Forgive me if this has been addressed elsewhere, I didn't see anything when I searched. Do Ion weapons do anything to living targets? I assumed not but I can't find any definitive wording. Specifically I am looking at the electromag pulse disruptor in special modifications. It has the ion quality but in the description it says technicians in the outer rim keep them on hand to defend against marauders and pirates. I am sure there could be droid marauders and pirates I imagine some if not most are living creatures. If ion weapons do not affect living creatures can they target an opponents weapon? and how would you rule that?

Sorry I see it has little effect on living creatures that aren't cyborgs.

That being said can they target gear someone is using?

Going by the combat rules, outright destroying a piece of enemy gear is an example of scoring two triumphs.

GMs discretion although I'd be conservative because what's good for the goose is good for the gander.
