LTL firepower

Now the TL page describes as much as 7 megatons for vaporizing a 100 meter long asteroid. This seems to be around the firepower of the Acclamator's light guns.


Are there larger figures?

It depends on the type of calcs made.
High end calcs can make LTL deliver gigaton range firepower perhaps more, altought i could be wrong.

I don't see why an ISD would carry light guns any larger than the Acclamator's. The mission is the same, there's no reason to add firepower. I'd expect a higher number of guns instead.

I think they do, given what they did in SbS to asteroids.

The 6 megaton guns on the Acclamator are called point defense laser cannons.
