Shields
Stops your ship from going boom.
Level I
-
- The basic entry in Earth Industries' series of popular shield generators.
-
- NAMI's Cyclotron deflectors absorb a lot of damage, but take more time to regenerate.
-
- Better than a class I at deflecting laser energy; worse at deflecting anything else.
Level II
-
- While not powerful enough to protect against military-grade weapons, the class II deflector provides added defense for freelancers and independent merchantships.
-
- This device ionizes a ship's hull, repelling kinetic and blast damage. The ionization field weakens as the ship's armor is damaged.
Level III
-
- A quantum magnetic field strongly deflects damage from kinetic and blast weapons. It is less effective against laser and particle beam attacks.
-
- Developed by the innovative Solon Industries, this shield generator absorbs almost all laser energy. A ship equipped with these shields cannot fire any laser weapons.
-
- Stronger than a class III deflector using less than half the power.
Level IV
-
- The class III deflector is an integrated system that protects a ship against most forms of damage.
-
- The R1 deflector was developed a few decades ago to protect Fleet ships against the powerful lightning cannons of the Ares Orthodoxy.
-
- This quasi-matter generator protects a starship against blast energy.
-
- The most powerful shield generator in NAMI's Cyclotron series.
Level V
-
- The shield generators sold by Kabuto Defense are among the most powerful and advanced. The Yoroi line of shields ranges from this inexpensive commercial model to more powerful military versions
-
- Each model of the Nephren series is tuned for a different kind of damage. The P25 is designed to defend against particle and ion damage.
-
- High manufacturing costs and poor sales doomed it in the market, but many prefer this vintage deflector over modern imitators.
-
- This generator uses an array of superconducting coils. Individual coils must be replaced to restore the field after damage is taken.
Level VI
-
- The Luminous AI has developed these shield generators for its drones. They are designed to be resistant to particle-beam energy.
-
- The Luminous AI has developed these shield generators for its drones. They are designed to be resistant to thermonuclear energy.
-
- The Luminous AI has developed these shield generators for its drones. They are designed to be resistant to blast energy.
-
- The Luminous AI has developed these shield generators for its drones. They are designed to be resistant to ion energy.
-
- The Ares Cydonian shield generator is a slightly inferior clone of the YoroiS500.
-
- Mammoth deflector shields can absorb immense amounts of damage, but their regeneration rate is lower than competitors.
-
- The Yoroi S500 is the most powerful shield generator available for non-military customers of the Kabuto Defense corporation.
-
- The Invincible-class deflector is extremely powerful. Its one flaw is that it disables all other ship systems when it collapses.
-
- This is an updated version of the R1 deflector, designed to resist the Ares Orthodoxy's lightning cannons.
-
- This is a larger and more powerful version of the quasi-matter deflector.
-
- When used in concert with Omsk armor segments, this deflector increases in strength up to 200 hit points.
Level VII
-
- Used by the Sung Dragon slavers, these shields are a much enhanced version of the Yoroi S500.
-
- A Trenton field generator degrades the intensity of any form of energy. Unlike other shield generators, however, some energy inevitably leaks through.
-
- This is a more powerful version of the Cydonian shield generator.
-
- The 50MW Mammoth deflector is designed for military ships. Like other Mammoth designs, it has high hit points and a low regeneration rate.
-
- Each model of the Nephren series is tuned for a different kind of damage. The B700 is designed to defend against blast and thermonuclear damage.
-
- This is the military version of the S500 shield generator created by the Kabuto Defense corporation.
-
- Commonwealth Fleet labs created this variant of the R5 for its new Britannia-class gunships.
Level VIII
-
- The most powerful version of the R-series deflectors is used on Commonwealth Fleet capital ships.
-
- Plasma shield generators are used on most military ships. Plasma shield generators cannot be used on civilian ships without a special military ID.
-
- This shield generator reflects all ion energy.
-
- The Taikon-10 deflector is optimized to defend against thermonuclear attacks.
-
- This is the most powerful deflector in the Mammoth series.
-
- When used in concert with Omsk armor segments, this deflector increases in strength up to 400 hit points.
Level IX
-
- This byzantine alien device generates a particle shield that absorbs most energy weapons.
-
- The Nephren X1 is an experimental model that defends against ion and positron damage.
-
- This alien shield generator has controls to adjust its strength.
-
- The most advanced shield generator in the Ares Orthodoxy, the Kaidun generator is used by the Ares dreadnought.
Level X
-
- The Lazarus is an experimental shield generator. It has a phenomenal generation rate, but it consumes almost prohibitive amounts of power.
-
- The Taikon-200 deflector is optimized to defend against thermonuclear attacks.
Level XIII
-
- This alien device is designed to defend the giant commandships of the Iocrym.
