Also, ion cannons continue to be the most overpowered and underutilized weapons in all of Star Wars. At least in the x-wing games, you had to deplete a ship’s shields before the cannons could disable it, but all the live action examples have them crippling a ship of any size with one or two shots, shields or not. Hell even after they disabled the shuttle Boba orders them to lower their shields, as if the ion shots went right through them.
Forget hyperspace ramming, fans should be asking why the rebels/resistance don’t just replace at least half of all laser cannons and turbolasers with ion.
