KDY-150
KDY-150 is a planetary defense facility in Star Wars: Rebellion, available to both sides. It is a system-based ion cannon (the KDY v-150) that fires on ships bombarding the system where it is deployed. Like all ion cannons it inflicts no physical damage, instead draining a target's energy so its shields drop and it cannot fire its weapons. This is particularly handy for getting units past an enemy blockade.[1]
In the game
It costs 4 refined materials to build and 4 to maintain.[1] The infobox values come from the game data.[2]
The manual describes it as an ion cannon that drains energy from an attacking ship, so the ship's shields stop working and it cannot fire.[3] Having one on a system makes it easier for troops, characters and special forces to escape a blockade or bombardment.[4]
