Hear Me Out: Let's Take Out the Real Threat

I'm feeling pretty good about the K-16 Bryar with a Sharpshooter Trait Card being able to take out the real threat on Endor? Maybe the AT-AT is a diversion.

Have Gamorreans always been able to capture command posts in Battlefront 1?

For context: I'm playing the Nintendo Switch version of the Classic Collection port. (I don't have any good equipment to play the game on Steam, nor can I find my old PS2 copy or the PS2 itself--not that it would've made a difference since BF1 Jabba's Palace wasn't on PS2.)

I'm much more familiar with BF2 (and find that game more enjoyable to play than 1), so when returning to 1 for old time's sake, I sort of expected the Gamorreans in Jabba's Palace to act identically to how they do in 2; namely, they're hostile to both sides, spawn independently of command posts, try to kill anything that moves, and are tough to kill in return. As far as I can tell, all of that is still true in the first game, but I was shocked to see earlier in the match that the Gamorreans actually managed to capture the prison command post. It wasn't difficult at all to take back, but it still flabbergasted me.

When another opportunity presented itself near the end of the match, I knew I had to stand by and get a clip of the post going from green to yellow. I have to ask: Is this just another quirk of the Classic Collection, or was this already a thing in prior releases? Nearly 20 years I've known this game, and I had no idea this was ever possible...
