Human Shield Generators

Human shield generators are standard, low-level shielding outfits that are used on nearly every type of Human ship. Only the Syndicate and some Marauder Pirates have access to human shield regenerators, more effective but power-hungry and heat-generating shield outfits.

D14-RN=
== Description ==
This is the standard shield generator for fighters and interceptors, as well as for many non-combat starships. Although it is possible for a ship to have no shield generator at all recharging its shield matrix only when landed in a hospitable spaceport, life in a deep space is unpredictable enough that most pilots find shield generators to be well worth the space they take up.
== Location ==
The D14-RN is found on most planets with outfitters around human space.
== Information ==
If you have one of these on your ship, you're better off selling it and using that outfit space for other things. The amount of shielding this generator produces is not worth it for the space it takes up.
|-|D23-QP=
== Description ==
This is a slightly more powerful shield generator than the standard model installed in most small ships. If combat lasts long enough, the increased recharge rate is enough to give you an edge, but recharging your shields completely will still take a long time.
== Location ==
The D23-QP can be found around human space.
|-|D41-HY=
== Description ==
This is a more powerful shield generator designed for ships that are likely to see frequent combat, or that have such a large shield capacity that recharging them would take a long time with a smaller generator.
== Location ==
The D41-HY can be purchased from developed human planets with outfitters.
|-|D67-TM=
== Description ==
This shield generator is powerful enough that in combat against some particularly weak ships, they might not even be capable of depleting your shields as fast as they recharge.
== Location ==
The D67-TM can be purchased from advanced outfitters in human space, such as those in the Rim, the Deep and the Core.
|-|D94-YV=
== Description ==
This is the most powerful shield generator available in human space. Because of their large size, D94-YV shield generators are mostly used on large warships, but you can outfit one in a smaller ship if you are willing to sacrifice engine power or weaponry to make space for it.
== Location ==
The D94-YV can be purchased from the most advanced planets in human space.
* Asgard, Naos
* Midgard, Aludra
* Valhalla, Epsilon Leonis
|-|S-270=
== Description ==
A shield regenerator works by subtly modifying the geometry of your shield matrix to make your shield more malleable and therefore much easier to recharge. Unfortunately, this causes your shield to also become less efficient, which draws energy away from your other systems, even when not charging shields, and creates heat.
== Location ==
These can be purchased from Syndicate space if you complete the Checkmate branch of the Free Worlds campaign.
== Information ==
The S-270 can be looted from Marauder ships regardless of which story branch you choose. They're also found on the Syndicate ships occupying Alioth in the Reconciliation branch.
|-|S-970=
== Description ==
The S-970 Shield Regenerator is an advanced type of shield recharging technology. Unfortunately, its power needs are rather high, and the shifts it makes in your shield configuration also result in some feedback that causes heat to build up in the regenerator, even when your shields are at full strength.
== Location ==
These can be purchased from Syndicate space if you complete the Checkmate branch of the Free Worlds campaign.
== Information ==
Like its smaller brother, the S-270, the S-970 regenerator is not normally found in stores but can be rarely found on Marauder bounty targets. It is a major upgrade over standard shield generators, offsetting its downsides with a vastly superior shield recharge in a compact package.
