"Are times so trying in the Rebellion that they have armed moisture farmers and used-Droid salesmen against the might of the Empire? Must they leave it to me to train you as soldiers? So be it. Your first lesson is called 'neutralizing a crossfire position.' Do try not to panic."
―Captain Kolaff taunts the Rebels with cannon strategy[1]

A tri-mounted automatic blaster cannon was a crew mounted weapon used by the Galactic Empire. One operator would fire the weapon, while the other fed energy clips to the gun. One such cannon was employed by Captain Kolaff against a Rebel team aboard the Victory-class Star Destroyer Subjugator. The Imperial officer trapped the Rebels in a crossfire between the blaster and a squad of stormtroopers, but the insurgents were able to escape.[1]

Behind the scenes[]

The tri-mounted automatic blaster cannon first appeared in Starfall, an adventure in West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game written by Rob Jenkins and Michael Stern.[1] Starfall was first published in June, 1989.[2]
