Question on Leaky Shields/Armor....

What I would like to emulate is SFB like shields. Basically they have six seperate shields any single one of which can be knocked down, then weapons fire will affect the ship. Since there is no arcs of fire or anything like that in SE4...I would assume a form of Leaky Shields could be used. With the "Leaky" random change emulating the possibility that the an individual shield is knocked down, or if there is already shield damage, the possiblity that damage gets through a "down" shield.

I am already planning on having a form of leaky armor (Hull), which is basically free damage hits. Plus in some instances actually armor. Also some form of Power absorbing shield/armor, which can repair itself.

Any Ideas or thoughts...?
