Mega Shield

Mega Shield is a large area shield with high capacity.

Properties
Mega Shield is a large shield generator that protects nearby structures and turrets from most projectile weapons, and black holes.

The shield it stop regenerating for a few seconds while its down.

Mega Shield is four times as large as a single Tactical Shield.

The Mega Shield's Area Shield does not benefit from Flash Charge.

Tactical Shield, Mega Shield, and Base Shield technology are the only Area Shields in the game.

Strategies

 * Mega Shield is great for protecting a large area from projectile weapons and black holes.
 * Phalanx and Mega Shield are a great combination for holding off almost all weapons, with the exception of Area-of-Effect weapons, Instant Kills, nuclear weapons (such as Apocalypse or Ragnarok), and Beam weapons.

Countering Mega Shield

 * Beam weapons and Area-of-effect attacks are great for attacking the turrets that are protected by the shield.
 * EMP, Iridium, Neutron, and Force Rounds deal increased damage against the shield. Coupled with sheer numbers of projectiles, the Mega Shield's Shield can die extremely quickly from EMP weapons.
 * Cobra instantly kills the shield if the projectile makes contact.
 * Apocalypse will be incredibly effective against Mega Shield, even if it doesn't hit it directly.

Trivia

 * Base Shield technology has roughly the same shield radius as Mega Shield.
