[@Azkott] Maybe the rebels have taken hold of an ancient artifact. A giant pyramid that can shoot a golden yellow laser with special properties. The only downside is that it has a short reach, still enough to take down our ship that just so happened to pass near it.

No, just no.

That is not in line with SW canon at all and anyone with a remote knowledge of the lore can tell you that too. The rebels didn't just find a notNecron Monolith in the middle of nowhere and manage to find out how to work the damn thing. This is just way to stupid and beyond any logic of the Star Wars universe.

[@Azkott] I implore you not to follow through on this concept.
