  This map felt like a total warzone when I played this game as an 8 year old lol

  You can blow up the techno union ships which does remove those spawn points. Winning organically is much easier then.

  The hardest and most broken map isn't Spire, it's Kashyyyk Islands.

  Imo, Kashyyyk Islands as the Empire on hard is even more difficult, as there is no cheese option available. It's all about getting enough command posts to bleed the Rebel reinforcements, which is easier said than done!

  I remember beating it years ago by sticking in a gunship and loading all the slots up with bots. I had over 140 eliminations! I Will never forget how fun it was and still is to play

  Taking a ship full of clones to the Techno Union ships is the best way to win for sure

  Playing it modded with 2500 tickets and massive 100 vs 100 battles makes it play way more like the movies but also makes it more balanced. The strat to rush the techno union ships makes more sense. I always rush at them with the walker or gunships and just hose down whatever comes out of the spire. Always ignore the native spawns since they don't stop and don't count anyway.

  My uncles and I struggled with this map on the campaign. One day I was over and I was playing the game and I fell asleep mid game and somehow the clones pulled through and won and my uncles came home and were flabbergasted that I had just won without even playing. Never let them forget it too

  Thanks for the analysis! &nbsp;I personally respect the patience behind the LAAT strat! :)<br>My recommendation is always to go after the Techno Union ships first with the AT-TE, because you will never get the bleed mechanic to help you out if you don&apos;t, then work your way back through the Spire. &nbsp;The map is definitely not the hardest in this game though. &nbsp;Yavin Temple as Republic and Kashyyyk Islands as Empire are way harder to win.<br><br>Also, there&apos;s only 3 droidekas max (possibly 4 if 2 spawn at the same time). &nbsp;The missions have unit caps on the AI even if they don&apos;t display them. &nbsp;It feels like more but it isn&apos;t.

  I&apos;ve always felt that the clones in this game are at a huge disadvantage because of the Droidekas; plus, the fact that the clone engineer class doesn&apos;t have a good weapon doesn&apos;t help either—it&apos;s like the clones are already up against it, and then you have a class that basically just spawns on the map to die.

  This game and Battlefront II were my childhood. Probably got thousands of hours into these games. Never stopped playing them. Glad to see other people are still enjoying it as well.

  Biggest issue on this map is two of the four initial spawns for the clones are the ATTEs. As soon as the walkers march closer to the frontline at the derelict they come under sustained rocket fire from AT droids, wrist rockets, and the hailfire tanks. All the splash damage from those rockets usually kill clones who spawned recently under the ATTE, adding quite a large unavoidable ticket drain early on, that continues until the end of the match whenever the ATTEs are spawned and moving.
