This article has a talk page!Star Wars: Republic Commando is a first-person squad-based tactical shooter game. Think Rainbow Six with a Star Wars lick of paint. Taking place between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith (and it tying into Episode III was even a selling point on the box), you play as RC-1138 (AKA "Boss") the leader of Delta Squad, a specially-augmented clone commando team.
It's notable for featuring absolutely no Force trickery or Lightsaber action of any kind, instead being a down-and-dirty story about the troops.

Unused Areas#
1138 Map#
Found inside the maps folder, this map can be loaded via open 1138 console command.
This map was used as showcase and level select during game events. It features unused graphics and early development texts.
Interestingly for the game's time period, a lot of the placeholder images show the roundel symbol of the Galactic Empire (shown by the swolen edges on the spokes and lines connecting them to the outer ring) rather than the eight- or six-pronged Galactic Republic sigil.
Other Missing Maps#
Each campaign map starts with three letters followed by numeric indexing, however certain indexes are skipped and nowhere to be found.
The Geonosian campaign lacks geo_02 maps, the point between killing Sun Fac and destroying the jamming device of the droid foundry. geo_03b is also missing, a segment which would have taken place between destroying the jamming device and advancing to the foundry.
