Re: [GZG] Shield Reinforcement? [TOBECLASSIFIED] [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

A variation of trek shields from the Skunkworks archive may work.

Strength of shields: as per FT screens

Regenerating Shields: Purchase as FTFB armour (5 pts/mass)
Optional rule: Allocate armour to specific arcs @ 1/3 mass per arc
  During the orders phase, any unused engine power can be used to
reinforce Regenerating Shields.  Any damaged shields are "repaired" on a
1:1 basis during damage control.
