[edit] Star Wars: Battlefront

In the Prima's Official Game Guide of Star Wars: Battlefront, it says that the blaster rifle used by rebel soldiers was a BlasTech DH-17 blaster rifle, and it didn't say anything about the blaster rifle being called A280 blaster rifle. Can someone tell me if the names of the models of the weapons in the guide is canon and if the information canon? Also, I'm wondering if they're the same blaster rifle since they looked pretty much identical. I'm just curious since the Star Wars: Battlfront series have a reputation for including non-canon information except in the storyline. Cyfiero 02:13, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

  • The book is probably referencing the common rebel soldier weapon. This is the specialized weapon used by ndor commandos.Xzylongann 21:58, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
    • The DH-17 blaster was the smaller weapon used by the Rebel troopers aboard the Tantive IV in A New Hope. It's pretty clear that the "standard issue" weapons for Rebel soldiers in the Battlefront games is the A280; there's just no reasonable way to confuse the two.--Goodwood (Alliance Intelligence) 05:41, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Focusing crystal

The link redirects to lightsaber crystals, and I can say with some degree of certainty that the A280 blaster rifle is not a lightsaber! Are we sure this weapon includes a focusing crystal? If so, why isn't there an article for a blaster's focusing crystals? Kai Ell 00:51, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
