why could the rebels not use the Ion cannon against the walkers?

>>81610016
They only had one and the rebels needed to focus it 100% on helping the evacuating rebels escape.

>>81610016
Takes too long to charge up. It had to be one or the other, and the destroyers took priority.

>>81610016
it's a miniature death star.
it's showing how the two sides in the conflict have switched tactics, with the rebels being more "empire" like, and vader employing bounty hunters and doing his own thing to great success.
This coincides with Luke Skywalker losing faith in the rebellion and going on his own journey to find his faith again.

Can't rotate it to aim at ground targets. Also, an entire crew gets cancer per shot

>>81610016

these were meant to disable star destroyer which are called that for a reason, the explosion would have probably been too large on the ground which not only would have meant friendly casualties amongst the ships, the base would have had to deal with much stronger quakes.

Plus it doesn't seem like they can aim at the ground, irl is why you don't use anti-air missiles to attack a submarine.

Looks like a titty lmao

What if the rebel base in Hoth was built on a giant female android buried in the snow?

>>81610047
Then it was an odd choice to build it with a cliff at its back hugely narrowing its firing arc

It's really not worth it to find logic in the Star Wars universe.

>>81610016
Are you seriously expecting Star Wars to be in any way logically consistent?
