It could be made to, you know, work.  Imperials get Orbital Bombardment which targets a large area and is mostly Anti-personnel while the Ion cannon could be a more precise 1-2 shot and be more Anti-Vehicle.

Can't you use the buildings 2142 uses?  Just add them both, and give each team a building with the designated Orbital strike and voila!

Unless that is not possible then feel free to slap me about the thread.

I specifically remember one of the Devs telling me they can't make objects or items spawn like the other kits and commander buildings in PR.

Oribital bombardments, a turbolaser barrage from an orbiting Star Destroyer.... Large impact radius and damage from one strike alone, flash boils water, destroys pretty much anything it hits. Far more powerful than just some anti-infantry weapon. Ion Cannons only work on sheilds and cause emp effects. All an Ion cannon strike would do would be pretty much exactly like the vanilla Emp strike. Temporarily disable the vehicle and screw up a persons veiw, though any good players can still pretty much fire accurately even with that effect.
