Gungans are the fish-like creatures residing in the waters of
Naboo (in
Naboo: Plains [as an ally to the Republic and Rebels] and a playable faction in
Battlefront 2 Naboo: Theed during
Hunt only). They have long lived in ignorant harmony with the planet's human inhabitants. One of their strange species members, Jar Jar Binks, plays a decently large role in the films, and is eventually named a General. Gungans carry balls of electricity (
Thermal Detonators but closely resemble EMP grenades) to take out droids, and also have
Fusion Cutters to repair
Health and
Ammo droids, as well as
Turrets. It is different, yet strangely fun playing as these weird, primitive creatures. When the Gungans face off against the
Super Battle Droids of the CIS in
Naboo: Theed Hunt mode, their
Thermal Detonators come in handy, and the fusion cutters are useful for constructing
Laser Turrets for your fellow Gungans to use. However, they rarely win on
Battlefront II. The Gungan appears in
Star Wars Battlefront II in only one level, which is in Hunt mode on Naboo. Their main weapon is a Booma, which is a small plasma orb. They use them to hurl at the enemy. They also carry a fusion cutter for repairing. Gungans are an easy enemy to kill as they only take a few shots from a blaster rifle to take down.
