Here's the beginnings of a little wiki on the Legion. 
[spoiler]
Story of 271st Legion:
This legion was one of many that participated in the Battle of Geonosis. Following the battle, it was intended that the legion be tasked with the standard duties of any other legion: fighting the CIS and helping to secure planets and eventually victory for the Republic. Instead, following many Mandalorian Protectors siding with the CIS, this legion was specifically tasked with suppressing Mandalorian forces to prevent any major Mandalorian force to assist the CIS war effort in key systems. The 271st did well, yet they lost many, as other legions sent to support them in their fight did. Following the elimination of Mandalorian Protector forces on Norval II, the legion was reorganized into legions that would later become parts of the Empire's deadly stormtrooper forces, however, an unusually symmetrical number of clones, equivalent to that of the legion's original name, left for the Outer Rim against Imperial Orders and were never heard of since.
Commander Sirius
Initially, Commander Sirius was a simple sergeant in the Clone Army during the Battle of Geonosis. However, he quickly rose up through the ranks following the battle and attained the rank of Commander of the 271st in the fight against the Mandalorian Protectors of the CIS. Unlike other legion commanders, Sirius received modified prototype Phase II Paratrooper armor. He added unto this armor a JT-12 jetpack and ammo bandoilers. He was famed for his fight against the Mandalorians. When Order 66 was issued, Commander Sirius assisted in the killing of Jedi General Tyro-tai (t-Iro-thai). Afterwards, he and many of the 271st began to feel more independent and guilty for their participation in Order 66. In 17 BBY, Sirius and 270 soldiers (making 271 total) of the legion hijacked an Acclamator Class Star Cruiser and departed in the Outer Rim. No further information is available at this time, stardate 40 ABY.

Commander Sirius
HRC Trooper
The Heavy Recon Commando Trooper, or HRC Trooper, was one of many legion specific units of the 271st during the Clone Wars. They were normally armed with a DC-15X Sniper Rifle, PLX-1 Missile Launcher, Thermal Detonators, one Recon Droid, and one of the following: DC-17 Pistol, DC-15S Carbine, or Sawed Off DC-15X Blaster Modification.

The Heavy Recon Commando Class (HRC) Phase I

Phase II HRC Trooper
Phase II 271st Legion Jet Trooper
As new armor and equipment began to flow in to bolster the arsenal of the 271st legion, it was found that while enough key supplies and new armor made it through Mandalorian blockades, no jet-trooper specific armor or new model jet-packs did. To compensate, a respirator was added to Phase II Armor for Jet Trooper soldiers as well as a modified JT-12 Jetpack. Near the end of the Clone Wars in 19 BBY, these modifications had become commonplace within the legion, and no Phase II equipment of the type was ever used as an upgrade.

Phase II Jet Trooper (271st)
Phase I and II 271st Legion Combat Engineer
Due to the extreme conditions of many of the planets on which the legion fought upon, it was decided by the Republic Military Board to equip the soldiers of the legion with modified armor, similar to the later AT-RT driver armor. The helmet was modified with high-resolution visors, as well as an inbuilt respirator. The armor was similar to that of a standard clone, yet modified to withstand more extreme conditions. Later in the Clone Wars, the Phase 2 troopers of the legion recieved AT-RT Driver armor as their main battle armor.

Combat Engineer
Captain Nades

Captain Nades of the 271st Legion of the Grand Army of the Republic earned his title through his professional usage of a variety of grenades and detonators. He favored the usage of explosive weapons and carried some form of destructive equipment at all times. His weapon layout normally consisted of a DC-15S Blaster Carbine, a Rocket Launcher, an EMP Launcher, Thermal Detonators, and Concussion Grenades, though on some missions he carried timebombs, detpacks, or explosive mines. His armor was similar to that of 501st Clone Captain CT-7567, known as Rex. For lack of a better term, this armor has been titled "Phase 1.5" Clone Trooper Armor. Captain Nades was one of the many Clone Troopers of the legion that left into the Outer Rim under the orders of Commander Sirius.

Core.lvl loc may not show up
Crashes
Tank does not work properly in new version
Hope you enjoy my mod! 
Screens are on my steam account[/spoiler]
2.0 Crashes on several of the stock maps. It is known to work on Bespin Platforms, Mustafar Refinery, Mygeeto, and a few other custom maps. I believe it works on Tatooine Mos Eisley.

Also, where can I find the TX-131 Tank here? http://www.gametoast.com/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=23642
Thanks 

I am considering making this into a third era.

