets will cover more ground and create more devastation than most other units.  The Vanguard's second weapon is a pistol, and he carries 4 grenades and 4 mines.

*As far as sniper classes go, the '''Rebel Marksman''' is a fairly good soldier.  Its sniper rifle inflicts decent damage and has 2 levels of zoom; the main advantage to this unit is its ability to use the sniper rifle in close-range combat.  The biggest problem with this unit is the fact that there are no good levels for sniping in the campaign; to take full advatage of the Marksman, play Galactic Conquest or Instant Action.  If you run out of ammo for your rifle, the Marksman also carries a blaster pistol, 4 grenades, and a recon droid.

*There is almost no variation between the pilot classes in this game, and the '''Rebel Pilot''' is no exception.  Its main weapon is a tri-shot, which is relatively similar to a flechette shotgun.  From close range, these units can pack a punch against infantry, but their strength lies in, well, piloting.  They carry the customary blaster pistol, fusion cutter, and health/ammo dispensers, as well as the ability to repair vehicles they occupy.

*The '''Wookie Bowcaster''' is the Rebel Alliance's special unit.  Don't be fooled; despite their slow pace, these Wookies are well armed.  Their main gun is, as their name suggests, a bowcaster.  If you hold down the fire button, it will charge up to become a spray shot, optimum for multiple enemies, moving targets or persons with bad aim.  And that's not all; their secondary, and equally devastating, weapon is a grenade launcher.  Hold down your primary attack button to fire the grenades longer distances.  The Wookie's only secondary attack item is a time bomb; when placed, they have a 5-second fuse.  Additionally, time bombs can be attached to walls, turrets, vehicles, or even infantry if you have the mind.  Wookies carry 3 time bombs.
