Slingshot

Legends Canon version → Linked from 16 articles

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

Slingshots were weapons used by the Ewoks. The weapon was fired by first loading the slingshot with a rock or other small miscellaneous object, then pulling the string back. When the string was all the way back, it would be released, launching the projectile at a target. Slingshots would differ in damage, depending on the projectile. Many slingshots were used during the Battle of Endor.
