Guide the Rebel Alliance to defend themselves against the invading Empire or lead the Trade Federation to conquer Naboo in this Star Wars real-time strategy built on Ensemble Studio's Age of Empires II game engine. Although the game's fundamentals and mechanics are similar to Ensemble's popular 1999 war game, LucasArts brings a new look and feel to the structure, with a fleshed-out single-player campaign and units, civilizations and settings taken directly from the games. Star Wars stories.
The player begins in an untamed land with a small number of worker units, then must guide the faction to develop thriving communities and eventually a powerful army to defend the kingdom and conquer those of their rivals. As in Age of Empires and most other real-time strategies, human and computer opponents begin under similar circumstances and players compete together to develop and expand their territories, keeping them defensible against invasion by others. As players gain control over more territory, they find new sources of raw materials, which in turn provide them with the means for further expansion and larger armies.
