| Jan 8, 2016 at 23:33 | comment | added | Xantec | @Moo True enough. And if that is the case then "If so, on what?" would be answered with something along the lines of "On points L2 and L3." | |
| Jan 8, 2016 at 23:28 | comment | added | Moo | @xantec not a real physical target you dont, just point it at five or six known coordinates of space around Endor and see if your beam passes through that point when fired. You dont need a physical target to calibrate the targeting system. | |
| Jan 8, 2016 at 23:19 | comment | added | Xantec | @Moo But you do need a target to ensure that the targeting is working. Otherwise the DS2 could've missed the rebel fleet and potentially destroyed one of their own ships. | |
| Jan 8, 2016 at 23:04 | comment | added | Moo | You dont really need a target to measure stuff like energy output, beam confinement, directional targeting etc. If the beam is properly calibrated, the fact that its going to hurt what it hits is a fore gone conclusion :) | |
| Jan 8, 2016 at 22:00 | comment | added | Xantec | It sure would have been embarrassing had the emperor told the crew to fire and nothing happened. However, it may have been more effective at getting Luke to get in touch with feelings, even if he was feeling amusement instead of anger. | |
