Opps. Goes to show you should *really* let your brain catch up with
your mouth (or fingers) before you say anything.
Yeah, or maybe the shield can be dropped just for a while?
Talking about this, since IIRC the GP04O keeps the I-field up all
the time, how does it fire it's beam cannon? Or is that the reason why the
barrel is so long -- to extend beyond the field itself?
>Hmmm..perhaps that part of the shield used pretty tough metal...
Considering what a beam rifle shot can do to a captial ship, I
somehow doubt that.. or maybe the I-field generator shaping the beam shield
protect it from beam weapons?
I should check this up, but here's a wild-ass theory: The beam
shield uses I-fields to contain and shape the beam energy, right? So the
I-field deflects the beams, while the beam energy detonates and melts the
projectiles and missiles. This still won't solve the kinetic energy problem
though..
