After a long hiatus from the game, I am looking to get back into playing it.
In re-reading through the rules, I came across a question regarding Ion Cannons:
Does the fire control damage inflicted by Ion Cannons also impact fire control points or only the fire control rating of the target?
In other words, if a ship has FC:3 and has been hit by 3 points of Ion cannon damage, is it prevented from firing weapons at all (other than 'A' weapons) or does can it still fire 3 batteries, but with 0 added to the die roll (FC: - 3 pts of Ion damage).
Thanks in advance!

Nevermind...apparently I asked the same question back when I first played the game 2 years ago lol. And for those who dont want to dig for the asnwer, the ship in the above question cannot fire any non-A weapons. In other words, Ion Damage DOES reduce FC points, not just PC rating.