Please Report Any Bugs you find as well as give any ideas for improvements. Thanks!

Media fire link from that post: http://www.mediafire.com/download/rc6cf1amg2cmnbc/TX_Tank.zip

File front is constantly down.. I've never hosted anywhere but; Here (SWBFgamers), my own personal google site, my website, and speedyshare.com.
I strongly suggest you never host anything on filefront/gamefront. They're bad news.

I'll try and find some time to test out the mod, sounds promissing, even for a first go!

[ETW_Modder]

Thanks  I'll be updating this mod soon.

[Led]

You are welcome to upload your mods here--just PM me and I will make sure they get approved.

[{TCE}Call-of-Duty]

Wow icemember sure has a lot of models on there... any-who im downloading the mod now and I'll see how it goes (emoticon for crossing fingers), edit this post in a sec

EDIT: I loaded it on platforms, took a min to load but when it did, it was very fun, the only bug I saw was the ARC and the sniper class were switched around which that shouldn't take long to fix though

[ETW_Modder]

@Buckler: Thanks, I'll do so when I update this a bit.

@{TCE}Call-of-Reindeer: Do you mean that the ARC and Sniper names were switched, or their positions in the spawn list? The names should work on stock maps if you used the core.lvl I gave.

EDIT: I updated the mod and previous post. If you notice anything in the mod that is from your asset or work, just let me know. Also report any bugs that have not been already noted in the first post.

This mod is my first mod, and more of an experiment and training for me. It is actually part of a larger mod I am making which involves Mandalorians, hence the thanks for Mandalorian models from Icemember. I will soon release the Mandalorians, then I will move on to my KotOR sides project.  [/spoiler]

I tried the new Republic side link and it directed me to it, so I do not know what is wrong.

EDIT: I just updated the rep.lvl link. I added overheats to some of the weapons, edited some of their stats, and attempted to fix some minor bugs. Although, the Republic Fighter Tank is still somewhat bugged. Also, if anyone wants to reupload any of these files to swbfgamers, they have my permission.
EDIT2: I just discovered a few bugs. I will fix them. Until then, do not download the mod.
EDIT3: Ok, I fixed the overheat bugs. It should now work properly. Please report any bugs or difficulty with the download. There is also a link to a screenshot gallery and a download from this website.

[ETW_Modder]

I am currently debating who to use as the hero for the 271st Legion. Currently I have Commander Sirius, with two possible models.

Here's one: And here's the other:

Which is better?

In other news, I have finished the Mandalorian Heavy Assault Class and his weapons. For some reason the skin I'm trying to use for the Engineer and this Republic Speeder http://secretsociety.com/forum/downloads/Psych0%20Projects/BetaVehicles/AttackSpeederLight/ cause the game to crash. :/

[RepComm]

I recommend the first one (left)

[Snake]

Cool mod! Did you make these skins? I think the second one looks cooler.

[ETW_Modder]

Thank you for your compliment Snake  , and yes I did skin them, but the second one was based off of Deviss's Commander Cody located here http://download1655.mediafire.com/f1d111lecuwg/68eptly4e93ytp1/DEV+HD+ep2+Cody.rar. Anyways, @RepublicCommando I think that I'll try and use both and have the first one used on Yavin and Kashykk, unless there is some sort of randomizer function available. Is it possible to make a blue command post in SWBF1?

[Snake]

I'm pretty sure it is, though I've never tried. I will give it a go for the Museum and get back to you on exactly how to do it.

------

Yeah, here's the part that deals with the color:

Color             = "0 0 0"
NeutralColor      = "255 255 255"
FriendlyColor       = "30 220 30"
EnemyColor          = "240 30 30"
LocalsColor       = "240 220 30"

However, I think you will have to copy, paste, and rename the odf for com_bldg_controlzone and com_holo_controlzone because, if I remember correctly, editing things in the common folder does nothing. The stuff for color is in com_holo_controlzone but you need to change the reference in com_bldg_controlzone because it references com_holo_controlzone. So make sure you change it to reference whatever you renamed the holo file to.

To change it to blue use this: 92 136 250 for the friendly color.

A. It isn't showing up 
B. My modded common.lvl has caused some weird bugs in my game. Is there somewhere I could get a stock one?

You could try and do the same thing to the common.lvl with the Common.lvl builder found in a one of Phobos' excellent toolboxes, they work great for me and I think I've changed the CP flare color with them.. (Or I was dreaming )
