I should have said 'for the turn', but how often does what we write SEEM
obvious to when written. No pumping to level one, and a level three shields
would take special rules: banned, or no pumping, or...

Didn't think about burnout; I like it!

Whether the arcs are six, four, or two in number could be left to taste.
