Actually, it might have been planned to reduce the supply of cloned stormies. I've always wondered about that, and it makes sense. Still, once would have been good, but every planet?Some designer at Pandemic isn't going to think like that though. I guarantee they said, "Hey, you know what would be cool? Let's make stormtroopers and clone troopers fight! And let's throw Fett in the middle of it for good measure. We'll make LFL come up with a reason later."

Well I believe the Legacy of the Force series runs with that as Boba Fett returns to Kamino, if I remember correctly. The planet is mostly abandoned (As a result of lost trade with the Empire?), and I think somewhat war-torn.Okay, to be fair, I actually haven't played it, but the fact that their campaign is all over the timeline suggests retconning to me. You can't tell me Boba Fett and stormtroopers fighting clone troopers was added because it was plausible though .
I don't think it's a bad idea. I mean, the Kaminoans were responsible for the education and indoctrination of the Fett clones, so I think it's plausible tried to rebel against what the Empire was trying to do (i.e. Take over the galaxy and kill everyone for no reason and all that).

BF2 is a typical post-RotS game that uses locations from the film without any really good in-universe explanation as to why (I'm sure you're familiar with another game like that). It was probably heavily retconned to make any sense at all; you'd be appalled at what they did with vehicles, for example, so I doubt it's that coherent.

They actually gave some good reasons for being on the places they were on. Mustafar, kill a CIS leader that found a droid factory to make his own personal army. Kamino, a Republic-like clone army bred by the Kaminoans to fight the Empire. And so on.

I read the comic that appears in...I never saw any other modified Providence-class ships.
