Galactic Empire
The heavies in the original trilogy of Star Wars films, the Galactic Empire is just as fierce in Galactic Battlegrounds. They have legions of stormtroopers and Sith Knights at their disposal, and their attack vehicles include TIE fighters, TIE bombers, and the mighty, 4-legged AT-AT walkers. Their spaceships are not as heavily armored as those belonging to other factions, so they tend to excel with ground assaults.

Trade Federation
Like the Galactic Empire, the Trade Federation, who were the heavies in Star Wars: Episode I: The Phantom Menace, have strong ground assault capabilities but weak spaceships. While their tall, thin droids arent very sophisticated, they pack a powerful punch when they swarm an opponent. They also have access to Sith Knights.

Gungans
The Gungans thrive underwater and their unique unit, the Fambaa shield generator, provides mobile defenses that offer greater protection for their ground troops than whats available to other factions. Their air attacks are weak, though, and their Jedi Knights are not very powerful.

Unique technologies: Creature Training; Creature Armor; Farseeing Binoculars; Faster Growth Chambers
Unique unit: Fambaa shield generator
Rebel Alliance
The Rebel Alliance has superior air power, as shown with their unique unit, the airspeeder, and strong troops, but their assault technology is weak. They trail only the Galactic Empire and the Royal Naboo in their strength with Jedi, however.
Bonus: Farm droids can carry 5% more
Unique technologies: Tougher Armor
Unique unit: Airspeeder
Wookiees
The favorites of many fans because of Chewbacca, the Wookiees are another faction thats very strong in the air and on the ground, although their Jedi Knights are weak compared to the Rebels, the Empire, and the Royal Naboo.
Bonus: In tech level 3, carbon collection is 5% faster
Unique technologies: Self Regeneration; Jetpacks; Forest Vision; Wookiee Ingenuity
