[SIZE=9pt]Special Features:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]+ Lethal: The Makrosian Shield is still incredibly lethal and can be just as useful offensively as it is defensively.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]- Kinetic Force: While the shield may be able to block attacks it does not stop the kinetic force behind the rounds or an attack. Due to where the shield is placed too much kinetic force can shatter the users arm.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]- Slugthrower Rounds: Even being a shield the Makrosian Shield still has problems blocking slugthrower rounds and cannot deflect them fully and the force from the rounds still travels through.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Description: [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]The Makrosian Shield was created due to the Makrosian’s need to innovate in battle and provide them more options on the battlefield when facing off against the Attikan’s. Due to the abundance of lightsaber crystals on their homeworld the Makrosian’s began searching for new ways to utilize these materials and reaching their own goal. Hence the creation of the Makrosian shield, similar to a lightsaber in several ways. Just like a lightsaber the main body of the Makrosian shield is made of pure plasma that is contained in a force containment field. This grants the weapon the same abilities as a lightsaber such as being able to provide defense a large variety of weapons while also being able to switch between three different sizes similar to a lightsabers Dual-phase mechanism. The Makrosian shield is just as lethal as any lightsaber as well, but due to the emitter being built into a gauntlet there will be no throwing it.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]One of the main downsides to the Makrosian shield is that it still does not compensate for the lightsabers weakness against slugthrowers and is perhaps worse off. Slugthrower rounds cannot be fully deflected similar to a lightsaber with stronger materials easily penetrating the shield. The kinetic force behind these rounds also transfers through the shield and due to the position of the emitter can often throw one off balance, send them flying back, or even shatter the bones in the arm bearing the shield. It doesn’t compensate for the lightsabers gyroscopic effect either and due to the size of the shield can be two times worse and makes the shield harder to control without training. The only one’s known to use the Makrosian shield outside the Makrosian royal family, and guard were those that had been deemed worthy by the king.[/SIZE]
