ION Pulse missile does 1 Damage, and adds 2 Ion tokens, yet the following turn, all ION tokens are removed. Whats the point of this missile? am i missing something? Possibly a pilot to combine with this card?

Large ships are only affected by Ion after they receive 2 tokens.

Yep, the Ion Pulse Missiles can ionize large ships in one go, which can be pretty handy. It's also a cheap missile that can be used to dictate your enemy's movement for a turn.

Ahh, I see. Thanks folks. Never played with the big ships yet.

Huge ships also lose energy for every Ion token on them.
