The battle is divided into three sections. Y run 1, 2 and 3. At the beginning the empire forces fight uphill. The objective close to the bunker is easier to hold for the rebels while the far one offers too much exposure and should be focused on second. When the second phase starts, the ground is a bit more even, but rebels spawn inside the base allowing you to hold the inner objective easily but making the outer one harder to get to. Also the hangar is a real choke point. The rebels can hang at the back of the room, but at this point when the empire starts to spawn around it, grenades lobbed into the hangar make short work of them. This is, imo, the most balanced part of the fight. When the battle moves past to the third section, the empire has a distinct tactical advantage due to the fact that A) they are coming [i]down[/i] the hill, and B) the ATAT's have full, unguarded access to both objectives until the end of the round. Part 1 advantage-rebels Part 2 advantage- equal(dependent on skill/map knowledge/number of players playing to objectives) Part 3 advantage- empire. It is balanced, just not equally for the whole duration of the battle. The rebels should really push their advantage at the beginning and get as many Y wings into the air as they can, and then in the second round do what they can to hold the hangar, and finally in the third round play conservatively and stay low. My biggest problem is finding players who actually go after objectives. The game is complete chaos, with between 3 and 5 people per team actually playing the game mode. If you played a game with 2 teams of twenty people actually [i]playing[/i] the objectives, the battle would unfold very differently. I see the potential, but everyone plays like racking up the most kills will win them the match. CoD kids.
