The CIS is also referred to as the Separatist Movement, lead by the idealistic and corrupted Count Dooku. They are a group of rich and corrupt clans dedicated to bringing power and reform against the peaceful Republic. Little do they know that they are merely pawns in the evil plans of Darth Sidious. The Separatist army is composed of a variety of Battle Droids and militaristic races. The CIS was doomed from the very beginning, but that doesn't mean they don't know how to wage war.
The Primary Infantry of the CIS is the skeleton-like Battle Droid and the blue armored Super Battle Droid. The original Battle Droids are playable in the Historical Campaign Mode only, but they do work in other roles later on.
In Historical Campaign Mode you get to play as a standard Battle Droid. They are cheap and easy to build combat ready droids incapable of independent thought. (Except you) They are the staple troopers of the Trade Federation and the CIS, but they are latter replaced with the superior Super Battle Droid.
Equipment and Attributes:
Blaster Rifle: A standard repeating blaster rifle that is good for many purposes. When not in combat, the rifle is stored on the control pack.
Blaster Pistol: a simple Pistol with infinite ammo.
Thermal Detonator: A high-explosive grenade that is good against Infantry and light vehicles.
(I'm not sure if they are equipped with a concussion grenade, but if they are then it would be the same as the other concussion grenades.)
The Super Battle Droid is the mass produced replacement to the weaker battle droid, but it isn't designed with multitasking abilities like the standard Battle Droid. All the weapons are wrist mounted, and I consider it probably the single best infantry in the game. (I might be wrong, but thats my opinion.)
Equipment and Attributes:
Wrist Blaster: A repeating blaster built into the arm, and works like other infantry Blaster Rifles.
Tri-Shot: A unique shotgun like wrist blaster that fires three shots at once. It has infinite ammo.
Concussion Missile: A light anti-personnel missile that replaces grenades. It isn't homing and explodes on contact. Fired from the left wrist.
