K, i am working on a map, and this is SUCH a controversial issue..., but i gave the rebels on GCW era both spider walkers and MAF gunships. Everyone i told about it or showed the draft map got all mad and said the evil CIS would never give aid to the Rebel Alliance....

My thought is that the remnants of the CIS would gladly give aid and join the Rebels cus they hate the same guys. I mean "Sepratists" fighting Jango clones under Palapatine's Republican government on Corusant, and "Rebels" (both somewhat similar terms) fighting mostly Jango clones under Palapatine's Empirial Government on Corusant. I mean come on, they're basicly the same, just one has more money and is comprised mostly of driods, and the other has a few jedi and is comprised predominatly of humaniods.

Anyways just wanted some extra opinion on the subject matter....

Does it really matter? You're the map maker, and have free will to do what you want to do. If you want to give the Rebs CIS vehicles, then go ahead and do so.

If you want to use the vehicles, do it. The CIS was destroyed. Why not explain the rebels recovered abandoned equipment and adapted it to their cause?

Following the signing of the Corellian Treaty and the Declaration of Rebellion in 2 BBY, most Separatists holdouts that had survived 17 years after the Clone Wars' end, were absorbed into the Rebel Alliance. The Rebels managed to get their hands on Separatist war matériel, such as Lucrehulk-class battleships, Recusant-class light destroyer, Providence-class carrier/destroyers and Munificent-class star frigates. Many surviving frigates had roamed the galaxy for years, with their old crews serving as mercenaries or pirates. They modified their vessels to such an extent that many were unrecognizable from their original configuration. As such, they went well with the rag-tag look of the early Alliance Fleet.[8]

But even if they hadn't, like Ping said its still your map. ;)
