Catapult

Canon Legends version → Linked from 33 articles

Catapults were artillery weapons used to launch projectiles against enemy troops over greater distances. In 32 BBY, the Gungan catapult was used against Trade Federation droids during the Battle of Naboo, throwing large Boomas to deactivate the droids. Later, catapults were used by the Ewoks to defend against Imperial forces such as AT-STs in the Battle of Endor.
