So, it's been revealed that there will be four basic groups :

Rebel Alliance, Imperial Army, Clone Army and Droid Army

It's too early to get into specifics regarding class(pilot, base trooper). . .etc, but what basic group do you think you'll ally yourself with?

My sig, pretty much gives mine away.:D

Imperial all the way here. But to be successful you gotta switch up the classes for different situations. Like if you need heavy weapons to take out a turret be a pilot or heavy trooper, or if there are infantry far away but you know they're there be a scout and snipe them. I've been playing Galactic Conquest for a few days, it'll have to due for now until this game comes out.

My allegiance is with any group, I'll just fill in the gaps if the team numbers are unfair.

As for class, yeah I agree with XMajor, all depends on the situation. Mostly I will lend support to other players.

I don't think I'll have much of an allegiance...All of the armies sounds pretty cool to me. I want to experience all of them equally.

Long Live Empire! However in several occasions such as the hoths battle I will also take over Rebel side to fly the Speeder and tie AT-AT's legs it's gonna be a whole lot of fun. :)

As to the newer times I am going for the clones. I hate droids.

The Clone army!

But that doesn't mean that that will be the only side I'll play.

For the Rebellion I live, for the Rebellion I shalt die!

Second choice is Republic.

Of course only as long as it is balanced. I will also play Imperial and Droids somewhen surely just to try out, but as long as I can choose freely... see above. :D

My first choice would be Empire and second choice is Rebels. I can't wait to play as a Imperial Scout Trooper or a Imperial Officer. To ride a Imperial Speeder Bike through Endor.

I don't have much interest in that prequel stuff. Clones and droids are boring as hell. They're just mindless automatons. They don't even have any cool vehicles. If I buy Battlefront, I'll probably just stick with original trilogy maps.

Given the choice, I'd join the Rebels, but if the Imperials are badly outnumbered I'd join them too.

Rebels. Definately going to make use of guerilla tactics. However I see a problem that was confirmed by the recent poll at lucasarts.com. Noone is going to play federation. You see, Im a good guy, I play the good guys in all games because I like to defeat evil forces.

So I will play Rebels and Republic because they are the 'good guys'. The problem is all the people who plan to play mostly Imperial Forces, will switch to republic when on the respective maps because they want to be clones and not droids. Leaving a Majorly under strength side. Because you will have the people who play the 'good guys' all the time, plus the the people who hop from 'bad guys' because they like the clone troopers better.

I wanted to think I was just being silly at first, but the poll at la.com pretty much confirmed that I was right on.

^ Little nitpick: The Republics clone armies are not the good guys. They're just pawns in Palpatines plan to take control of the Republic. The clones were/will be at least partly responsible for exterminating the Jedi and installing Palpatine as the Emperor.

If you want to play "good guys" the Rebels are the only group that qualifies.

You forget the droideka. People are going to want to play as them. Besides, there's always an auto-blance thingie that'll balance things out.

Either the Rebels or the Republic...

Rebels because they have all the cool ships like the X-Wing and such, the Republic just because of all the clones, and let's just say after watching the episodes of "The Clone Wars" on Cartoon Network, it really did show how good the clones really are.:)

Im sure I will switch to federation on occasions just to play as a droideka. I was overjoyed when I found out they were in the game. Plus those federation tanks look pretty nasty:elephant:

Im definetly going republic. I fight for the good guys. At this point in the SW history the republic were the good guys. The average soldier had no idea about The conspiracy involving Darth Sidious.

My second choice are the imps, just cause I want to control an at-st.

I'm going for imperials all the way but will play as others. Also i believe any army can control any vehichle on the map so u don't have to be imps to pilot an at-st.:rolleyes:

Rebel Spy you mean.

Imperials and Federation all the way for me. Serve your Emperor it's the only right thing to do. I cannot support the Rebel terrorist scum.

i think it'd be damn hard to steal one of those, plus the imperial officer can spot rebel spies, and if the imperials are smart they'd put one of the officers on the walker or have them patrolling the lines in search for spies. IMO.

I must say this is a matter of opinon. In my humble opinion the rebels are evil for trying to destroy the great Empire. I guess you know where my allegiance lies then. :emperor:

My allegiances lays in the original trilogy so the rebel alliance and Galactic Empire. I have been sending e-mails and suggestions for the past two to three years to Lucasarts trying to get them to make a Star wars video game set during the original trilogy period for the playstation 2. Let's hope they don't cancel it like they did for Sam and Max 2 for PC, Full Throttle 2 for Playstation 2 and PC, and Galaxies: An Empire Divided for X-box and Playstation 2.

definitely going Imperial mostly, but like most everyone else i'll still enjoy playing as any of the other armies. but those imperial scout troopers are just so damn...cool.

Imperials!!! Storm troopers, and Dark troopers and every other trooper in between!!

2nd choice is Republic cuz I like the Gunship
3rd is Rebels for the higher accuracy :snip2:
and I doubt I'll use the Trade Federation, I dont like droids...... Well......Maybe if you can pilot the Droid Starfighter.....:bdroid2::snip2:

Depends on the situation for me, my mood, the map, how balanced the teams are etc.

But the first thing i'll do is try out every side and special class.
