The lightning cannon of the Victory is not neccessarily better than the Vorlon's. The Victory's cannon is boresighted while the Vorlon has a F arc. This reduces the number of targets you can have available. In addition the Victory can only fire it's cannon every other turn (and be a sitting duck...

If you use "All Stop" then you can't CaF because they are both special actions and you only get one! :wink: CaF with boresight takes a great deal of luck.
