jediturkey Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 I seem to bypass it easy with rockets and vehicles. How is it used properly? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiralarchitech Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 It stops Tie/Y-wing bombing runs on your base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jediturkey Posted March 8, 2006 Author Share Posted March 8, 2006 Thank you. Often the in-game text (help) isn't as accurate as the manual. For example, the text on a shield generator doesn't mention protection against orbital bombardments. In fact, it's somewhat inaccurate. It says it only prevents lasers from going through it.

haard Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 You can upgrade it to stop rockets as well, I believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Sith Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 All you have to do is launch it right outside the shield and the missles go right through it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Extas Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 The rocket went through the sheild because the launcher was within the sheild. If the sheild is upgraded then no projectiles can past the sheild, form outside. I did find the Sheild Generator usful against the computer. I can fire out and affect them, but they cannot fire in.

Empirecitizen Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 The shield is usefull if the power generator is under the shield which is strangely rare... I find the shield annoying and it does block damages (u can hear the 'ping' sound of things hiitting the shield). Plus those endless rebel artilery garrison. It just drive yor AT-AT mad. That's why i always go for the powergenerator first( which is always easily reachable. Bombing run can hit but it's still limited because u can only hit the edge as the enemy base is usually located at the corner. The power generator is the most important structure as all the defensive buildings depends on it (excpet those on small build pads). U can only pray that the generator is under the shield....

jediturkey Posted March 9, 2006 Author Share Posted March 9, 2006 Would be nice if we could move buildings around via galatic map. Expansion request? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bateman1982 Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 You can upgrade it to stop rockets as well, I believe If playing the GC, do you perform this shield upgrade on the galactic map or is it done during the land battle itself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImpElite Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 only during the land battle if it's possible to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
