The tech broker already has the enzyme missiles, which attempt to mimic the Thargoid caustic missiles, and they're very cool. Here's an idea for another Thargoid technology copy - the Thargoid's shield mechanism.
Essentially it would function like a shield cell bank - Install the module in an optional internal slot, and then set it to a firegroup. It should behave the same way as the Thargoid's own shielding does - beginning with the shield at full power once deployed, and degrading over time until it fails. The differences from the Thargoid version should be:
- Lower strength
- Quicker degradation time
Also, of course, this module should be mutually exclusive with a shield generator.
Thoughts?
