As I stated before, the Separatists would probably be aiding Mordor and prevent entry through the air. As for a fellowship, Boromir became corrupted within a few weeks and Aragorn was showing the first stages of temptation. Traveling by land would be much harder with a larger scale war and would take longer, allowing for a greater risk of corruption. However both of you brought up a great point, droids and people from outside Arda are possibly immune to the ring's effects. That would definitely increase the chances of the Republic's victory but it would still be tough trying to ferry the ring into Mordor as they would probably receive anti-aircraft guns from the Separatists and the darkness of Mordor would make navigation harder. But just like in the books, Sauron wouldn't expect team to try to destroy the ring. It's impossible to tell what exactly would transpire or how the Force and "magic" would affect each other. Maybe one day Christopher Tolkien and George Lucas will write a book about it.
