==Gameplay== [[Image:StarWarsForceCommander gameplay.png|thumb|left|''Force Commander'' is the first ''Star Wars'' strategy game to be rendered fully in 3D. Previous games used [[Sprite (computer graphics)|sprites]] and textured backgrounds.|alt=The top two-thirds of the screen depicts gameplay of Imperial walkers and other vehicles moving across an icy surface. The bottom third of the screen features a map and various player controls.]] ''Star Wars: Force Commander'' is a [[real-time strategy video game]]. The player commands forces as though they are the commander rather than an infantry unit. The game utilizes a birds-eye view around a 3D map. The levels are largely plot-focused, with initial levels playing as the Imperial faction against the Rebellion, whilst as the plot progresses and the character defects to the Rebellion, players then fight against the Imperials. Levels are ground assault based, as the game lacks space combat. Outsides of the main story-mode Campaign, scenarios can be re-played under the Scenario option, and players can set up their own battles in the Skirmish mode where up to four sides can compete against one another, though they only have the faction choice of Imperials or the Rebellion. The game has multiple networked multiplayer options. Up to six players can join together, and [[Local area network]] (LAN) and [[TCP/IP]] connections are supported. The game was supported by the defunct [[MSN Games|Microsoft Gaming Zone]].<ref name="cgsp review">{{Cite web |last=McElveen |first=Nick |date=April 19, 2000 |url=http://www.cdmag.com/articles/027/100/forcec_review.html |title=Star Wars: Force Commander |website=[[Computer Games Magazine|Computer Games Strategy Plus]] |publisher=Strategy Plus, Inc. |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030530121638/http://www.cdmag.com/articles/027/100/forcec_review.html |archive-date=May 30, 2003 |url-status=dead |access-date=April 10, 2017}}</ref><ref name="cgw review">{{Cite magazine |last=Clarkson |first=Mark |url=https://www.cgwmuseum.org/galleries/issues/cgw_191.pdf |title=Forced Commander (''Star Wars: Force Commander'' Review) |magazine=[[Computer Gaming World]] |publisher=Ziff Davis |issue=191 |date=June 2000 |pages=100β1 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010211205904/http://www.zdnet.com/cgw/stories/main/0,11529,2559427,00.html |archive-date=February 11, 2001 |url-status=live |access-date=June 24, 2021}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Donowitz |first=Leo |date=April 18, 2000 |url=http://www.game-over.com/review/april2000/force/index.html |title=Star Wars: Force Commander |website=GameOver |access-date=April 10, 2017}}</ref> LAN gameplay is limited to two players.
