The Laser Cannon Incident was a major military engagement in the Vega-Nova War located at Ilios Research Station in western Ilios. The battle saw the deployment of experimental Laser Cannon-based Destroyers by Imperial Nova, by means of which a small Novan force sunk an extremely large Vegan-allied armada with comparatively few casualties. The battle was the first and only significant usage of such powerful Laser Cannon arrays on Survival; even prior to the incident on 15 March, Laser Cannons were already slated for a significant nerf the following evening due to a widespread consensus that they were unbalanced. The Laser Cannon Incident was the most lethal battle of any in Horizon's End history, with a total of 24 ships being sunk over the course of the 90-minute engagement.
