18 BBY/2IY: Supreme commander of the Imperial Fleet, Lord Vader ordered the execution of Queen Apailana of Naboo on the charges of committing treason against the empire by harboring fugitive . The 501st was sent to eliminate her but the battle became a disaster the empire for a number of unexpected setbacks: On the land the 501st was shocked to see that the defenders of Naboo was leaded by their former brethren's from the from the famed Torrent company, the most veteran company of the 501st under the command of the traitors captain CT-7567 "Rex", the former second-in-command under Lord Vader. Under his command the Naboo defenders put up a deadly resistance and then lunched an even more deadly counterattack that drove them from the planet. In the bloody engagement, the 501st lost an entire battalion, entirely composed of veteran troops from the clone wars and Operation: Knightfall.
The Self-Aware Gun Emplacement or SAGE is the Consortium's all around weapon when it comes to taking care of relatively weaker threat. An impressive engineering marvel the SAGE is equipped with a above average droid brain and an excellent sensor suite. This combination operates a lethal pair of rapid firing twin mass drivers that can make short work on light infantry, armor and aircraft with its overwhelming barrages of super-headed metal shards. Against medium armor it can only hold its own for short time and heavy units would barely have a starch. Making this unit a true jack of all trades yet master of none. However, it's relatively cheap price and short construction time make is quite useful for delaying actions and protecting less important planets.
Here's the thing: I have no idea what I should call it, anyone wish to land a hand?
besides the shredder? lol
The Watchman, Extortioner Emplacement, Hydra Cannon, Cerberus Turret, Rapture Emplacement, APDE (All-Purpose-Defense-Emplacement).....and um...Oh the Cheese Grader...yeah that's a good one.
I like the Cerebus Idea
Just call it the "Pew-Pew Gun"! XD
A "Desilijic" light turret; named after Jabba the Hutt's family; a judicious insult to Tyber Zahn's rival.
A "Conciliator" light turret.
A shard cannon.
The "Cannock" light turret.
The "Peacemaker."
I kinda like the "Desilijc"
According to some SW books, the clan name of the Hutts was supposedly only known to the clan family itself; thus for Zahn to name a turret after the family name of Jabba the Hutt, and thereby flaunting that which is dear to the Hutts, does seem like something that he would do; its deliciously malignant.
