Specialized Shield Generator projected from Star Destroyers in orbit over high priority targets, such Fortresses, Cities or stationary infantry that must hold a critical position
Energy of shield tuned to be highly poisonous to organisms that can drain energy from electrical systems
Special Sensors on the Generator slowly readjust to whatever Organisms try to drain it's systems, to have the best chance of harming them and getting past whatever Biological defense Organisms may be using to resist it's harmful effects
STRENGTHS
Protector: The Shield is a multilayer, capital grade Shield that serves as a scaled down version of an SLD-26 Planetary Shield Generator, able to withstand the very strong energy/Ion attacks as well as immense kinetic attack and is capable of lasting on an almost indefinite basis.
Poisonous: It's energy is tuned to be incredibly poisonous to energy draining Organisms, capable of fatally poisoning them, and very quickly should they attempt to drain it. A secondary function of the first shielding layer. Special Sensors on the Generator slowly readjust to whatever Organisms try to drain it's systems, to have the best chance of harming them and getting past whatever Biological defense Organisms may be using to resist it's harmful effects
Vast Radius. Capable of shielding a very large Fortress or even a small city
WEAKNESSES
Mass Drain: Though energy draining Organisms might still be fatally poisoned, if enough were present to drain the shield energy, they could temporarily open a gap large enough for enemy forces to pass through
Conventional: Only 75 Percent as resistant to Conventional Artillery as it is to unconventional
Stationary: The Star Destroyer must remain in constant, steady geosynchronous orbit to successfully project the shield. This makes it a massive target. It's also why it cannot be used on other space ships
Railguns: Rail Weapons can pierce it after a few hits, causing temporary shield failure in certain areas
Shields others, not the User: It can be used to shield vital locations, but cannot protect the Star Destroyer that uses it.
Exposed array: The dish is highly visible when it unfolds from the rear of the destroyer, making a tempting target, and a large one. Point Defense Starfighting is required when active
Hard to repair: If damaged, it may take days to get it functional again on even a low basis
DESCRIPTION
The Orbit to Surface Shielding System: Make a shield those damn worms cannot reach!
--Sales Pitch
This Specialized Shield System, based on ancient technology, is useful for enshrouding Fortresses and even whole small cities against Bryn'adul attack. A Combination of stolen Sith Imperial Research, as well as Darth Xiphos's experiences, and the research of Nine Lives, one of Xiphos's chief financial benefactors
