Details Unit Classes Tusken Raider Tusken Hunter Affiliation Tusken Raiders Home Planet Tatooine

The Tusken Raiders (more commonly known as Sand People) are NPC faction in Star Wars: Battlefront and are playable only in Hunt mode on Tatooine: Mos Eisley in Star Wars: Battlefront II. In Battlefront I, they shoot everyone that comes near them, and have unlimited troops. They can be eliminated from the battle on the Tatooine: Dune Sea by taking both of their bases (The Cisterns and the Tusken Camp) They are not stupid enough to attack ships such as the AAT's, but they are constantly killed by the Sarlacc. In Battlefront II, you can be the Tusken Raiders in hunt mode, and you must kill the Jawas (Who are armed with arc caster like guns). It should be noted that winning as a Tusken is rather challenging. Both variants of Tusken Raiders have blasters that fire green projectiles.

Basic Info
Type:	Soldier
Affiliation:	Tusken Raiders
Unit Details
Weapons:	Tusken Cycler

Nothing worse than having a Tusken Raider swarm the area, and lay down suppressive fire with a Tusken Cycler especially when your low on health. In SWBFI they spawn have infinite reinforcements as long as they can keep a Command Post, if they cannot then they are wiped out from the map(Tatooine: Dune Sea) In SWBFII they are in hunt mode, and tend to lose to the Jawa's. Even though in reality Jawa's are hunted by Tusken Raiders so its interesting that they lose.

Units

There are two types of Tuskens Raiders: The Tusken Raider (or the Tusken Chieftain), and the Tusken Hunter. The Tusken Raider has a Tusken Cycler, a gun like a blaster rifle but much slower. Tusken Raiders are units only available in star wars battlefront I first mission on Tatooine, they add the rebel troops, and they're also seen on battlefront II hunt Mode on Mois Eisley. These raiders are armed with a Tusken Cycler but nothing else. The raiders work especially well in squads. The Tusken Hunter is armed with a Beam Rifle. The Tusken Hunter is only available in Battlefront II Hunt mode. The hunter carries a beam rifle. Hunters can make good medium-range snipers.
