Capital Supremacy is a brand new game mode beginning on the open battlefield of a new Geonosis map, Pipeline Junction West, leading up to the close-quarters combat in Republic and Separatist capital ships.
The first phase of the battle will kick off on the ground with twenty players on both sides with an additional twelve AI units fighting for each team. This is the largest ground-based battle phase in Star Wars Battlefront II.
"We wanted to add the additional AI so we could capture the scale of the clone wars while not diminishing your odds of playing iconic heroes." F8RGE writes on the Battlefront forum, "This is similar to how we use AI within the Starfighter Assault to add to the scale and the feeling of heroism as you cut through them."
The objective of this phase is to capture five command posts scattered around the new Geonosis map. The command posts start off as neutral and will change when your faction stays in its capture zone. Command posts can change hands multiple times and this will be a repetitive battle of attack and defend.
Holding the most command posts will grant your faction tickets. When you receive enough tickets, gunships related to your faction will land on the battlefield and you'll have a limited amount of time to get to the gunships that will take you to the second phase of the battle: the enemy capital ship.
Invading the enemy's capital ship is a player only battle. The AI units will remain planet-side while the player units battle it out in the ships above.
When your arrive on the enemy capital ship (either a Republic Venator-class star destroyer or CIS Providence-class cruiser), your team will have to eliminate multiple targets to destroy the ship. The Republics objective is to destroy the cooling vent chambers while the seperatists need to take out the cargo bay and reactor core chambers.
If the timer runs out or if the defenders wipe out enough of the attackers and deplete their reinforcement tickets, the battle returns to the ground phase and both sides must once again battle over the command posts.
Capital Supremacy is a Clone Wars-era exclusive and will, so far, only be available on its Geonosis Pipeline Junction West map. The playable heroes for this mode are also from the Clone Wars-era. Although some of the heroes didn't play a role in neither the first or second Battles of Geonosis, they were still notable figures in during Clone Wars.
