** Super Battle Droids are called that for a reason -- they're bigger, stronger, and tougher than regular battle droids, and a single squadron of them are more than enough to get Jedi Masters such as ''Obi-Wan Kenobi'' to surrender. Here, they serve as standard troops for the CIS, so they have the same health as regular clone troopers and bigger hitboxes to boot.

** Your team will also call you out for friendly fire: for example, Clone Troopers might yell, "Was it something I said?"

** The Clone Pilot's Bolt Caster now deals higher damage, making it legitimately dangerous as a hitscan weapon with decent fire rate that can kill most enemies in 2 uncharged shots.

* CanonForeigner: Out of all the planets with playable maps, Rhen Var is the only one that never appeared in the movies, and was likely included as a nod to Pandemic Studios' previous work on ''VideoGame/StarWarsTheCloneWars''. While it did have some relevance to the ''Legends'' continuity, it's reduced to a mere footnote in the Disney EU. Downplayed with Kashyyyk, which was more of an EarlyBirdCameo for the planet's proper debut in ''Film/RevengeOfTheSith''[[note]]though the planet had previously appeared in the infamous [[Film/TheStarWarsHolidaySpecial holiday special]][[/note]]; however, the movie's Kashyyyk battleground (depicted in the second game) was completely different from either of the playable maps in the first game.

** Similar to Rhen Var, the Republic's TX-130s Fighter Tank came from Pandemic's ''The Clone Wars'' video game and not any of the films. Made for this game, however, are the TX-130t Fighter Tank (which is simply a recolored TX-130s to give the Empire a more conventional tank on some maps), the Rebel Combat Speeder (a modified Gian Speeder introduced to give the Rebels their own tank when they had none in the films), and the Separatist MAF (which was mainly included to give a Separatist counterpart to the Republic's LAAT, and is a mix of recycling unused concept art from ''Film/ThePhantomMenace'' and a loose EarlyBirdCameo for the HMP Droid Gunship in ''Film/RevengeOfTheSith''; the HMP would replace the MAF in the sequel).

Added DiffLines:

* SonicStunner: Sonic blasters are the Geonosians' trademark weapon, and the Imperial Officer in the second game also gets one as his primary weapon. Due to firing sound waves rather than concentrated energy bolts, they tend to have larger projectiles with wider hitboxes but low damage, though in the second they deal considerably higher damage on a direct hit.

* [[BaseOnWheels Base On Legs]]: The AT-TE and AT-AT walkers are mobile spawn points. In the first, the walkers count as command posts for the purposes of automatic unit attrition and "capture all command posts to win", meaning the enemy had to not only capture all the fixed command posts but destroy the walkers in order to win. And the walkers respawn.

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Certain classes, several of which are a commander in some fashion, get a fancy gun, such as a Sonic Emitter pistol or a chain gun. Any hero will likely also count, including General Grievous, the Emperor, most Jedi, and Darth Vader.

* NighInvulnerability: Jedi Heroes in this gamee are impossible to kill by conventional means; they deflect any projectile (including ''rockets and grenades'') aimed directly for them, and instantly regenerate any damage they actually take. The only reliable ways to take care of them are to land a starfighter right on top of them (which requires very lucky timing on the players part), throwing them into a bottomless pit with an explosion (which only works on certain maps), or depleting the enemy's reinforcements below 20, at which point they automatically drop dead and don't respawn.
