some one told me you need 2 ion tokens to effect the large ships.

is this true? and where is this rule?

Yes that is true. The rule is in the rules pamphlets that come with the large ships.

Ion Tokens

Some card abilities may cause a ship to receive an ion token. A large ship is unaffected by a single ion token; the ion token simply remains assigned to the ship. When a large ship has two or more ion tokens assigned to it, it suffers the ion effect as normal. Then the player removes all ion tokens from the ship at the end of the Activation phase.

Good question.

thanks guys, don't know how I missed that.

wonder how many it will take to ion transport or blockade runner then?

42. Simply because that's the correct answer in pretty much any occasion.

That or 32, because 32 is a crap load. I know this because I once commented that a friend had a crap load of a given MtG card (Dark Rituals IIRC). So we decided to see just how many are in a crap load, and counted them. He had 32 so that became the official value for a crap load.

The new upcoming ion missiles will take out those large ships that require 2 tokens nicely. I imagine the new GR75 and CR90 will be immune to small vessel ion weapons.

Eyeon captain.

Dam I don't have 32 tokens.
