Information on the game:
-----------------------------------------
Star Wars: Battlefront II is a first-/third-person shooter set in the Star Wars universe, developed by Pandemic Studios and released by LucasArts on November 1, 2005 on numerous platforms. In this game, two belligerents (e.g. the Republic/Separatists or the Empire/Rebels) clash on a map and battle each other, with players mostly being common soldiers (e.g. battle droids, clones, or stormtroopers). For the first time in the Battlefront series, however, you could play as Jedi, Sith or other heroes and villains in addition to the usual soldier units. It also featured battles in space for the first time.

Battlefront II includes the following game modes:

• Conquest: Both sides must try to capture all of the enemy's command posts to win the game. From these command posts, new troops can be sent into battle. In addition, you must pay attention to the count of your reinforcements, because once it drops to zero, you lose the game.

• Assault: This game mode is similar to the Conquest mode, except that the battle takes place in space rather than on the surface. A team wins when it reaches its point goal that's shown in the top-center by shooting enemy vessels, doing severe damage to the enemy's capital ship from the outside or landing inside its hangar to destroy the vessel from the inside.

• XL: Both sides battle each other until the enemy's reinforcements drop to zero. In this mode, however, the number of units appearing on the map at any one time is greatly increased, hence the name "XL".

• Hunt: Instead of two normal armies made up of soldiers fighting each other, one side consists of the native species (e.g. the Gungans on Naboo or the Wampas on Hoth). The goal of this mode is to kill all enemy units until their reinforcements drop to zero.

• Capture the Flag (CTF): Either one or two flags are placed on the map and teams must collect them and bring them back to their base. Whoever has captured the most flags after a certain amount of time or has captured a specified number of flags first wins.

Information on the setting:
-------------------------------------------
"Malachor was a rocky, hellish wasteland planet located in the Chorlian sector of the galaxy's Outer Rim Territories region. It was a planet shrouded in mystery, and the location of an event known as the Great Scourge of Malachor, which took place thousands of years before the rise of the Empire. The Great Scourge was an ancient battle at Malachor's Sith temple between the Sith and the Jedi Order, which saw a superweapon activated, killing and petrifying all the participants of the battle, remaining for years after.

During the reign of the Galactic Empire, Jedi Master Yoda told Ezra Bridger, a Padawan, to find Malachor to help him defeat Darth Vader and the Inquisitors. Bridger, alongside Kanan Jarrus and Ahsoka Tano, traveled to Malachor, where they found the former Sith Lord Maul in exile. Together, they killed three Inquisitors, but Maul blinded Jarrus and escaped, consumed by revenge against the Jedi as well as his Sith Master, Darth Sidious. In the chaos, the Malachor superweapon was nearly re-activated before being destroyed, and while Bridger and Jarrus also fled Malachor, Tano narrowly survived her duel with Vader; years later, Bridger reached through the fabric of space-time to save Tano from Vader's clutches during the duel. With Tano spirited away, Vader departed with his armor scarred by battle, and Tano later returned to the duel's aftermath in order to continued her journey under Malachor's surface with the guidance of Morai."
