Ship shielding

[cKnight]

With the way bio-tech has been used for space belts and re-entering atmosphere applications, shouldn't they have shielding using perkiness bio-tech?

They can have, but it will be an exception.

The shield system would be a powered super tech, so I would make it a Super-Science 3 tag (like the one described for weapons), what increases the cost of the ship too much to be common.

Your characters ship (as well as any flag ship or transporting presidents and proxies) can have it if they have the money to do so.

It would probably be about as an advanced and large investment as the Tessers are for Leviathans. To recreate a Mode at that Scale is a big deal.

Edit: I could see smaller ships with perikinetic shielding, helping them better survive the point defenses of massive ships and making dog fights a little more dynamic.

I included something for this in Endless Frontiers (on the Storypath Nexus), and something similar will appear in Prometheus Unbound.

That’s exactly where I see Peri shields being used on Aeon era. Small and fast ships with elite pilots dogfighting.
