Can someone explain to me how is it used?
How does it "shoot down" incoming hostile units and how big of a range does it have?
Also, if an incoming group have like 20 squads and I shoot them with ION Canon, how much of a dmg does it take? 10% like Missile? Does it have the same amount of dmg with misslie?
Can someone please explain how to use it with some example?
Thanks.

Ok.For example,there are 10 squads coming at you with an eta of 3.You ion cannon 1 time.One of the squads will be delayed by 1 tick and 10 random units will be down to 1 hp.so now you will have 9 squads eta 3 and 1 squad eta 4.
It can also destroy missiles that are targeted towards you or your alliance or missiles still on silo.

#1 I see thanks alot.
How about during their travel time? Do they gain back HP every ticks during ETA? Like you said ETA is 2 after u get hit it becomes 3, during those 3 ticks does those 1 HP units gain HP?
What about you target a colony or OP? Does it also only randomly target on 1 squad and dmg them all to 1 hP?

The units wont gain back health during travel.
If you target a colony or op,10 random units will be downed to 1 health.so it is actually more efficient on tanks than inf.And troops hit on a colony will gain hp per tick.

I see, so 1 tank = 3 infantry so 10 random units maybe all tanks or just 10 soldier so it's efficient on tanks is that what u mean?
Is there a launching time? Or is it instant?
And missile does the same thing is that right? Except it can only be fired on colony or OP?

10 random unit= 10 tanks, 10 veh, or 10 inf... it will be ten...and they eventually gain back their Hp

Random thanks a lot mate.
Damn isn't quite unfair? Tanks already has no boost vs other chasis and now they lose so much against missile and ion canon, damn that's unfair.
