Shield Generators (For Ships)
A ship can have no more than one shield generator. Ship hulls have a
maximum shield level. The shield power can not be raised beyond the hull ' s rated maximum level. You can place on a ship a shield generator that has a
maximum power that is greater than what the hull is rated for, but if you do the
shield power will only be raised to what the hull is rated for and no higher.
When the shields are turned on the ship burns fuel to provide the shield
power. This amount of fuel is burned every time the shields are used. If a ship
engages in combat more than once in a turn, it will burn this amount of shield
fuel over and over again. If a shield runs out of fuel the shields will not be
raised. If a ship has shield generator damage the shields will only be raised
part way. For example: If a Crane X80 has 80% damage it will only be able to raise
to a level of 16 shield points.
Damage to shield generators and any other ship system ( other than armor )
can be repaired using ship repair units.
