DESCRIPTION​

The Defender class is a highly successful city/base deflector shield type used over several decades. It requires a militatry-grade core to sustain power. It’s exact origins has been debated for quite some time. It is widely believed this designwas the work of the late engineer Aki Nairo, who wanted to machine that can effectively protect settlements after having lost his family to a brutal orbital bombardment. There are, however, rumors that Nairo actually stole inspiration from earlier models by others...

The shield projected by a Defender could protect a large area — usually a single base or city — from outside attack. The shields were sturdy enough to withstand orbital bombardment, as well. The shield could be penetrated during a ground attack, however, as the deflector shield it produced did not prevent ground forces from passing through the barrier and destroying the generator.

As a result, Defender generators needed to be strategically placed and well-defended to prevent leaving them exposed during a ground assault.

LEGALITY​

Legal. Shield generators themselves are not illegal in many independent systems, as their sole purpose is for defense.

INTENT​

To produce a means of protecting a faction’s ground assets from outside assaults, including orbital bombardments.; also, to bring an approved tech item from a previous timeline to our current one.

RESTRICTIONS​

This shield generator type requires a military grade reactor core to sustain enough power to protect a base or settlement. Such costs limit these generators to organizations and planets that can afford them.
