Your role in this game is to work for the empire to preserve peace and order - it is not limited to fighting the Rebels and Luke Skywalker. Missions include search/destroy, capture, rescue and defend missions. The missions have stated and secret objectives. Your opponents include the Rebels, two races at war with each other, pirates and traitorous Imperial forces. After completing a tour of duty, you are able to complete missions one more time, just for fun or to increase your score (but these scores won't count to the "storyline" total).

There are a number of different ships you get to fly (fighters from the movies and new ones created for the game), and you would have to get use to their abilities and limitations pretty
quickly. To help you out, there are training missions available for each class of ship you will use. Your targets include fighters, convoy ships, medium and large capital ships of the Rebel and Imperial fleets.
I enjoyed being the "bad guy" in this game, but you never felt that way as the game's atmosphere created a sympathetic role for you. Ok, picking off retreating Rebel's might have made me feel a bit like a bad guy, but trust me - they deserved it.
It’s really cool game with good graphics and sound. So try it. You won’t be disappointed.
