Tatooine

- "This large open desert area is quite typical of Tattooine, along with giant cliffs and dropoffs in many areas."

Tatooine, as many have seen in the movies, is a relatively large desert planet with enemies such as Tusken Raiders and the dreaded Krayt Dragon. Here you'll find a wealth of culture and will be treated to numerous locations that look familiar, if you are at all familiar with the Star Wars universe.

Environment

While there are some rocky cliffs, the landscape of Tatooine is essentially one giant desert. As a result, the creatures and structures do more to resemble this than anything else, and cover from enemies will be minimal.

Major Cities

Wayfar

Wayfar is in the extreme southwestern portion of Tatooine, and is one of the least-populated cities in the area, as few people go too close to it. As a result, you will often have a hard time finding an entertainer or medic in the town when you need one. That said, however, Jabba's palace and a prominent Tusken Raider camp are both right outside of Wayfar, so there is quite a bit of action in the area, if little commerce or services.

Bestine

No doubt about it, there is an exceptionally strong Imperial presence in Bestine. In fact, if you have any desire to join the Imperials, then swinging by Bestine should be one of the first places you go. Heck, there's even an imperial station just outside the center of the crescent shape of the city. Beyond its imperial presence, however, Bestine is also quite a large city, so much so that it even has two Cantinas. Not only that, but the creatures of the desert rarely come too close to the borders of Bestine, as they do with the smaller cities such as Wayfar.

Anchorhead

Even smaller than Wayfar, Anchorhead is a small city with relatively few buildings and services. Here you will find only a small shuttle port, cloning facility, and vendor. The local tavern doubles as a Cantina and Medical Center. Hope you like whisky as your painkiller instead of morphine. On the up side, Anchorhead has a strong Rebel presence, and you will easily be able to get connected here. Just be careful though, as Imperials raid this area often.

Mos Espa

Mos Espa is a relatively large, neutral, full-service city in the northwestern end of Tatooine. Overall, if it is on Tatooine, and you need it, then you will be able to find it here. Just be careful when roaming the city; while creeps generally do keep out of it, the southern quarter tends to have a Squill infestation problem, and they can wipe out entire player groups if you're not careful.

Mos Entha

Mos Entha is another one of the larger cities on Tatooine, and like Mos Espa, it is largely neutral with very little Imperial or Rebel presence to be felt. What it does have, however, is a relatively large criminal district where, once you are able to handle them, you can gain quite a bit of experience while staying in town. Just don't go to Mos Entha and assume that it will be populated, however, as you will often not find that many players in Mos Entha.

Mos Taike

Mos Taike is little more than a small waystation for those travelers heading toward the Krayt graveyard, or just going to the northwest portion of Tatooine. It has a little bit of a criminal and Imperial presence, but not much else.

Facilities

Cloning Facility, Tavern

Basic Trainers

None

Mos Eisley

Mos Eisley is a den of criminals with a slight Imperial presence that is just enough to keep the place from delving into anarchy. That said, this is also often the most populated city on the planet and is packed full of services. Instead of having to look around for entertainers, like in other cities, you are likely to find hordes of them in Mos Eisley. You will also likely be able to find all the medics you could need and trainers for almost everything under the sun. Enjoy!
