I would suggest a value related to the MASS of the shield generator.
This
allow bigger ships to shrug off more damage, and keeps things balanced
with
standard screens MASS/POINTS ratio wise.

Setting the value at - say - 3 is much too arbitrary, and allows for
abuse.

Figure this is most comperable to "regenerating" armor, so say...

Shields - 3 MASS, 6 POINTS per level

...would be a good point from which to start playtesting.
